My story

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

Tobias was found as a stray pet near Mt. Moriah Rd. and Poplar Ave. a few weeks ago and brought to MAS by a Good Samaritan.

If you believe this is your lost pet, email MAS@memphistn.gov as soon as possible and plan on visiting us during our open hours.

His pet finder says he did well with the other dogs in the home but displayed resource guarding with food and separation anxiety.

I took Tobias out for photos with a visiting photographer on 2/7/26. He did so well! He's definitely a gentle giant. He leashed up well and walked politely to the photo room. He greeted the photographer with a low wagging tail and wasn't overly excited or nervous. He walks entirely loose leash which is great! He liked being pet on his face and back, and seemed to know "sit" on command.
