My story

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

Toaster: A Brave, Playful Little Sidekick

Toaster is a brave little guy with a big personality and an even bigger heart. New places and new people can feel a bit overwhelming at first, but with calm, confident guidance, he settles in beautifully and becomes a devoted little shadow who loves staying close to his person.

Playtime is one of Toaster’s favorite things. He’s a big fan of fetch (especially the throwing part—returning the ball is optional 😄), squeaky toys, and joyful zoomies. He also loves rolling around in grass, blankets, or carpet, fully embracing life’s simple pleasures. His play style is enthusiastic, and he continues to benefit from clear boundaries and consistency as he learns to channel his excitement.

Toaster thrives with structure and routine and does best when he gets regular chances to go outside and reset. He’s fairly quiet overall and has great food manners, politely giving space when people are eating nearby.

Affectionate, fun-loving, and full of spark, Toaster will do best with experienced, confident dog owners who can provide steady leadership, clear communication, and a predictable environment. In the right home, he’ll shine as a playful companion and loyal sidekick. If you’re looking for a dog with heart, personality, and a whole lot of love to give, Toaster is ready to toast his way into your life.
