Story
Toby loves toys, and can easily be distracted from doing something you don’t want him to do, if he's offered a toy.
Toby loves to play with his brother, Buddy, who he's being fostered with. They will chase and wrestle with one another for hours.
When they’re ready for a break, they’ll come up onto the couch and take a nap. They both like to snuggle.
They love going in their crates, because they know that means they’re going to get a high value treat (beef liver—they love it!).
We have their crates in our bedroom (covered with a towel), and they sleep 8-9 hours with no issues. We make sure they potty right before going to bed.
We have a sound machine that we leave on (near their crates) at night and when they’re in their crates when we’re away during the day.
We're currently working on potty training, and Toby has alerted that he has to go potty a couple times, however he is easily distracted outside, and needs to be reminded to go potty.
Even though we have a fully fenced yard, we always take them out on a leash. This helps us to keep control of them and keep them more focused. We also say “Go Potty” about a million times, and give lots of praise (and treats) when they actually go.
We have not used pee pads in the house, because as soon as one is put down, they try to eat it.
They do fine in the car. We put a crate in the car, and that’s how they ride. Putting a towel over the top of the crate keeps them from barking at people in neighboring cars. 🙂
They love ice cubes!
They definitely enjoy lick mats. We’ve tried roasted mashed sweet potato, peanut butter, and canned pate style dog food. We spread the treat on the mat, then freeze them, because it takes them longer to eat them.
We’ve trimmed their nails a couple of times, and they did really well.
They both sit on command, especially if a treat is involved. Toby still jumps sometimes, but we say no jump and turn away from him, and he usually stops.
We typically have some music playing in the background, and that seems to help distract from most outside noises that might make them bark.
These adorable boys are ready to find their forever homes!
