This is my boy Toby who I've had for nearly 6 months, pictured winning 2nd prize for most handsome dog in a local dog show. When my anxiety was at its worst and I was becoming slightly agoraphobic I started volunteering at the local rescue center because I was terrified I'd become housebound. I met Toby and started talking him on walks. Toby also had very severe anxiety and was in a terrible state, having been in kennels for nearly a year with no interest. He really helped me at a time when my life was in ruins and I couldn't see any hope. So, when I started to feel better, I decided to repay the favour and adopted him. Despite his tough appearance he is THE most affectionate animal I have ever known and sleeps in my arms like a little baby in the evenings. I would never have met him if I didn't have a breakdown - so perhaps everything does happen for a reason. Thanks for reading x
p.s sorry for the huge picture - don't know how to re-size!
