Meet Toby — a 1½-year-old pittie mix who’s basically conducting a live study in the chemistry of connection.
At the shelter, all of Toby’s feelings show up at once: enthusiasm, hope, and a big dose of “notice me!” energy. But when he gets to spend time in a home or quiet space, you can see the transformation — his nervous system settles, his body softens, and he remembers how to just be.
Toby’s a sensitive, emotionally intelligent pup who’s still learning to regulate those big young-dog feelings. With gentle structure and patient, kind humans, he thrives. He loves cheese-based positive reinforcement, cuddle research, and checking whether his people are still within a 20-foot radius.
If your love language is steady affection and snack-based encouragement, you might just be Toby’s perfect co-researcher.
👉 Toby’s eligible for VIP Adoption, which includes a 30-day trial at home — your chance to run your own heart experiment.
