Toby is a Golden Retriever, adopted from the Baltimore County, Maryland Animal
Shelter in 1994. Toby was an abandoned older dog and was rescued the very
same day he
was scheduled to be euthanized. We approximate that Toby was born about
1986, so this makes him a bit over 13 years old as we enter the year 2000.
Toby is very kind, gentle, and stubborn. He likes his space and "tolerates" the younger dogs in the family. He loves going for rides in the truck, and really loves to be brushed.
Because Toby is very old, his face is almost completely white (common in Goldens). He also has a bit of arthritis, a condition that has made it difficult to go up stairs.
