Toby

Toby - would make a fantastic family dog - he is very affectionate and eager to please. He has deep dark brown eyes, big enough to melt even the hardiest of harts. His short black and white coat is low-maintenance and very soft to touch. Toby also gives the best cuddles and as such this will be the key attribute that his carers will miss when Toby finds his fur ever home.

Toby could be described as a lively puppy who loves his play sessions, but he's not hyper. Toby is proving to have good attention when commands are being given and has learnt very quickly that jumping dose not get you attention, he is learning to sit at your feet and wait for a pat. He has also learnt to sit if he wants his dinner bowl put down, it only took 2 meal sessions for this training to click – supper smart. His carers are currently working on stay – if you want an intelligent and loving pup Toby is the one for you.
Toby is housetrained to use a flap door - he learned this almost by himself within a day of arriving - such a very smart pup! He is almost completely toilet trained – with the occasional wee accident.

Toby gets along with other dogs and also with cats. He is currently fostered with a couple who have an 18 month old cattle dog, both of them love to play tug-a-war.

Toby sleeps outside in a kennel with his foster brother Columbus, the fist night of arriving at a new home puppy’s always whimper or show signs of distress however Toby simply curled up in his kennel with Columbus and went to sleep. His foster carers are extremely impress with Toby’s care free nature, he is fine with being locked out of the house when its time for work or bed time. When left on his own without his buddy Columbus to keep him company, he can be found curled up on the back step next to the doggy door a sleep; waiting for the family to arrive home.

His carers have seen no aggression in Toby, you can put your fingers in his food bowl while he eats and all you get is a lick of affection for your troubles, he is also equally happy for you to take the bowl away with food still in it – he doesn’t put up a fight or complain.

His carers are currently working on Toby learning to take treats gently from their hands and are 100% sure he will master this task with ease over the next week or so. Toby is also a dream to walk on a lead, he naturally trots along side you – there is no pulling or tugging on the lead, his carers only wish their dog Columbus was as obedient when walked on a lead!

Toby dose love shoes, please note he dose not destroy them, he simply takes them to his bed and curls up with them however Toby’s carers are teaching him that shoes are not toys. Toby has also been digging a few holes in the yard – this is very normal for puppies however as with the shoes his carers are teaching him that digging is unacceptable and have so far been encouraged with Toby’s progress over the last week – no new holes J

Tobster is a very sweet little pup who deserves a loving home that is prepared to give lots of cuddle time, and in return, you will be rewarded with more love and devotion then you could have ever imagined.
