Toby was adopted at about 10 months old in 2011 by my parents from a local rescue. She grew up with other dogs, big & small, and a cat in the house over the past 11+ years getting along with no serious issues. Recently, her guardian had a major medical event making it impossible to properly care for Toby. As her temporary fosters, my wife and I care for 3 dogs of our own and will be expecting our first child in a few months. We know she deserves more than what we can offer her. Toby is an absolute sweetheart once she gets to know you, but is very shy initially. She loves attention, cuddles, and walks. Being a senior now does limit how long her walks can go, and she can be a little slow at times. She is a house trained dog that has always been inside. She is up to date on all of her shots/vet visits as of April 2023.
