About this Dog
Tobias is a young, incredibly sweet German Shepherd that we rescued from the California forest fire area earlier this year. Tobias is fun, affectionate, and good with people and dogs of all sizes. He is well-behaved in public and a true joy to all of us who interact with him. He is simply lovely! Tobias has epilepsy, which is currently well-managed with medication (Keppra twice a day). This amazingly sweet boy will need someone who is willing to take the time to make him feel safe and loved. He is affectionate boy and likes to lean and rub against you. He also loves to lay on you while you comb his fur. Tobias loves food and to be spoiled! He really enjoys to have a little bit of cheese on his meals, as well as eggs a few times a week! And he absolutely loves to have another dog (or dogs) to play with. If you are looking for a wonderful companion to bond and spend quality time with, look no further!Tobias' adoption fee is $350, all of which goes back into offseting our high-cost vetting expenses and rescuing more dogs. We are a 100% volunteer-run rescue group and rely on adoption fees and donations to continue saving lives. Adoption fees include spay/neuter, current on age- appropriate vaccinations, fecal, deworming, flea/tick and heartworm preventative, heartworm tested if old enough (and treated if positive), and microchipped. Please visit http://heartlandgsrescue.rescuegroups.org/info/adoption for more information about our adoption process and requirements, and to apply. Like all GSDs, and other herding breeds that we have in rescue, Tobias will need training, consistency, boundaries, and lots of activity and socialization, in order to be a well-balanced, well-behaved dog. This sweet boy would make a great addition to an active home that will provide the love, structure, good leadership, activity and mental stimulation that he needs. Because of that, Tux's ideal owner will have prior GSD, or other similar breed experience. Even if you exercise and play with your dog daily in your fenced yard, please remember that you MUST still take your dog out on daily walks and outings, in order to provide sufficient stimulation, ward off boredom, and work on leash skills and manners.

Adopt Tobias and Receive Tobias's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Tobias's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Tobias's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Tobias, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Tobias's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Tobias was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Tobias’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Tobias’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Tobias’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
