Meet Eddie! Eddie
is a sweet, affectionate Vizsla who is ready to find a home where he
can enjoy the love, attention, and exercise he deserves.
Although
Eddie turned 9 in February, he still has plenty of the energy and
enthusiasm for which Vizslas are known. He loves trips to the beach,
splashing in the water, running, hiking, playing fetch, and going for
walks. When the adventure is over, he'll happily curl up in your lap for
a nap. At about 60 pounds, he's on the smaller side and firmly believes
he's the perfect lap dog!
Eddie
enjoys being around people, children, and other dogs. He only barks to
alert you or to express his excitement. He sleeps quietly through the
night and would be thrilled to share your bed, though he's content on a
dog bed if that's your preference.
He
is house-trained, rides well in the car, and is just ... easy. Eddie is
not crate trained, but he is trustworthy when left alone in the house.
After especially long days by himself, he may chew on a blanket out of
boredom. Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond his owner's control,
Eddie currently spends 12–15 hours a day alone, including weekends, and
has been for some time. He needs a home where he can be a bigger part
of someone's daily life.
Eddie
knows a few basic commands and would enjoy working with his person to
learn more. On walks, he is not reactive toward other dogs other than
wanting to meet them. He does pull on the leash initially, but with
regular exercise and consistency, this will improve. And he puts up with
nail trims, such a good boy!
Eddie
has not lived with cats and has the typical prey drive of a sporting
breed, so a cat-free home is best. He enjoys small dogs and was raised
with children ages 4 and older. The chaos is fine with him - haha!
Eddie
is healthy, neutered, microchipped, current on his rabies vaccination,
and comes with a recent senior blood panel for his future veterinarian.
If
you're looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who wants nothing
more than to share his life with you, Eddie may be the perfect match.
