Please email the completed application to newleashrescue2018@gmail.com

Eddie came from a reservation in tough shape. He's been healing from mange, and he looks great now. Eddie is around 6-8 years old estimated.

Eddie's teeth are in tough shape - with most worn down and damaged - likely from a life of trying to chew on a chain or kennel. Eddie is going to require a family who is willing to do twice a year dentals to make sure his mouth stays in as best condition as possible.

Now that Eddie is getting what he needs, he's trying to play and he can be mouthy at times but he's pretty gentle. He is not recommended with kids under age 5, if that may be bothersome to them. He has started to play with other dogs a bit. He is working on house training and crate training and doing well at going outside in a fenced in yard.

Eddie hasn't had the best life until he came to rescue. His adopters have the chance to show him his best life.

Eddie has had a couple dental cleanings, been neutered, core vaccines updated, as well as bloodwork, fecal testing, heartworm testing, dewormer, microchipping, and preventatives.

Adoption fee is $400.00 + tax (no checks)

Please inquire if this dog will be at our adoption event at the Cottage Grove PetSmart on Saturday from 11-2 looking for a home!


Our fosters do the best they can to provide all information about the animal's background and temperament while in foster care in their home. An adopters routine and home environment is likely going to be different than that in their foster home.

Sometimes there is more that comes out about a dog's personality once they have been able to settle in a home and truly become comfortable. There are great articles out there written about the different stages a pet goes through after adoption, discussing transitions that happen at 3 days, 3 weeks, and 3 months. We highly recommend reading about this - it will help you understand the transition your new pet goes through.
