A year ago, Edison, who had lost his home in the 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake, was featured in the Adopt Me! section looking for a new family. Well, he finally caught a break.
Edison now lives in Chiba Prefecture with his new family: Anne and Masato Makino, and their children Yuta and Leah.
¡°Eddie, who is now 16, was perfect from the moment we met him,¡± says Anne, originally from the United States. ¡°We did consider his advanced age quite a lot before making the decision to adopt, and in the end decided we wanted him in our lives because he is so sweet and gentle.¡±
The dog was somewhat nervous at first, and the Makinos were told that he might not even be able to relax during the car ride home.
¡°But the day we took him home, both kids fell asleep on either side of him in the back seat,¡± says Anne. ¡°When we turned around, Eddie was lying down with his chin on one of them. We were so relieved.¡± Indeed, Eddie fit right in ¡ª ¡°as if he had lived with us his whole life.¡±
A gorgeous white dog, Eddie turns heads wherever he goes. ¡°Last year, we stopped at a roadside station and within an hour he had four different people approach him to comment on how beautiful he was,¡± says Anne. ¡°Humble as he is beautiful, he took all the attention in stride, while we stood alongside him beaming with pride.¡±
