About Toby
Toby is a petite, young mix—part Jack Russell, part Corgi—tipping the scales at about 20 pounds. He’s clever, lively in spirit, and most comfortable with calm, patient women. Fast movements, loud noises, and groups overwhelm him, especially if there are men or children around; he gravitates toward a quieter, adult female home. With gentle women, Toby bonds quickly and deeply, becoming devoted for life. He genuinely enjoys having canine companions as playmates and as a source of reassurance, so a home with other friendly dogs is useful for his confidence. Toby is housetrained, crate trained, and walks well on leash. He thrives with daily walks and needs a secure environment since he’s naturally wary and a known flight risk—he would not do well in a busy or high-traffic setting. His ideal adopter has experience with shy, fearful dogs and is ready to be patient and consistent. Toby is neutered, vaccinated, and heartworm negative. He’s waiting for a steady, understanding owner to help him settle in and feel safe. Your new best friend is just one click away.
