My story

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

Tobina is our playful and happy foster. She is in excellent health, weighing a healthy 57 pounds. She has quickly adapted to house training, displaying a happy and playful demeanor since her arrival in our care last Saturday. Tobina’s affectionate nature shines through as she craves companionship and involvement in all household activities. Whether you’re weeding the yard or relaxing indoors, she eagerly seeks to be by your side. While Tobina’s enthusiasm for life is undeniable, it’s worth noting that she may not be the best fit for households with cats, and her interactions with other dogs require further observation and possibly some training. Despite her goofball personality, Tobina is a quick learner and responds well to positive reinforcement. Tobina’s interests include car rides, occasional treats, fetch, and playtime with her favorite toys, particularly those with squeakers. She enjoys regular walks and would benefit from a social lifestyle that keeps her engaged and fulfilled. As Tobina continues to be in foster, we are confident that she will make a wonderful addition to a loving family willing to provide her with the guidance and attention she deserves.
