My name is Edgar!

One day, Edgar wandered down the road of one of our southern rescue partners. It was his lucky day! He was extremely thin and hesitant to come to his would-be rescuer. It took less than 5 minutes to entice him close enough to get a lead on him. He did not resist once the lead was put over his head. He was happy to jump in and ride in the truck to his new life. He has since gained 20 pounds.

Edgar is a very cautious boy. He is very happy to play with his foster friends but often prefers to stay at arms length from his his foster dad while walking in the yard .Maybe he reminds him of someone.. hard to say But when he sits, Edgar is very happy to go to him and get his ear rubbings and his high praises.
Edgar love the young woman that comes to help with Edgar and friends care. She can pat him anytime she likes

Edgar has a big yard to play in and there really isn't much need for a leash. But when there is, Edgar is learning to master it. He likes to go where ever the leash takes him!



Edgar is a smart boy, he is kennel-trained, knows his daily routines, and knows just what to do when it is time to go out... it helps if there a little treat waiting for him.

His best friend is a female German Shepherd and they spend hours playing in the yard.
He hasn't had the opportunity to show his manners around little children yet. none near by. So until he is able to meet some, which we hope will be soon, it best that he be in a home with children over 12yrs



What Edgar needs a patient family willing to continue to work with Edgar and teach him about living in a home and trusting humans. He has come so far already.
