ADOPT A PET
This is Eddie, who we lov-
ingly refer to as Fast Eddie.
He was found around the
Fourth of July by a caring
woman who tried to find out
if he had humans looking for
him She was unable to keep
him herself and we were
happy to take him in. Eddie
is a Black Lab approximately
seven years old. He gets along
well with other dogs, cats and
children and would do great
in a slower-pace home. He
is a very sweet boy that just
wants to love and be loved. If
you would like to meet Eddie
