Story
3/20/25 We can only repeat what we wrote in August. Please consider giving Toby a home. He asks for little - just a soft bed in an ex pen where he can call that area his own. He likes to be on a schedule of eating/going out in the yard to potty. He needs a fenced yard as he has had no leash training. 8/6/24 Is there not a Chihuahua person out there looking for a little guy who does not ask for much attention? He enjoys being in his ex pen watching the other dogs but not being bothered by them. He's quick to get his business done outside but does need to wear a belly band inside as he likes to sometimes sneak a marking in. Where is his person? He's still waiting .10/24/23 Yes, Toby is a Grumpy old man. But he doesn't require much attention. He's quiet in his exercise pen and likes to stroll around the fenced yard. He'll find a sunny spot to soak up some sun, and then he's ready to come back in and climb back in his bed. Toby is a Chihuahua/Rat Terrier mix, approximately 6 years old. He came to us from being saved off the streets of a big Texas town. Toby needs a home that can help him trust people. He doesn't really want to be handled but likes to observe from a safe space out of the reach of people. Toby craves the safety of his crate - he will go outside into the fenced yard when you open his crate door, and he comes back in when called and will hop in his crate. He does not appreciate hands in his crate, so if you need to pick him up, talking quietly to him in an area where he cannot hide, he will allow you to pick him up and accept a few skritches. He's black and white and weighs about 10 pounds. He gets along with all the other dogs here and will need a securely fenced yard and someone who will allow him to relax and be with you without needing much attention until he knows he's safe. To inquire, please complete our application first, www.bongosbuddiesrescue.com . 10/14/25 Toby has been diagnosed with EPI, which means his body is not absorbing nutrients correctly. We have him on a supplement and 2 meds that are added to his 2 meals a day, and he has gained the weight he lost and is eating well. He does need to wear a belly band and his person to remember he can have no treats besides his 2 meals as he gets diarrhea if given food not treated by his meds first.
