Toby, the Tiny Herder?
"You can look at my Lambie, but you can't touch!"

Introduction: Hi, I'm Toby, an 8-year-old Maltese/Miniature Poodle mix. I live in Miami with my mom, Tara Callaghan, and my canine sister, Ripley. You might remember Ripley as she was FloridaPets.net's Pet of the Week for July 19-25. You can see the little Web page the people at FloridaPets.net did up for her here.

Now, back to me! My mom says I look like a very curly, very tiny, English Sheepdog. She laughs when she tells people I even has the same instinct to herd my favorite stuffed toy, Lambie, who's hanging out with me in my photo here.

My Likes & Dislikes: Well, I love being loved. Mommy says I was abandoned by my previous family...I mean, how could they do that? I am just so cute and I try to be so good, so I just don't understand why humans do things like that. My mommy says she has no idea, doesn't understand that sort of stuff one bit!

I like swimming in our pool and rolling in the dirt. But my mom says both activities are making my coat dingy and she's trying to find something gentle to use on my fur to bring my whites back!

A Story About Me: My mommy keeps a blog about me and Ripley. Well, she writes mostly about Ripley but that's OK with me, 'cause she's still just a silly pup. You can read more about our whole family, and see more photos of us here.
