My story

Meet Toby â&#194&#128&#194&#147 your new favorite adventure buddy and resident goofball! Tobestar-the-Superstar is a 4-year-old, 60-pound Rhodesian Ridgeback-Treeing Walker Coonhound mix â&#194&#128&#194&#147 a hound dog with a mohawk and a personality a mile wide! Toby is the ultimate adventure companion with the most stunning copper eyes. Whether running, hiking, walking, or playing disc golf, heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s ready to join in with enthusiasm (epic zoomies included). But donâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t let his athletic side fool you â&#194&#128&#194&#147 heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s also the Prince of Snoozeville, happy to curl up on the couch or in a cozy chair for a long, luxurious nap. Toby had a rough start in life, mistreated by his former family and understandably fearful at first. Thanks to lots of love, training, and snacks, heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s blossomed into a confident, affectionate pup with an irresistible goofy streak. This little prince is a total ladiesâ&#194&#128&#194&#153 man who loves hamming it up for attention, though heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s equally happy to accept scritches from the guys as well. While heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s okay with respectful kids and dogs when out and about, Toby would be best in a home where he can be the star of the show â&#194&#128&#194&#147 no other pets or young children please. Toby is in perfect health, neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. Though not crate trained, heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s a gentleman at home, content to snooze the day away while youâ&#194&#128&#194&#153re out. Smart as a whip and incredibly loyal, walks wonderfully both on and off leash, heels, comes when called, and even switches sides on command during walks or runs. He knows a ton of commands and loves showing them off â&#194&#128&#194&#147 especially for treats! If youâ&#194&#128&#194&#153re looking for a silly, sweet, devoted adventure buddy who is ready to both hit the trail and hog the couch, Tobestar just might be your guy.
