My story

Bureau of Dog Law Enforcement—Kennel License #2617Could he do well with kids? Yes, with children 14 years and older.Could he do well with other dogs? Eddie is selective of the dogs he will tolerate and there is the possibility of multiple meets.Has this dog lived with cats? Unknown. Not recommended. [The Lycoming County SPCA does not “cat test” dogs per the Association of Shelter Veterinarian’s Guidelines for Standards of Care in Animal Shelters.]---What volunteers have to say about this animal:Meet Eddie – Shy Soul, Zoomie King, Total HeartthrobEddie is a three-year-old medium-sized American Pit Bull Terrier mix with a soft spirit, a playful streak, and a face that could launch a thousand “awws.” Just look at that patch over his eye. And those slightly bowed back legs that make his happy trot extra charming. And that nose! Built for boops!Eddie’s been waiting quietly, patiently, for someone to look past his initial hesitation and really see him. And once you do? He’ll put his sweet face right in your hands and soak up every kind word like it’s sunshine. When he decides he likes you (and he likes most people), he’s gentle, affectionate, loyal, and the goodest boy. What Makes Eddie So Special:- A gentle treat taker and a total cuddle seeker- LOVES toys of all kinds—plush, squeaky, chewy, he’s not picky- A trotter on walks, with the cutest little hop in his step- Gives legendary zoomie performances (10/10, no notes)- Enjoys quiet, one-on-one time where he can let his guard downWhat Eddie Needs in a Home:- A calm, dog-savvy household with children 14+- Possibly another dog, but multiple meets will be needed—he’s selective- No cats (he says thank you for understanding)- A family willing to go slow at first, to give him space to get comfortable- Patience, love, and lots of “you’re so handsome”s whispered into his furEddie doesn’t put on a show when he first meets you—he takes his time. But once you’re in his circle, you’ll find a gentle, silly, deeply loving boy who just wants to be someone’s good dog.He’s not flashy. He’s not loud. But he is so worth it.--- Condensed Staff Assessment Notes: Eddie is very tentative until he is comfortable. He loves all toys but will need work on his basic commands. He is extremely dog selective and may need several meets.---For more resources to help with at any step of
