My story

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

Hey there, future best friend! My name's Tobi, and I'm a 4-year-old Lab mix with a heart full of love to give. Let me tell you a bit about myself and why I might be the perfect addition to your family.

First off, I'm a bit bashful when you first meet me, but once I warm up, I become a loyal and constant companion. I love being close to my humans, and I'll stick by your side through thick and thin. My previous home had kids and even a cat, and I did just fine with all of them, so I'm pretty adaptable and friendly.

When it comes to baths and brushing, I might be a little shy at first, but I promise I warm up to it. With a gentle touch and some positive reinforcement, I soon come to enjoy these moments of pampering. Car rides? I'm okay with those too, so we can go on all sorts of adventures together!

I'm a smart cookie and know commands like 'sit' and 'stay.' With a little patience and some tasty treats, I'm always eager to learn more. I had a few potty accidents in my previous home, but once I figured out the routine of being let out more, I got the hang of it. Now, I'll go to the door to let you know when I need to go out-just another sign of how much I want to be a good boy for you.

One of my favorite things is just being with my people. Whether it's playing in the yard or curling up for a movie night, I'm happiest when I'm with you. I might be a bit shy at first, but once I know you're my friend, I'm all in with wagging tails and happy grins.

So, if you're looking for a gentle, loyal, and loving companion who just needs a little time to warm up, I'm your guy! Let's make each day a new adventure filled with love and joy. I'm ready to be your faithful friend and bring a lot of happiness into your life. What do you say? Ready to take a chance on me?
