Meet Toast! Toast is a sweet, playful boy with a heart full of love and a joyful personality. He enjoys games of tug-of-war, squeaky toys, and happily chewing on his favorite bones. When it’s time to relax, Toast loves curling up in his kennel and soaking up affection—especially belly rubs and head scratches. Toast has great house manners. He is leash trained, crate trained, potty trained, and rides well in the car. He has lived successfully with both dogs and cats and does very well with them, especially enjoying playtime with his furry friends. What makes Toast truly unique is that he is blind—but that doesn’t stop him from living life to the fullest! Toast had both eyes surgically removed and has adapted beautifully, navigating his world with confidence and trust once he learns his surroundings. He is also a submissive “grinner,” meaning he may show his teeth when he’s happy or excited—it’s just his adorable way of smiling. Toast can be startled by loud household items like vacuum cleaners, which he prefers to avoid by finding a safe hiding spot. **A note about adoptiong a blind dog: blind dogs adapt incredibly well and often surprise their adopters with how capable they are. Toast benefits from consistency, verbal cues, and a stable home layout. Simple accommodations—like not rearranging furniture often, using scent or sound cues, and announcing yourself before touching—help him feel secure. In return, blind dogs form deep bonds and are wonderfully attentive companions. If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate dog who will fill your home with love and gratitude, Toast may be the perfect match.**
