And has been for 2 weeks......bad, bad mommy.... :(
Our visit to my friend in Mississippi was fun, the drive was exhausting and Toby chewed everything in sight coming home - LOL !!! He rode in a crate - chewed through the seat belt, pulled some of the blankies through the wires of the crate and chewed those, and chewed the harness I had on him... :2funny:
They estimate him to be 15 months - and he is still ALL puppy !!! He is destroying all of Rudy's toys, and has chewed holes in the blankies that I have in the x-pen for him.... I keep telling myself... this too shall pass - LOL !!!
We have just been trying to stick to a schedule so everyone feels comfortable. They boys are finally playing a little together, and Brandy licked Toby on the face a couple times. It is just all new for all of us !!!
He is such a funny boy !!!! Is so happy all the time and wagging his tail. I am learning obedience just as he is :rolleyes:
Sorry to take so long to post about him..... with the holidays and year end work - SOOO busy !!! Here are a few pics :thumb:

I sure have been wondering about Toby Barb thanks for the update. He looks big next to the B&T kids! How much does he weigh vs R and B? The adjustment is often a little stressful at first, things will settle and you won't be able to remember when he wasn't a set part of the family! More piccies!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (and stories!)
Welcome home sweet Toby.... you are sooooooo handsome! :heart: :heart: :heart: Make sure that your new mama posts lots of pictures of you and your new siblings! Smooches and belly rubs to you little guy!!!!
He is actually a little over 17 lbs !!! Rudy is almost 14 and Brandy is 10 - so he is definately the Big boy !
Wow!!! Toby sure is a handsome dude!!! Can't wait to see more piccies... Smooches & belly rubs to the kids...

Barb, he is right up there with my gang. The boys are about 18 pounds and Bonita is about 16 pounds.
I am so glad you gave him a forever home.
