EDISON (Eddie) is a VERY smart, affectionate young pup with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Edison is incredibly intelligent and already knows several commands including sit, lie down, and shake. He’s highly food-motivated and eager to learn, which makes training both fun and rewarding. In fact, he’s so clever that he’s even figured out how to open doors with pull-down handles! Once he learns how to do something he won’t forget it; usually this is in your best interest, but if it’s in Edison’s, he’ll quickly learn when you teach him another way/ YOUR way! This sweet boy is very devoted to his people and loves being part of the family. If someone leaves the room, Ed will often wait patiently by the door or try to follow them. When his people are in different places, he may happily trot back and forth between them to make sure everyone is still together. Eddie’s favorite moments are when the whole family is in the same place. Like all Aussies at 9m old, Eddie is still very much a playful puppy. He loves carrying things around in his mouth—blankets, sleeves, or anything he can grab—and gets especially excited about toys and chew items. Plastic bottles are one of his favorite things to chomp on, and he enjoys interactive playtime that keeps him busy and engaged. At DASH we suggest buying a 12 pack of men’s socks at somewhere like Ross or TJ Maxx put plastic bottles in them and tie a knot at the top. It’s the least expensive and most entertaining long lasting dog toy you can invest in! Edison is also quite the foodie! While he enjoys healthy treats like carrots, apples, and even a little yogurt, his absolute favorite reward is cheese. Because he is still learning manners and can get jumpy when excited, he would likely do best in a home with older children or adults who can continue his training and provide plenty of activity and structure. An active home where he can play, learn, and stay mentally stimulated would be ideal for him. With his intelligence, loyalty, and playful spirit, Edison is sure to be a wonderful companion for someone ready to continue guiding this bright young dog as he grows into the amazing adult he’s meant to be.

  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.
