Notes from Come Bye Border Collie Rescue

Toby — Sweet, Silly & Toy-Obsessed! About 1 year old • Plymouth, IN Toby is an adorable young Border Collie mix with a heart full of love and a toy box full of favorites! This boy lives for toys — toss one, squeak one, crinkle one, and he’s instantly your biggest fan. He rides beautifully in the car, enjoys daycare, and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. He’ll happily chase the foster’s cat for fun, but he’s never shown any intent to harm. Toby can get overwhelmed in new environments and is suspicious of strangers at first — but once he feels safe, he becomes incredibly affectionate, silly, and totally himself. In places he knows, he’s a very normal, happy, fun dog. Toby’s Highlights

LOVES toys — seriously, they’re his love language Great with other dogs Rides well in the car Cat-curious but harmless Very affectionate once comfortable Enjoys daycare and is social there Needs time and patience in new environments

If you’re looking for a sweet, sensitive, toy-loving boy who will adore you once he trusts you, Toby might just be your perfect match.
