Meet Tobias! Tobias is a big, handsome boy with an even bigger personality. If you're looking for a dog who loves spending time with his people, enjoys a good toy, and is always ready to head out for an adventure, Tobias may be your guy.<br/><br/>This social pup has quickly become a volunteer favorite. He enjoys attention, leans into affection, and has been known to hand out plenty of kisses. Tobias is the kind of dog who likes being part of the action, whether that means going for a walk, hanging out with his favorite people, or showing off a toy he's particularly proud of.<br/><br/>Tobias loves toys and treats, and both are great ways to win him over. He's highly food motivated and enjoys interacting with people, making him a fun dog to work with. Volunteers have also noted that he settles nicely after getting some time to explore and stretch his legs.<br/><br/>One thing you'll notice right away is that Tobias is a strong boy! He can be enthusiastic on leash and would benefit from continued work on his walking manners, but he's also eager to engage with his people and enjoys learning when snacks are involved.<br/><br/>Tobias is heartworm positive and currently undergoing treatment, which means he'll need to continue activity restrictions throughout his treatment. Once he's feeling his best, he'll be ready to enjoy all the adventures life has to offer.<br/><br/>Tobias at a Glance<br/><br/><br/> Age: 3 years old<br/> Personality: Social, affectionate, playful, and goofy<br/> Training: Food motivated, enjoys working with his handler, and would benefit from continued leash training<br/> Favorite Activities: Playing with toys, carrying toys around, going for walks, rolling in the grass, enjoying treats, spending time with people

SPCA of Southwest Michigan's Adoption Policy
We have same day adoptions! You are welcome to visit our shelter anytime during our open hours. When you visit, you can either look through the kennel first or go into a meet and greet room with an available animal of interest. In the meet and greet room, we will let you spend time with the animal and read off their file. If you have a dog at home, you can bring them along with you to do a dog-to-dog meet and greet. The main question we ask is if you own or rent your home. If you rent we check your pet policy. Bring your pet policy with you; as that is the quickest way for us to check. Once that clears, all you would need to do is fill out an adoption contract and pay their adoption fee. They would go home with you after that! If you are adopting a cat, you are welcome to bring your own carrier with you. We do have carriers to borrow or cardboard boxes to send home with you if you do not have one. If you are adopting a dog, you are welcome to bring your own leash and collar. We do have leashes and collars to send home with you as well. Holds We offer holds over the phone and in-person. The hold fee is $50 and is non-refundable. Holds over the phone are for 24 hours and holds in-person are for 48 hours.
