Here's what the humans have to say about me:
A little bit about Toby: - Friendly, positive history with kids, all interactions should be supervised - No history with cats or small animals, all introductions to be done slowly over time - Came in with littermate, potential for other dog in home pending successful introduction
Introducing Toby, a 4-year-old shepherd mix who arrived in our care with his brother, Markki. If you were in the market for two sweet, gentle giants, Toby and Markki could still go home together, but they are also happy to find homes separately. Toby may also do well with another dog with careful management and a successful introduction at the shelter. Toby is friendly with people of all ages and absolutely adores affection - he loves pets so much that he’s been known to scoot his brother aside to get a turn!
While social and sweet, Toby can be a bit shyer than Markki and may feel nervous in new environments. A patient home will help him settle in and build confidence, which we`re sure won`t take very long! He’s a strong, enthusiastic dog who is currently working on loose-leash walking and learning not to jump up when he’s excited. Continuing this training with positive reinforcement techniques in his next home will help him progress even further. Toby is also on the rounder side (although not as round as his brother) and would benefit from a gradual weight-loss plan paired with regular exercise. Toby has not been around cats or small animals, so any introductions should be slow and carefully managed.
There will never be another lonely or dull moment with Toby by your side, so come meet this sweet bear today!
