Toffee

Australian Shepherd Golden Retriever

Male, Senior
Tacoma, WA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
We adopted Toffee from the Humane Society in February. He's an older fun loving dog that just wants to play and hang out with his humans. He's tentative around men, but has completely bonded with me (Chris). He does not like cats or any other animal smaller than him. We have two other cats and thought he would eventually warm up to them and has not. He has some behavioral needs that we have tried to work with him on. New people need to be introduced in a slow manner, but he typically warms up to most people. The thing Toffee needs the most is a home where he is the only animal or there are other dogs his size and where he has owners that can read his comfort level. He looks like a Golden Retriever, but is the size of an Australian Shepard. He only likes to be petted on his head, neck, or back. He loves treats, reacts to the "Leave it" command, and will occasionally be found chasing his tail. Walks are his favorite and he likes chasing the ball, but hasn't quite learned what drop means.
