My story

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


Meet Toph (pronounced Toff)!
Personality: Gentle soul sweetheart
Likes: Cozy beds, gentle affection, and feeling safe with her people.
Fun Fact: Like her namesake earthbender, Toph has a quiet strength—and the biggest heart!

Toph is a beautiful Boxer–Pit Bull mix who has already done one of the hardest jobs there is—she came to the shelter pregnant, raised her puppies, and now it’s finally her turn to be loved. The shelter can feel overwhelming for her at times, but once she gets to know you, her true self shines through. She has the softest, most gentle demeanor and leans into you for comfort, offering sweet little kisses in return. Toph is truly the definition of a tender-hearted dog who just wants a calm, cozy home and a warm bed to curl up in this winter. After everything she’s given, Toph is ready to settle down and be someone’s very special girl.
