Toro

My story

Toro is a gentle soul who’s been through far more than any dog should. At 5 years old, this pit mix was found tied to a post, a t-shirt painfully stretched over the terrible injuries on his back. Thanks to loving care and time, Toro is now fully healed — though he carries a few scars as quiet reminders of the mistreatment he endured. Despite it all, he has held onto his loving heart and calm spirit. He walks beautifully on leash at a mild pace and is happiest when he's lying down with his favorite ball or soaking up scratches from a kind hand. Toro knows how to sit, takes treats with care, and seems to be housebroken. He greets people with a warm tail wag and a mellow, trusting presence — a true gentle giant. He enjoys quiet pleasures like a dip in the kiddie pool or just hanging out with the people he loves. Toro would thrive as the only dog in a home, not because he doesn’t love — but because he’s earned a peaceful life all to himself. After everything he’s endured, Toro is ready for a forever home filled with love, safety, and the dignity he’s always deserved. He is available for adoption in the Greater Los Angeles area.
