UPDATE: We are no longer accepting applications for Toby   Meet Toby! This guy is a family man! He is a gentle giant and loves KIDS! He loves when they pull his ears, his tail, or push on his nose. You're not going to find a sweeter family man than Toby. He likes his routines and prefers an active house with young kids. Particularly kids that will love throwing him a ball. His second favorite love is playing ball, over and over again. He enjoys walks but if he is without a leash he won't leave the yard the kids play in. He would prefer a home with another dog but would be okay playing solo as long as kids are around. He does have a lot of energy but kids help wear him out with the mental stimulation. Toby is only 3 years old, house trained, and crate trained. He is fantastic with food and loves treats. He has no problems with kids feeding him. He may like to sniff your counter but won’t steal a treat. He likes to shake and sit for treats and is eager to learn new tricks. He enjoys licking kids' faces before putting them to bed at night. He also has a preference to snuggle with his owners. At this time it's on the floor but he will happily join you in your bed if you want him too and will wait if you don't. He is a goofball ready to have fun with an active family. If your family is looking for a hunter he likes to sniff but mostly at this time he finds orange tennis balls a mile away. He is the perfect dog for any active family because he has so much love and laughter to give you!   show less
