About Toby
To be or not to be, meet Toby! This charming dachshund and terrier mix is almost 7 years old and is ready to find a loving new family. With the perfect balance of affection and independence, Toby is truly a character with unique charm.
Toby is great with people he knows well, showering them with affection once he feels comfortable. He has the ability to coexist with other dogs, but he would really thrive in a home where he is the only canine companion. This way, he can soak up all your attention and, of course, find the best napping spots around the house!
While Toby's great with kids aged 13 and over, he does appreciate some quiet time to himself, especially in a bustling household. It's his way of recharging before he's back to hanging out and spreading joy with his amazing personality.
If you're looking for a furry friend who's loving yet appreciates his own space, Toby might just be your perfect match. He's waiting to bring his warm heart and unique charm to a home where he can enjoy life to the fullest.

Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
