About Toby

Meet Toby, a 10-year-old male Akita Chow mix. While he’s got some years behind him, he still has an abundance of love to share. This charming boy enjoys the company of people and does well with cats, dogs, and children. Toby dreams of a family that truly appreciates his sweet nature and can offer him the cozy, loving environment he deserves.
