Toby
Introducing Toby the Professor of Scents
At 8 years young, Toby know excatly who he is and thats okay with us. He’s a quiet, soulful guy who perfers the “slow life”. While he can be a little shy at first once he knows you’re a friend he’ll show you his true gentle heart.
Toby is a proffesional sniffer. He loves to go on “sniffari” walks where he can investigate every blade of grass at his own pace.
He has tested well with other dogs and generally perfers a “live and let live” approach. He’s happy to do his own thing and doesn’t need to be the center of a dog-park party.
