Hi, I'm Toby! I'm a 3-year-old chocolate bulldog with a handsome face, 55 pounds of charm, and what some might call a slight toy obsession. My toys are my treasures, and I take that responsibility very seriously. While some dogs shred their toys in five minutes, I prefer to lovingly carry mine around and keep them safe. You're welcome, squeaky toys.

I'm a goofy guy who loves having fun, but I'm also the kind of dog who needs a little time to get to know new people. Patience is the way to my heart! Once I trust you, you'll see my silly side and understand why my friends at ADL think I'm so special.

My dream home would be a house with plenty of room to stretch out and relax. I can do okay with other dogs and cats, but if I'm being honest, I'd really love to be your one and only. I don't enjoy sharing the spotlight, and after waiting this long, can you blame me?

I'd also do best in a home with humans ages 16 and up who understand that good relationships take time to grow.

If you're looking for an instant best friend, I might not be your guy. But if you're willing to be patient, go at my pace, and let me show you who I am, I promise I'm worth getting to know.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some very important toy-related business to attend to. ??
