Bio
Meet Toby,
Toby is looking for a rescue, foster, or adopter willing to provide the ongoing medical care and support he needs. He has several medical concerns, including damaged cartilage in his left ear, lenticular sclerosis in both eyes, and generalized chronic skin disease. His skin condition causes significant itching, hair loss, thickened and darkened skin, and irritation. He also has a mass beneath the skin on his left hip that will need further veterinary evaluation.
Toby will need continued veterinary care, monitoring, and treatment to help manage his skin condition and address his other medical concerns. He deserves the opportunity to receive the care he needs in a safe and stable environment where he can be comfortable and loved.

Toby is currently at risk for euthanasia due to his medical needs. We are urgently seeking someone willing to step up and give him a chance.
If you are interested in adopting, fostering, or rescuing Toby, please email dasadopt@dallas.gov with your contact information and a callback phone number.
