About Toast

Meet Toast, a sweet and shy girl who found her way to us as a stray. She came in a bit rough around the edges, dealing with fleas and some missing fur, but she's on the mend and her skin is improving daily. Toast strikes a great balance between playful and calm. She knows how to have fun with her favorite squeaky toys and loves a good game of fetch, especially when a human is by her side. Walking on a leash is no trouble for her at all; she would make an excellent companion for hikes and walks. Additionally, she’s gentle and respectful when taking treats, making training sessions a breeze—she already knows sit and shake! She gets along well with other dogs and even greeted cats with caution and a gentle sniff. While it’s unclear how she feels around kids, her friendly demeanor is hard not to love. Her adoption fee is $150, which covers her spay, vaccinations, deworming, microchip, heartworm testing, and a complimentary wellness exam. Click apply to start the adoption process.
