Hi, I'm Toby (a.k.a. Tobs, Tobers or Scooter Crunch as my foster mom likes to call me because I am so cute!). I've had a week to settle in from my trip here with my siblings and am doing much better now that energy level is up and my belly is getting back to normal.

I love my new foster brothers -- resident goldens, Jazz and Jake. I also get along really well with my kitty cat brother even though foster mom says he's kind of cranky. We play together much of my awake time, so I am a very busy boy. At night we all sleep in my foster mom and dad's room on our own little blankets. Foster mom says night is short lived, however, as I am faithfully up at 3 to 4am every day thinking it is breakfast time, and I must have overslept!

Mom has not been able to crate train me yet. Dr. Lee says we have to wait for my belly to settle down before we can try that again. You don't hear a peep out of me unless you try to put me in there or when mom is heating up my special food for a minute and I have to wait. That's so hard for a hungry little guy!

I'm high mainenance right now, but we will start working on that soon. Will keep in touch! Happy Holidays!

P.S. to Santa... I need more chew toys please!

Toby here!

 

I have been busy boy since my last update! I've been growing, growing, growing and keeping my resident brothers on their toes as I have been using them as my chew toys (when I forget where I last put my nylabones) as my baby teeth fall to be replaced with my big boy set!

 

I cannot tell you how happy I am to know that I will be adopted this month by my foster family.  I fit in so well and bonded so closely with everyone, both two legged and four (even the cranky resident cat, too!), that we all decided that this had to be my forever home.  So a celebration is in order as soon as Dr. Bull (she's so nice...) at Rockford Road Animal Hospital performs my little operation this month.

 

I am a very well socialized and exercized little guy as FM takes all three of us out for a daily walk around our neighborhood.  I just have to decide whether I want to walk next to my furrbrother Jake or Jazz each day.  I've also kept busy this winter chasing tennis balls and frisbees in the backyard.  My FM says one of my favorite activities is seeing how deep I can dig a hole in the snow.  I have had holes all around the yard.  Now I am wondering what a guy's to do as the snow is melting???  FM says we will have to put a digging pit in for me so I keep myself busy in the right place -- I'll try!

 

Hope the pictures of me and my very bestest and favorite furrbrother, Jakie (who was also a RAGOM foster and is 2 now), and Jazz, my older but still relatively patient 8-year old furrbrother.

 

Happy Spring, mud and puddles!
