Toby is a 50 lb. lively 7-year-old pup with a big heart and an even bigger personality. He’s a friendly, playful dog who absolutely adores people, including children. Toby loves engaging with his humans, whether it`s through playtime or simply hanging out together. He knows a couple of basic commands like `down` and `come,` and he’s ready to learn even more with a bit of guidance. Toby thrives on activity and would be happiest in a home where he can channel his playful energy and enjoy lots of interaction. While Toby hasn’t lived with other animals before, he has had positive interactions with both small and large dogs and may do well with a calmer canine companion. To help ensure a good fit, we recommend a dog-to-dog introduction here at the shelter. If you’re looking for a spirited dog who’s ready to fill your home with love and joy, Toby might be your perfect match!
