Eddie, a 10-month-old dog with a steel gray coat and white markings, is looking for his forever family through the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria.
The 44-pound pup came to the AWLA as a local stray and has since charmed volunteers with his friendly, affectionate personality and notably calm demeanor for such a young dog.
“He has a friendly personality and would love to cuddle with you after a day of outdoor explorations,” said Maria Stebbins, an AWLA volunteer.
The medium-sized pup enjoys long walks, taking in the sights and smells along the way. Eddie is food-motivated and already knows how to sit on cue, which shelter staff say should make training smooth and enjoyable.
“I would love to cuddle up with you on the couch at the end of a long day,” reads Eddie’s adoption profile.
Thanks to a generous donor, Eddie’s adoption fees have been paid.
Those interested in meeting Eddie can visit the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria at 4101 Eisenhower Ave. or call 703-746-4774. The shelter is open Tuesday through Sunday.
