My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi! I`m Toto and I`m looking for a forever home with a family who has a lot of patience and love to give me while I learn how to trust.

I`m about 7 years old and I`ve been at SPARC for qa few years now. I came here with several of my friends. They all got adopted, but I`m still waiting for my new family. Luckily, I went to live with a nice foster family for a while where I` learned lots of new things, like how to trust. One reason I`m probably still waiting for a home is because I never learned how to be touched. I`m shy and run away when people try to pet me. But that doesn`t mean I don`t like people because I really do love people. I`m just scared.

I enjoyed following my foster mom everywhere she went, curling up next to her on the sofa and sunbathing in the backyard. I enjoyed playing with my foster dog sister and brother. Actually, I get along well with all small dogs, and here at SPARC I hang out with all the other little dogs while we wait for a home.

I`m crate trained and I`m almost fully house trained, I would just need to learn the right place to pee in a new yard.

I`m starting to understand and trust when people put their hand towards me (because they might have a treat!) You`ll have to be patient with me as it`s going to take a little longer before I`m comfortable enough to get petted.

Will you please come and meet me and take me home where I can continue to learn to trust? I`ve been waiting such a long time, and I promise to love you with all my heart!!!
