Eddie

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Eddie is a small dog with a big personality. He is a spirited terrier cross who comes alive in our enclosed fields – running, sniffing and especially splashing about in any water he can find. His love for the outdoors and his playful nature shine through when he is in his element. Eddie is loving and loyal once he gets to know you, but he does have his quirks and needs a bit of time and patience to build trust. Because of this, Eddie is looking for an adult only home with no other pets. Ideally he would be looking for a home in a rural area, where life is quieter and calmer as he finds moving traffic very stressful. Due to issues in his previous home, Eddie would benefit greatly from working with a trainer or behaviourist who can help guide him and build his confidence in a positive way. With the right support and consistency, Eddie has the potential to thrive and form a deep bond with his new person. Eddie isn't the right fit for everyone, but someone with a big heart and quiet home, he could be the perfect companion. If you feel you may be able to offer Eddie the perfect home, please fill in the form below and a member of staff will be in contact.

About Eddie

What life with Eddie looks like

Eddie is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Assisi Animal Sanctuary in United Kingdom.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Eddie, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Eddie?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Assisi Animal Sanctuary handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Eddie on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Eddie if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Assisi Animal Sanctuary will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Eddie already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Eddie isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Assisi Animal Sanctuary early rather than rehoming privately; they know Eddie and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
