About Toby

Meet Toby, a 5-year-old Cattle Dog mix with a heartwarming personality. At 54 pounds, this sweet and energetic pup brings joy to those around him. He is deaf and experiences some incontinence at night, but his zest for life makes him a true delight. Toby is well-behaved on a leash and is crate trained, primed for both outdoor adventures and snuggling on the couch. He finds joy in chewing on bones, basking in the sun, and spending time with his favorite people. He does well with dogs and has a gentle demeanor that radiates charm. Toby is looking for a loving family that can provide the patience and care he needs for a forever home. He’s currently in Houston, TX, but can be transported to most states for an additional fee. Are you the one to give Toby the loving home he deserves?
