SpecialtiesAlert · Interrupt · Provision

One of the smallest labradoodles ever in the program — and one of the mightiest. Eddie has already accomplished everything asked of him, including a nightmare-interruption task he performs to perfection.

Eddie has entered the final phase of his training program. Now paired with Frank, an Army veteran, he is focused on refining key task queues and strengthening their incredible bond. To keep his instincts sharp throughout the training process, Eddie has been working at a local 911 communications center, where he has played an important role in helping dispatchers manage and mitigate the daily stressors of their demanding work environment.
