Likes: Edgar loves his people so far. He is new to rescue so we are still learning more about him. 

Dislikes: No CATS for this boy. 

Personality: Edgar is a goofy boy who loves attention. He seems to be high energy so he would enjoy daily exercise. 

Temperament: Edgar has had no issues with people or other dogs that we have seen.

Energy level: Edgar still has puppy energy. He would need a bit a exercise daily. 

Favorite activities: WEdgar loves to play!

Good with: Dogs and people. Has had no issues with strangers yet. True to his breed as he gets more comfortable he would need slow introductions. Edgar tested well with other dogs. 

Not good with: No cats for Edgar. 

Housetrained: Yes 

Crate trained: Yes 

Challenges: Edgar has not been taught any commands or manners. Edgar’s adopter will need to commit to obedience lessons for Edgar so he can learn to be a great example for the breed. Edgar will need leash training as he has never been on one previously. 

Any Medical issues? None 

What would be the best kind of home? Edgar would do well in an active home that is committed to teaching him manners and providing him with the attention he has never gotten. Edgar will only be adopted to a home without other male bully breeds to prevent same sex aggression which is common for the breed. He will also need a fenced in backyard.
