EDDY - LABRADOR RETRIEVER / RETRIEVER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Retriever / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 200. Eddy is a curious, lovable boy who simply wants to hang out with his person. He stays calm even in chaotic environments, though he appreciates having his kennel as a quiet place to decompress. Eddy is a gentle, low-key guy who loves being outdoors and exploring the world around him. He’s a big fan of bones (toys… not so much) and walks like a champ on a leash. While he may be starting to gray, don’t let that fool you; he’s more than ready to be your next adventure buddy. Eddy recently had a tumor submitted for testing. His histopathology results showed an uncommon malignant tumor. While metastasis is possible, determining this would require additional diagnostic staging, which RSR is not pursuing at this time. Tumors of this type can sometimes recur in the same location. Our surgeon noted that the pathologist referenced a study indicating a median survival time of approximately 30 months. Eddy is feeling well and enjoying life, and we remain focused on finding him a loving home where he can continue to thrive for the time he has left . Eddy is from a local impound.
