Toby (On Trial 27/4/14)

Toby is a 5 year old, small, mixed breed (Mini Foxy, Chihuahua Jack Russell, Corgi?) boy. He is house trained and has come from a family with young children. He plays well with my other small dog. He happily plays outside and also comes inside to be with us and to sleep in his bed. He needs to be able to come inside and be part of the family, especially to hang with the kids if you have them.

Toby enjoys chewing a bone or playing ball. He loves a walk of course and is good on lead. He's not a barker or a jumpy dog at all. He has beautiful manners, waiting to be invited inside or on furniture. He is a shy affectionate boy that really warms up to you with wags and belly rubs.

Toby is smart and easy to train. He doesn't fret when left home alone but likes to be inside when people are home. He's a beautiful, handsome boy but his photos don't really do him justice. He has softly rounded ears and pretty blonde coat. He would be fine as an only dog or with other small dogs. He's not good with cats. He's the perfect dog to grow up with the children or keep you company no matter what your age.

Toby's family very reluctantly had to let him go when their landlord insisted on "no pets". He is still a young dog and ready and eager for the rest of his life in wonderful new home.
