who loves everyone he meets. Despite a recent change in his life, he remains a incredibly happy, calm, and affectionate dog. If you are looking for a loyal shadow and a gentle family companion, Toby is your boy!
Toby especially LOVES his foster dad and will whimper when he's not with him. He's getting better — we were told that he did this for a while in his first home when everyone started leaving the house again after Covid.
Toby is up to date on vaccines. His adoption fee is $500. As a diabetic dog, he needs a fairly disciplined feeding schedule (no free-feeding or grazing), and high-protein food. He also needs someone willing to give him insulin shots twice a day, and someone willing to take him to the vet every 3-4 months to check his sugar levels and to ensure that the insulin dosage continues to be appropriate. We believe that the benefits of having such a loving, well-behaved dog far outweigh the special efforts he requires. He will bring fulfillment to his loving family.
Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home.
