Special dog in Sarasota

Let me introduce you to Toni.

Toni arrived at our shelter very thin, with 4 adorable furry puppies still nursing. She had a cyst under her neck and was very protective of her pups as every mother should be.

Her puppies were weaned and adopted and now it is Toni's turn.

She had surgery to remove the cyst under her neck, but due to the invasiveness of the cyst, it was decided to leave it alone. It is benign and is not noticeable unless you are looking for it.

She is a true mutt with traces of golden retriever, border collie, shar pei(look at those ears) and maybe chow (a little black on her tongue). She is a small girl by retriever standards with butterscotch and gold coloring. She is two years old and appears to be housebroken.

Our K-9 Coaches have been teaching her commands and she has mastered sit and down, but is still working on stay.

She would do best in a calm household with no kids because she likes to round things up. She has beautiful brown eyes and might just be the perfect companion for you.

If you would like more information on Toni, please call 955-4131 to get the scoop. She will be waiting to hear from you.
