About Toad
Toad is new to Heartland Animal Shelter, and heโs ready to bring joy into your life. Not your typical dog named after a bumpy amphibian, Toad is a velvety-soft bundle of affection with a smile that's infectious. He came to us from Alabama, where he was rescued from animal control and spent some time in a loving foster home before making his way up north. At just 10 months old, Toad still has his youthful puppy energy. But don't let those goofy looks fool you; heโs far from the tough-guy stereotype. This sweet-natured pup greets people with wiggly excitement, not loud barks. Heโs great with other dogs and prefers leaning into cuddles over showing off. Toad is still discovering the world and will thrive in a loving home where he can enjoy daily walks, playtime, and, of course, cozy time on the couch. If you're searching for a dog thatโs handsome, hilarious, and has a gentle spirit, Toad is eager to find his forever family. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
