About Eddie now Woody


This is Eddie, a 13 week old Thai Ridgeback puppy who came into us a few weeks ago for some extra vet care as there were concerns about some serious health issues with his front legs bending inward.

Xrays showed no problems with his bones or joints, which ruled out many serious things thankfully and the longer he has been in foster the better his front legs have got. After his last set of blood tests on Monday, our vets have diagnosed Eddie with secondary nutritional hyperparathyroidism, this means that his diet as a younger puppy wasn't appropriate or sufficient for his needs, which caused the issues with his legs. He is on a good puppy food now and his blood results are now perfectly within the normal range, so Eddie shouldn't have any issues later in life as long as he is kept on an appropriate, good quality diet.

As you can see by the many photos, he is just the most fantastic, funny, loving little puppy. He is so much more chilled than most pups we've had, he eats well, sleeps well and is doing great with his toilet training. He responds really well with clicker training, is great with other dogs and is best friends with the teenager in his foster home.

As an adult, Thai Ridgebacks change looks so much, he won't always be a tiny wrinkly puppy and we will only home him to someone who has either breed , Ridgeback, or large breed experience. As adults they can be pretty aloof to strangers, they are so loyal and loving to their family and very intelligent.

You must be committed to puppy and adult training, lots of socialising with both other dogs and people as much as possible given the current circumstances. He will be a very active dog and won't be content with a couple of short walks a day.

We will be looking for a home for Eddie with either a female large breed playful dog, or as a single pet in the home. We wouldn't home him anywhere with cats, small animals or birds.

Eddie sleeps at night in a crate but with the door open, if the door is shut he will toilet inside it pretty much straight away.

We would consider homes with older children, Eddie does puppy nip while playing and especially likes boobs !

He is vaccinated, chipped, flea and worm treated and will be adopted on a strict neutering contract.

His adoption donation is £250, applications to www.harleyshounds.org if you have read his write up thoroughly and fully match his adoption criteria only please.
