Toby might just be the sweet doxie you’ve been searching for. Toby is a 12-year-old gentleman weighing 16 lbs with a gorgeous red coat. He came to Little Paws when his elderly owner had to move and could no longer care for him. Despite being a senior, Toby has surprised his foster with his playful energy and zest for life—though he’s equally happy lounging around the house like the cozy companion he is. Environment Toby is his foster’s easiest dog ever. He’s fully housetrained and can hold it well, though he may occasionally mark if another dog in the home pees first. He loves his crate and considers it his happy place, making him very content when left alone. Toby has great energy on walks and enjoys his outdoor adventures, but doesn’t require a backyard. He’s not noisy, so he’s perfectly suited for a home with shared walls. Pets & People Toby is an absolute social butterfly. He greets everyone he meets—whether it’s family, friends, or strangers—with an enthusiastic tail wag and happily accepts pets and scratches. He’s non-reactive on walks and gets along great with other dogs. When it comes to food and treats, Toby is food-motivated but patient and not aggressive, even when being fed alongside other dogs. Health Toby takes daily heart medication as part of his routine. The good news is that his heart is still in good shape, and the medication is preventative—it doesn’t affect his energy level or longevity. He’s still the playful, active senior you see today! Location Toby is available for adoption from Atlanta, GA and does well in the car, so he’s ready to travel to meet his new family!
