As a stud dog Toby has produced some lovely puppies, but there comes a time when a Stud Dog‘s career must come to an end. That day for Toby was yesterday. He was castrated! He will still be an adored family pet and companion. He will still enjoy long walks by the river and in the fields. Visiting here when my sister is on holiday and one of my bitches is in season will not be as fraught!
Enjoy your retirement little man! You deserve it.
We have a new Stud Dog who will happily take over Toby’s role. His name is Drummer, and he is a handsome tricolour boy. Read about him here.

The vet also found a small lump on his abdomen during the operation which was removed, and a small grass seed had entered his paw causing a cyst which was ready to burst.
