Toby - male Lurcher Cross

Toby is the sweetest dog who enjoys a gentle fuss and snuggling up on his sofa, but what he enjoys most is running around after his toys and generally being downright silly! He can be quite strong when he's on his lead, and he's an active lad who loves being outdoors and will happily walk for hours, exploring everywhere. Toby is clever and picks things up very quickly, and he can be outrageously affectionate at times, nuzzling into his handlers for the gentlest cuddles. He will walk with some other dogs but can be selective, so it's always best to introduce him slowly to any potential walking buddies. His preference is leggy dogs like himself, although he will need to be the only pet in the home. He adores people and really enjoys human company. He would appreciate being allowed to run off lead somewhere, such as a secure hired field. Toby spends a few days at a time at a volunteer's house now and again, where he has been perfectly behaved. He's had a poor experience with children in the past so needs a home with just adults.

Toby is a Sponsor Dog but still available for rehoming. He needs an adult only home where he can be the only pet, and requires multiple visits to the centre to get to know him before adoption. He is house trained and can be left alone for a couple of hours once settled.
