Toby has been adopted!

Hi, my name is Toby! I am a 4-month old Beagle mix, and my foster mom says I am the best boy!

I am 100% puppy and am very curious about the world around me. I am so smart that I figured out how to get out of my kennel. I don’t really like being in there, but I sleep in there at night just fine. I have had a few accidents in the house, as I am learning how to go potty while I’m outside on a lead. I do well going to the bathroom outside when I am on a leash, though! I also love to play. I am a little awkward with my long legs and big paws, but it just makes me sillier and cuter. At the end of the day, after walking and playing, I love to snuggle.

My foster mom says I have a good temperament. I live with two older kids right now, but she thinks I would be okay with younger kids, too. I am working on socializing with other pets and am sharing a home with another dog right now. We are both food motivated and need to be separated when we eat and when the humans are eating, too.

If you don’t have any other dogs in your home and are ready to train and teach a puppy how to be loved, this guy is for you! He’s a great boy, and he deserves a wonderful home!

If you are interested in adopting Toby please call (218)741-7425 or email us at [email protected] to set up a meet and greet!
