Eddies Storey

Handed in to a Police station in East Sussex as a stray on the 9th October 2011 his plight started. After spending three nights in Police custody he was collected by the Hasting Borough Council Dog Warden and placed into the Council pound.

Unwanted and not loved he remained there looking for a new home for three months. As part of an exchange programme to get more dogs rehomed he was exchanged with dogs from Manchester and spend a further ten week seeking a new home.

Visited and seen by our General Manager Paul, he took him home for rest bite in April 2012.

He has remained with Paul ever since, acting as an ambassador for Merseyside Dogs Home, Eddie visits schools and fete’s promoting responsible dog ownership.
