Here's what the humans have to say about me:
PLEASE READ TROY’S BIO IN DETAIL TO ENSURE THAT HE WILL BE A GOOD FIT FOR YOU AND YOUR LIFESTYLE BEORE APPLYING. PEASE NOTE: TROY IS BEING FOSTERED IN THE MILTON, ON AREA
We at All Paws Matter believe in the benefits of post-adoption training for our dogs and their families. This allows for continued socialization, learning and helps to create a well-mannered and balanced dog. This is now a requirement in our adoption process. Proof of training classes for puppies specifically is required before adoption.

Troy is a lovable pup who enjoys cuddling up with his favourite person and foster sibling. He has the cutest ears you ever did see and loves to prance outside to his heart’s content. Troy isn’t shy about asking for pets, as he likes to place his head under your hand to let you know it's scratching time!
Due to his blindness, Troy needs a gentle and patient soul(s) who will look after him, one who will give him time to sniff out and adjust to his new surroundings. But once he knows the layout of a new place and all of the smells that go with it, he is ready to enjoy all life has to offer.
Troy gets along with new dogs he meets and walks well on a leash. But slow introductions are best as he can be hesitant with new people. Care and patience will help him adjust. However, he has not been cat-tested but does not seem to have a prey drive when out and about.
With a face that says love me, Troy enjoys the finer things in life, like his squeaker toys, soft chew treats, and snuggling up on the couch with his human. He is crate-trained and house-trained. A house with a secure fenced-in yard or a spacious condo would be the ideal home for him, one that is quiet and without younger children to give him time to adjust to his new surroundings due to his blindness.
How can you not look into his sweet face and see a gentle soul just looking for his rightful place by is new companion's side? If you feel you would be the right fit for Troy, please fill out an adoption application at https://www.allpawsmatter.ca/apply-to-adopt/.
All APM dogs are UTD on vaccinations, microchipped, spayed or neutered, dewormed, Heart worm (4dx snap) tested and arrive with a health certificate. They come to adopter with a harness, a collar and two leashes for safety.
NOTE: The above description is relevant to this dog in its current and previous setting. Home changes and adopter personalities can bring out different behaviours not previously seen. We also do not claim or suggest that our dogs are hypo-allergenic or that they shed/do not shed.
BREED DISCLAIMER: We are never sure of the breed of our dogs since they arrive off the streets or shelters. It is a guess only!
