Up late too? Hi. Toad here.
I showed up as a stray in Texas with zero job experience, and now I'm a professional cuddler who takes the loneliness thing seriously—you've been warned.
My notes say I'm a world-class cuddler, and I'd like that on the record.
I'm on the bigger side — which, if you ask me, is just more of me to hug.
I've been holding down the fort in Seattle, hoping someone like you would wander by.
Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.
With a little luck, Labor Day could be my first one in a real home — possibly with you, or with someone you send my way.
Thanks for spending a minute with me. I'll be right here, tail ready, hoping it's you. — Toad

About Toad
Meet Toad! Toad is an 1.9 year old neutered mixed breed (a little herding dog, a little terrier, and a whole lot of personality). He came to us as a stray puppy in rural Texas back in January 2025 with his siblings—who've since found their families. Now it's Toad's turn! Foster Update:Toad is basically pure mischief wrapped in a cuddly, cow-spotted package. His unique "reverse Guernsey cow" coat—mostly white with tan patches—makes him look like a tiny calf, but don't be fooled: he's all pup, no moo.Cuddles are his specialty. Snuggling into a cozy bed at night is his favorite event. He truly believes affection should be an Olympic sport—he'd take home a gold medal every time. He can get a little lonely when left alone but nothing major - he is happiest when he's part of the action. When Toad's not curled up in cuddle mode, he's all about the zoomies. This little speedster turns the backyard into his personal racetrack, especially when teamed up with the resident dog. Together, they're a blur of paws, wagging tails, and joyful chaos. Toad's dream home:A family who loves snuggles as much as he does, with space to zoom and (ideally) a playful canine friend to romp with. Because of his herding mix and energy level, we aren't considering apartments for Toad at this time.Toad will need a home with a securely fenced yard and breed experience that will give him time to decompress in his new environment. Toad has not been cat tested so a home without cats is preferrable.
