My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Toby: Neutered black & rust 4½ year old fully vetted male with docked tail and natural ears.
Toby came to IMPS as an owner surrender. Our home is fortunate to have Toby as part of our pack even if it is only temporarily as his foster home. Toby fit in immediately with our 5 dogs (large & small) and 2 cats. He is a very happy boy and loves to please. He is quite the house mouse. He goes out to do his business and then is the 1st one at the door to get back inside. When he is not playing with all the stuffed dog toys he loves lounging on the back of the sofa. He is crate trained and sleeps in his crate all night. He will let you know (barks) if he needs to go outside. He would prefer sleeping in bed with us under the covers! Toby loves to "Go bye-bye" and will jump right in the car for a ride. Toby has been around children and doesn't mind them picking him up. He also knows how to use a doggie door. Toby is a wonderful family dog that will make a great addition to anyone's home.
Toby was recently diagnosed with diabetes. He requires 2 insulin injections a day (12 hours apart). He eats a prescription dry food to help him loose a little weight. Please don't let giving a dog an injection keep you from considering Toby as a family member. The needle is very small and he doesn't even feel the shot when I give it to him. The most important thing you want to think about is the timing of his injections. You must have a family situation that allows you to be home for the injections 12 hours apart.
Toby is currently in Coshocton County. Please contact me with any questions, sheralloway@gmail.com.
