Meet Toby!

10/26/24 - Update from Toby’s foster family:

Toby is essentially completely potty trained, he goes on each walk, and sits by the door if he needs to go out back during the day while I’m working. Additionally, he has been trained to eat in his crate, creating a sense of home in there, which has helped his separation anxiety when I leave and have to put him in the crate. 

I have socialized him with many dogs, whether on walks, with my family dog, friends dogs, at restaurants, etc. He has shown no signs of aggression or made a move at any other dog. He still has the tendency to playfully jump on them occasionally, but usually it is a mutual playful move.  He tends to have an eagerness to engage with other dogs.  I believe it is pure excitement that he hasn’t learned to control in a social way yet.  This has been something I am continually trying to overcome with him.

Original Rescue Story:

Toby is an adorable Baja mutt. Rescued from the streets of Ensenada Mexico late July.
We don't know his breed, he is likely a super mutt with many different breeds but his primary is likely some sort of shepherd although sometimes he gives some boxer vibes, ha! He is a sturdy handsome dude but doubt he will be very large. Likely full grown will be in the 40-60 pound range. 

Toby stayed at Casa de arwob through the summer which means he is crate trained. loves car rides, enjoys dog friends and cat friends too! He ADORES humans and would be wonderful around children.
Tobys new adopters should be looking forward to taking dog training seriously to make sure he grows up to be a well mannered pup, puppy training is a must when adopting young dogs!

In September Toby lucked out and has been fostered in a home with young working adults in a home with a yard as a single pet and they have this to say about this sweet boy:

'Toby is a very sweet, loving, and mature 6 month old pup. Toby loves being around people, and often wants love and affection from those he’s around. He is not shy at all, and will follow you most places you go! Toby has done great socializing with other dogs, and loves to play with other dogs of all sizes. Toby is very well on his way to being fully potty trained, outside of an occasional accident. He is pretty food motivated, and loves his treats. 
 
He’s working through his teething stages so make sure there are plenty of toys for him to chew on. Toby has been trained to eat both meals in his crate.
 
Toby sleeps a good amount of the day, so if you work from home no need to worry about him interrupting your work day. He loves to go on a few walks a day. 
 
Toby has not been around small children yet, however based on his gentle nature and calm presence, I would guess he will be great around kids. He’s been the best companion, and whoever gets Toby is getting a best friend for life.'

To meet this handsome little dude please submit an adoption application online at ARWOB.org 
Meet and greets are scheduled in the Pacific Beach area.

More about this rescue

The A.R.W.O.B. group is based in San Diego, CA and operates mostly in Mexico as well as Southern California and will come to the aid of any animal in need which crosses our path. Our belief is to do what we can in order to “Make a difference in their lives.” From experience we have observed and feel the companion animals of Mexico are in the greatest need and accordingly we focus much of our efforts in Baja, Mexico. However, we certainly extend our help to our north of the border critters by accepting relinquished family pets, exiting both dogs and cats from the shelters of San Diego and of course by working in conjunction with other animal rescue groups in the community

Visit our website www.ARWOB.org to learn more about us.
