Toffee is a 9-month-old, 40-pound mixed breed who we believe is a Vizsla mix. She has the softest eyes and the sweetest soul. At home, Toffee is a happy, playful, and affectionate girl. She loves romping around with other dogs, playing hard, and then settling in for some cozy cuddle time. She is dog and cat friendly, house and crate trained, and thrives in a home environment where she feels safe and operates on routine. Like many sensitive pups, Toffee took a while to build her confidence in the big outside world. New environments can make her a bit timid at first, but this is something we have been working on and she has improved leaps and bounds. Patience and encouragement will be huge as she continues to build that confidence. Toffee is learning to love the outside world and the adventures it brings. Toffee came to us petrified of car rides. We have been doing a ton of desensitization work and she now will jump in willingly and knows the car equals adventure. She does still drool during travel but quickly recovers once at her destination. This sweet girl doesn't need perfection, she just needs someone willing to go at her pace, cheer her on, and show her how wonderful the world can be.
Ideal Home
Toffee would thrive with a confident, well-adjusted adult dog to be her friend. She needs a patient, understanding family willing to continue building her confidence. A home without an infant or toddler, preferably with children 10 years or older who are dog-savvy, is best. She also needs a home without small dogs or puppies, as despite her size, small dogs make her extremely uncomfortable.
Ongoing Health
Toffee drools during car rides but quickly recovers once at her destination.
Training & Support
Toffee is house and crate trained. She has made great strides in overcoming her timidity in new environments and fear of car rides with patience and positive reinforcement. Continued encouragement and understanding will be key to her ongoing confidence building.
