s spent time fending for himself in the wild, and his journey has left him with some challenges. Now he desires to be part of a family to share his big capacity for love. Eddie is 8 years old, neutered, 13 lbs, up-to-date on shots, microchipped and has been diagnosed with PTSD. During rare episodes, his brain misfires, and he may lunge and attempt to bite or fully bite. These episodes vary in length and frequency. Consistent training, structure, and professional support are needed for him to continue progressing. He has begun to relax, wag his tail, and has started to play. In his calmer moments, he LOVES being petted, rolling in the grass for a back scratch, and curling up in the sun for a nap. He enjoys belly rubs and has learned to be comfortable with gentle touch all over his body. Eddie thrives in a quiet, predictable home where he can feel safe and understood. Eddie’s Favorite Things: Going for walks and new adventures (he’s an excellent car rider with his seat belt). Sunbathing on the patio. Swim therapy, which boosts his confidence. Learning new things (he’s very food-motivated!).What Eddie Needs in a Home: A calm, stable environment with no children. Ideally a single woman who can commit to his training and care. A wire crate to help him feel secure during episodes, at night, or when guests visit. Grain-free food. Patience, consistency, and a willingness to continue professional training.Eddie has lived with other dogs and cats in foster care. He would prefer being your one and only. He is house- and leash-trained. He will pee in the house at times, acting like he is still living outdoors. Most importantly, Eddie needs someone who will give him TIME — to trust, to feel safe, and to grow into the loyal, loving best friend he has the potential to be. He is not perfect, but he is deeply worth it. If you are looking for a one-of-a-kind companion and have the heart, patience, and stability to help Eddie continue his journey, he just might be the little dog who changes your life. Eddie (Eggnog) is ready for his next chapter. Could it be with you?

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
