About Tony

Tony is a charming, medium-sized, four-year-old dog with a heart as big as his smile. He’s playful and incredibly affectionate, making friends with everyone he meets, both human and canine. If you want a loyal companion for walks, road trips, and cozy evenings, Tony is your guy. Confident and curious, he adapts well to new environments, even busy city life. Training is a joy for him, especially with treats on the line. He’s crate trained, loves people, and enjoys both adventures and quiet time on the couch. Tony’s life took a sudden turn when he was surrendered because his family had to move. Confused at first, he has regained his joyful spirit with the help of loving caregivers. Now, he’s ready to find his forever home. He’ll thrive in a family that offers him daily walks, playtime, and lots of affection. His friendly demeanor and zest for life make him an excellent match for many types of homes. Tony is fully vetted: neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, plus he’s on flea and tick prevention. Excitingly, he has the chance to travel to New York this September—if only we can find him a loving adopter or a foster-to-adopt family. Could you be Tony’s forever home? Don’t let this opportunity pass. Hit apply and let's get started!
