Neighborhood charmer

LOVE THAT FACE- Eddee, a 2-year-old English bulldog, unwittingly brings the community together. "People always smile when they see Eddee," said owner Gillian Peratis. She and her family have lived in the Liberty Canyon neighborhood of Agoura for about 10 years but didn't get to meet many neighbors until they got the pooch. His friendly disposition, combined with his frowny wrinkled face, sparks conversations every time Peratis takes him out, she said. And when Eddee's tired of walking, he hops into a retrofitted baby jogging stroller that Peratis brings along.
