Welcome, Toby! 🤎

You’ve been through so much in such a short time, and we’re so grateful to be able to give you the fresh start you deserve — one filled with patience, understanding, knowledge, love, and positivity. Your new chapter starts now.

A huge thank you to Brenda and family for opening your hearts and home to this sweet boy.

Update:
Things are going wonderfully! Toby settled in quickly, is already relaxing, and there has been no tension with the other dogs. Thank you again!

Another beautiful life saved.

‼️ FOUND OUR FOSTER HOME FOR TOBY‼️

🐾 EXPERIENCED FOSTER HOME NEEDED 🐾
Toby is being surrendered after his guardian suffered a traumatic accident. He is currently staying with extended family, but unfortunately the transition and environment have not been the right fit for him. The stress and upheaval have caused Toby to become reactive.

‼️Toby has received professional training‼️
Trainer notes: Toby worked on place command (going to a bed, crate, or designated spot and remaining there until released with “OK”), name recall, threshold boundaries, and general structure both in the home and on leash. He made wonderful progress with his reactivity and was no longer barking at strangers or people knocking at the door. However, he continued to struggle with aggression related to handling, as Toby is uncomfortable being touched.‼️

Toby is looking for a knowledgeable, patient home where he can be given the time and space to decompress and adjust at his own pace. He will thrive with positive reinforcement, gentle guidance, and an environment free of pressure or unrealistic expectations while he rebuilds trust and learns to feel safe again. Understanding and proper management will be essential, as Toby does have a bite history. Visitors and strangers must respect his boundaries and avoid approaching him, reaching toward him, or forcing interaction. Toby needs a calm, structured home where his space will be understood and advocated for.

Toby is 2 years old, healthy, recently neutered, and up to date on vaccines.
🌟 Does well with small dogs only
🌟 Patient, compassionate humans
🌟 Calm, quiet lifestyle
🌟 No cats
🌟 No children
🌟 Single-family residence only with a securely fenced yard

If you believe you can offer Toby a safe, patient, and understanding home where he can heal and succeed, move at HIS PACE, please email us 📧: [email protected]

Foster/adoptive homes located in and around Washington State and Vancouver, British Columbia only.
