About the Book
When Charmaine and her husband adopted Toby, a five-year-old Chesapeake Bay retriever, they figured he might need some adjusting time, but they certainly didn't count on what he'd do in the meantime. Soon after he entered their lives and home, Toby
proved to be a holy terror who routinely opened and emptied the hall closet, turned on water taps, pulled and ate things from the bookshelves, sat for hours on end in the sink, and spent his days rampaging through the house. Oddest of all was his penchant for
locking himself in the bathroom, and then pushing the lid of the toilet off the tank, smashing it to pieces. After a particularly disastrous encounter with the knife-block in the kitchen— and when the couple discovered Toby's bloody paw prints on the phone—they decided Toby needed professional help. Little did they know what they would discover about this dog.
On Toby's Terms is an endearing story of a beguiling creature who teaches his owners that, despite their trying to teach him how to be the dog they want, he is the one to layout the terms of being the dog he needs to be. This insight would change their lives
forever.
I loved this book! It was really interesting how Charmaine and her husband found someone to help them figure Toby out. I think they also found out about themselves along the way. I think dogs are a lot smarter than we give them credit for sometimes! If you have a dog, you’ll want to read this book.
You can purchase On Toby’s Terms at Amazon.

I used to have a basset named Arthur and he was a love! He was so slow UNLESS you mentioned CHEESE or turned your back when preparing a sandwich on the counter, that pup could jump up and grab it so fast, we called him "the flash of fur"! Now I have my "blog buddy" Ms. M, who really is my grandpuppy! and I am a GFC public follower for a while now!

I follow on GFC and I knew a dog like this! His family finally realized that this dog needed a job (!!) and they adopted him to a man who trains drug sniffing dogs and once he had a place to put his energy he became a star!
