Toby is a charming 6.5-year-old Basenji mix currently in Winthrop, MA, ready to meet his perfect companion. He thrives in a calm and structured environment and seeks an experienced adopter who understands his fear-based behaviors. Once he trusts you, Toby shows his affectionate side, enjoying cuddles and being close to his family. He has a playful spirit and loves to fetch his favorite red ball or stroll leisurely, sniffing every intriguing scent along the way. Although Toby enjoys outdoor playing, he is low-energy and likes to retreat to his cozy bed for relaxation. He is house-trained and knows his routine well. Toby is motivated by food, especially his favorite treats like cheese, peppers, and peanut butter. Because of his history with fear-based reactivity, he ideally should be the only pet in a quiet home and doesn't do well with children or other animals. With patience and understanding, Toby can truly thrive and continue to bring joy to the right family. Click apply to start the adoption process.
