Eddie had two dogs at home, ones that he loved more than any human he ever could. His newly adopted Labrador retriever puppy was on a leash, happily running alongside him as they walked around downtown Riverdale. Eddie had adopted the pup from the shelter, originally there to volunteer for service hours for the team and ended up falling in love. His parents weren’t the happiest but realized why the puppy was amazing. It was several months old and saved from some puppy mill in Greendale that got shut down. Eddie looked away for a moment at his phone, and didn’t realize that his puppy , Barry, wasn’t next to him but in the arms of a person. “Hey..ran off..didn’t he?” Eddie asked, as Barry looked at him with a happy look and began to lick the other person. “He’s a little slow, like his owner..which might be me.”
