Toby's Story

Introducing Toby, the classic lab with a twist of goofy charm! This affectionate and friendly boy is a true loverboy with a heart as big as his size. We're talking an extra-large bundle of fun at 75 pounds! Toby is loyal, gentle, and always up for a good time. He's the perfect blend of playful and affectionate, with a good dose of silliness thrown in. Toby is a pro when it comes to knowing his commands (Sit, Shake, Lay Down and Get Off the Couch (LOL)), and fully housebroken. Gets along great with other dogs, pays no attention to cats (he's lived with multiple cats and current foster has 1, who he totally ignores), loves car rides (just say Bye-Bye and he's at the front door!). He would benefit from leash training. He prefers to eat his meals alone; otherwise, he may attempt to access other animals’ food and certainly does not want to share his own! He'll need a family who can keep up with his high energy and provide him with plenty of space to run and explore; a fenced-in yard is a must for this adventurous boy! He would also prefer a large family as he just loves being around people and, being the social butterfly that he is, another dog definitely! Toby is an all-around fantastic companion who just needs a family to match his big personality and even bigger heart. So, if you've got the space and the love to spare, Toby is the dog for you! Come and meet him today and get ready to be swept off your feet by his debonair good looks and larger-than-life personality!<br/><br/>Our dog adoption donation is $300, totally vetted; already neutered/spayed, up to date on all vaccinations; rabies and distemper, 4dx tested, wormed, de-flead and micro-chipped! Already on monthly heartworm, flea/tick preventative.<br/><br/>If you are interested in meeting/adopting Toby please submit an application by clicking this link; https://www.culpeperhumane.org/adoptions/application/<br/><br/>Once submitted, the vet reference you provided will be contacted (if no vet, please provide 3 personal references, may be family and friends if they have a dog that you interact with), and our Director of Adoptions will schedule a phone interview with you. If approved, the Adoption Coordinator contacts you schedule a home visit (virtual). Once approved, you will be contacted by the foster parent to discuss Toby and arrange the logistics for a visit. Should both you and the foster parent agree it is a good match, you can adopt same day. Our rescue group does not have a brick and mortar facility, all our animals are home fostered in our foster volunteers' homes. You will be visiting a private residence. The application does not oblige you to adopt, nor does the visitation; the application gives us more information to help ensure an appropriate, suitable and good match. <br/><br/>Not first come, first served, but the best possible match made.<br/><br/>Our policy is that we always take our animals back should it prove to be a less than perfect match, or if you are unable or unwilling to care for the animal any longer. We just don't want the animal to go back into the system. It is also our policy NOT to adopt to families with intact dogs or cats (unless there is a medical reason for not doing so). This is an effort to educate and support our national spay/neuter efforts to reduce the unwanted pet population. <br/><br/>We adopt to all of VA, DC and parts of lower MD. Occassionally we will do out of state adoptions, but our preference is given to those aforementioned states. If we need to reclaim or pet is surrendered back, we need to ensure that it is within our epi-center. <br/><br/>Thank you for considering an unwanted and abandoned dog, and being part of the rescue efforts.

Humane Society of Culpeper's Adoption Policy
The Culpeper Humane Society adopts to residents of the state of Virginia, Washington, DC and parts of Maryland. We WILL adopt to residents who live outside our usual radius IF your local humane society (or Shelter) will conduct a home visit and act as our agent in case the adoption proves to be less than perfect or you are no longer able or willing to provide for the animal. This is for our animal's safety net to ensure the animal is returned to us IF you will not transport back to us. In addition we would require 3 personal references. All are dependent on your state laws for owner surrender. It is our policy NOT to adopt to applicants with intact (unaltered) pets. If you agree to get your pets spayed/neutered, after the fact, we WILL adopt to you. This is our continuing effort to ensure the control of the animal pet population, and prevent animals from entering the Shelter. There MAY be extenuating circumstances (eg, a 16 yr old senior dog or cat that is too aged to be altered). We make these considerations on a case by case basis. It is not first come, first served, but rather the best possible home for each particular pet.

Toby is from Humane Society of Culpeper
