Hi, new friend! Theo - Silver Heart here.
I have seen many homes come and go, and now I am ready to settle into one where I can lean against your leg, nap deeply, and wake only for walks, treats, and the occasional cat.
They wrote that I love to play. Understatement. I'd hike, fetch, and nap with you, in that order.
I won't fib — there's a little grey on my muzzle. "Older" just means I'm past the wild puppy chaos and all in on cozy company.
I've been holding down the fort in Austin, 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.
Either way, thank you for seeing me today. That part mattered more than you know. — Theo - Silver Heart

About Theo - Silver Heart
Hi! My name is Theo but my foster family calls me "Toby"! I am a handsome 10 year old flashy fawn boy that was part of a loving home but after my dad went into a nursing home I spent time with family, at a shelter, and with two rescue foster homes. I'm now looking for my forever home that will give me all the love and attention! I am pensive and quiet, well mannered inside and outside, love to be touching humans all of the time, likes to drink from the hose when watering the garden, enjoy snacks and treats, sniffin my toes and cats, giving kisses, and only barking when someone is walking on the sidewalk! I love going for walks or car rides, but not a fan of crowds like Home Depot. I am house trained and leash trained! I am trusted to have full range of the home when the humans are away and usually go from couch to human's bed and nap, so no need for crating. I currently live with a cat who mostly swats at me unprovoked, but I don't care and am not reactive. I can be a little reactive to small dogs who run up to me off leash but love meeting cool dogs and have stayed with a foster family with 2 and 10 year old boxers and we are buddies! I am an active boy that can easily do a 3 mile per day walk, heat withstanding. I would do best in a fun household with dogs and a family that has someone home at all times, although I do fine with a working foster parent and mean cat brother. I am a sweet gentleman but l will remind the humans that it's time to go to bed at 10pm sharp. If you think I would make a great addition to your family, contact the rescue today and give them my name because I am waiting to meet you!
