Toby

Mixed Breed · Unknown

I am Toby. They say my kindness is as big as my size. Unfortunately, my previous owners didn't recognize this and just abandoned me. My advantages are that I am very calm. I enjoy taking leisurely walks with you, quiet days, and I don't need stress, hustle, or a lot of action. With me, you can slow down and enjoy life. That sounds tempting, doesn't it? I would be very happy to receive personal inquiries! Sincerely, Toby Toby thanks his sponsor Y. S. very much for the generous support! They say my kindness is as big as my size.

Hola ​​​ Ich heisse Toby. Mir wird nachgesagt, dass meine Gutmütigkeit so gross ist, wie meine Körpergrösse. Leider haben meine Vorbesitzer dies nicht erkannt und mich einfach kurzerhand ausgesetzt. Meine Vorzüge liegen darin, dass ich sehr ruhig bin. Ich geniesse gerne mit Ihnen gemütliche Spaziergänge, ruhige Tage und brauche keinen Stress, Hektik oder viel Action. Mit mir kann man gut entschleunigen und das Leben geniessen. ​ Das klingt doch verlockend, oder? Über persönliche Anfragen würde ich mich sehr freuen! ​ Herzliche Grüsse Ihr Toby ​ Toby bedankt sich sehr herzlich bei seiner Patin Y. S. für die grosszügige Unterstützung!

About Toby

What life with Toby looks like

Toby is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Stiftung vergessene Hunde in Vergessene Hunde.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇨🇭Adopting from Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Toby, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Toby?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Stiftung vergessene Hunde handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Toby on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Toby if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Stiftung vergessene Hunde will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Toby already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Toby isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Stiftung vergessene Hunde early rather than rehoming privately; they know Toby and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
