Toby Local is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home!
Meet Toby! Toby Obi-Wan Kenobi!
Toby is the most adorable Merle Australian Shepherd, weighing about 40 lbs. Sadly, his owner recently passed away & he’s looking for a new family to love!
Toby is 9 1/2 yrs old, but don’t let his age fool you! This boy still has lots of energy & loves playing fetch & running free in a fenced in yard. Once he gets his energy out and his needs are meet, he settles down nicely with his humans.
Toby is eager to learn & with continued training, will be a master Jedi in no time! Toby is friendly & loves attention from people. He’s house trained and is non-destructive in the home & doesn’t need to be crated.
Toby is dog selective & prefers more passive dogs who enjoy his rough style of play. He will bark to warn you when he feels uncomfortable. He should also be fed separately.
Toby enjoys going on walks, but as is characteristic of his breed, will chase bicycles, motorcycles, & vehicles passing by. He would do best in a calm household with older, dog savvy children, as he’ll try to herd small children as they run. Prior experience with his breed, their herding tendencies, need for physical & mental stimulation is required.
Toby has so much love to give & will make a wonderful, loyal companion. May the force be with you! And Toby Obi-Wan Kenobi!
If you are interested in adopting this dog please complete the adoption application at www.rhodehomerescue.org/adoption-form to become a pre-approved adopter.
If you were already approved through Rhode Home Rescue within the last 6 months, contact us today!
