They say, “Love is when you look into someone’s eyes and see their heart.” 

Words have never been truer for sweet Edric.  

Edric is a regal boy who sits proudly and stares lovingly into your eyes while he gets scratches under the chin.  

He hasn’t experienced it yet, but we are certain he also loves long walks on the beach and would enjoy sipping a puptail by your side while watching the sunset. 

Or maybe a long hike and a night under the stars by the campfire is more your style.  Edric says he’d enjoy that too. 

He’ll be a dream to train, but needs a family who understands his breed.  German Shepherds and Australian Shepherds were bred to have jobs and to be mentally stimulated.  They benefit from having clear and gentle training using positive rewards.  They benefit from fun activities like scent work and agility work. And most importantly, they need lots of socialization to feel truly happy. 

So if you’re looking for a sweet, fuzzy boy to spend your years with, Edric would like the chance to share his heart with you.
