Birthday:

Likes:
Toby loves long walks and hiking.

Pet-Peeves:
Toby is a cat chaser. He has not yet caught either of our two cats, but he keeps on trying.

Favorite Toy:
Toby loves his Kong, especially if there is some peanut butter in it.

Favorite Food:
Toby is happiest on his raw diet and loves chicken backs, though he will eat pretty much anything.

Favorite Walk:
Toby and I take an hour walk at least once a day, usually down a quiet road that has woods and swamps on either side. We never see cars, but we often see wild turkeys, squirrels and other birds.

Best Tricks:
Toby likes any trick that will get him a treat, but he can also pick out each of his toys by name.

Arrival Story:
Toby joined our family in May of 2007. He was three years old and living in a foster home after his previous family gave him up for adoption. Toby is a pure-bred Rhodesian Ridgeback, however, because he does not have the coveted ridge, it was unlikely that he would find a new home. I met Toby through Rhodesian Ridgeback Rescue and knew right away that he was the perfect dog for my household. We are seldom apart; I even bring him with me to work. He is very well mannered and quite obedient even though he has tons of energy and naturally dominant tendencies. His favorite activities are his daily walk, hiking in the mountains and sleeping in front of the fireplace at home.
