In the shelter’s words

Meet Tocho – Your Next Loyal Adventure Buddy! Looking for a smart, active dog with a big heart and an even bigger brain? Meet Tocho – a handsome, mature boy with charm, wit, and a love for toys that rivals his love for people! Tocho is incredibly intelligent and already knows a whole toolkit of tricks including Sit, Wait, Shake, and Down. He’s also a fetch expert — not only will he chase the ball with enthusiasm, but he’ll drop it neatly at your feet so you never lose track of it. He walks well on leash and enjoys being active, but he’s just as happy settling in with a favorite toy on a cozy bed. One of his quirkiest and cutest habits? He’s so devoted to his toys that he’ll rinse them off in his pool to keep them clean! Tocho has done well with most respectful dogs and may enjoy having a calm, well-matched canine companion. He has been exposed to livestock in the past. His loyalty runs deep — once you earn his trust, it’s yours for life. ‍ He’s the kind of dog who will respect your boundaries if you respect his — mutual trust is key to a strong bond with him. Tocho does well in most fencing and loves having elevated surfaces to climb or jump on ‍♂️, so a yard with interesting terrain or structures would be ideal. True to his active nature, he may prefer living primarily outdoors with access to indoor time and companionship. He thrives with purpose, space, and enrichment. To help him thrive, Tocho will need a dog-savvy, adult-only home that understands the needs of an intelligent, energetic dog. With structure, patience, and understanding, he’ll be an incredibly rewarding companion. If you’re ready to meet a smart, loyal, and adventurous dog who will be by your side through thick and thin, call the Ranch to meet Tocho today!
