How do I contact the shelter about EDDIE?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Rushton Dog Rescue 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 — Rushton Dog Rescue 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 Rushton Dog Rescue 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.

EDDIE

Mixed Breed · Male

*EDDIE HAS MADE AMAZING PROGRESS WITH US, WE FEEL HE CAN BE ADOPTED NOW TO THE CORRECT ENVIRONMENT* We saved Eddie after he was being passed around on a social media platform and given away to one bad home after another. He was forced to wear an electric shock collar which in turn has caused him to have some behaviour issues. Eddie is a very spritely boy who is full of fun energy, he is good with other dogs but does like to chase and play a lot and can become quite frustrated with them if they do not want to interact with him. We believe he may be better as an only dog due to this factor, however we do also believe that it depends on the type of person who would be his new humans and what experience and environment they hold. Eddies adoptive home must have experience with his breed, he is very outgoing for a Pomeranian and has and will nip and tell you if he isn’t happy with something. We do feel he will be able to adapt into a home but it will only work if it’s with the correct understanding, patient people. Eddie HATES his neck area being touched, he does not like a collar and also doesn’t really like being groomed so these things MUST be taken into consideration. Eddie cannot be homed near children due to his little man attitude. He is very sweet in many ways and once he feels comfortable he’s happy to be cuddled but everything is on his own terms, we do believe he may be more settled in a home environment with one person so he can have them all to himself and they can get to understand his quirky ways! Eddie loves food and is very food driven which helps when trying to do certain things with him. Eddie loves being outside mooching around and doing his thing, we would love for him to have a big garden (fully secure) so he can safely run and play without the worry of having to be on a lead all the time being walked. He just doesn’t really like the whole lead going on and off.. it’s due to his treatment before us saving him which is understandable. Eddie would be perfect for someone who has had a small dog with a sassy personality and willing to allow him to be himself but in turn understand that he can react when put in a position he isn’t happy with. Being that he’s small, young and has many positive traits we do really want to try and see if we can find him a safe loving home where he will be understood. There’s lots more we can tell you about this little handsome dude and his quirky ways as we’ve gotten to know him pretty well since saving him. He’s been neutered and was actually pretty well behaved in the vets. He is extremely comical which certainly helps with being his cheeky naughty self. He has made such brilliant progress, he is happy for us to show him affection and love, he has really learnt that not all us humans are harmful and is trust has grown hugely. We’re very proud of him and will be so happy if we find him the correct home for him!

About EDDIE

What life with EDDIE looks like

EDDIE is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Rushton Dog Rescue in Langport.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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.
