Meet Toby, a precious 8.5-year-old male long-haired Dachshund mix who is quite the distinguished little gentleman! 🐶 Weighing in at just 12 pounds, he sports a luxurious coat of blonde, fluffy hair that you won’t be able to resist petting. 😍 But hold onto your brushes! Daily grooming will help keep his glamour game strong and prevent those adorable locks from getting matted. ⏳✂️ Here's the scoop about Toby: he has a unique quirk that makes him a special needs dog. While he is absolutely loving and devoted to his favorite person, this charming fellow doesn't thrive in busy environments. 🏙️ He has been known to nip at visitors, which might make him better suited to a quieter home—especially with females since he had a wonderful bond with his previous owner, an older lady who sadly had to move to assisted living. Imagine Toby as your ultimate cuddle buddy! He would be happiest nestled on your lap, basking in the warmth of your companionship all day long. ☕💖 However, when visitors come knocking, it’s advised to tuck him away in a cozy bedroom until they leave to keep his spirit calm. Toby is also a calm, timid soul but brings a sprinkle of energy when it comes to watching over his family. 🕵️‍♂️ He takes his watchdog duties very seriously—barking at dogs on TV like they’re real intruders! 📺 And when it comes to walks? He’s always ready to strut his stuff and enjoys car rides as well. 🚗💨 Don’t forget his beloved raccoon and lamb toys; when excitement strikes, he’s the cutest little fellow carrying his treasures around like security blankets! 🦝🐑 Toby lives harmoniously with two other female dogs in his foster home, although he may feel a bit possessive over his favorite human. He’s playful and loving, but an adult-only, single-animal home would be ideal for him. While he may not be the ideal match for homes with kids, he offers endless affection to the one he trusts. If you're ready to open your heart and give this charming little fluffball a forever home, remember that Toby is just a tap away!
