We are deeply saddened to announce that Toby crossed the rainbow bridge on Saturday, October 18, 2025, in Westville at the age of 16. Toby was a much-loved employee of Dennis Haverstock Funeral Homes Ltd., joining our team two years ago. While he spent a short portion of his life with us, he has left a dachshund sized mark on the hearts of all those who knew him.
Toby was small in size, but big in personality. He loved nothing more than his food and being held close while he slept. He could smell a treat from a mile away, and we often joked that it was a good thing he only had three teeth and no two were together. He had a fiercely stubborn streak; especially when it came time to go potty in the rain or snow. Despite receiving severe injuries from a dog attack, then needing to be rehomed, Toby never became cross or ill-tempered. He joined the Haverstock’s team with tail wagging and an eagerness to love and be loved. He enjoyed greeting everyone who came through the door, running to say hello and welcome them to the funeral home. He had a special talent for sensing when someone was silently struggling, and he made sure to provide them with extra comfort and warmth. While not able to sympathize through words, he always managed to do so in his own, quiet way.
Toby went to Point Tupper each night where he enjoyed snuggling up with his best friend, Nami the cat and he was at his happiest when he was tucked in bed under the covers for the night. He will be greatly missed by all. Memorial donations may be made to the SPCA or an animal’s shelter of one’s choice.
“A dog doesn’t care if you’re rich or poor, educated or illiterate, clever or dull. Give him your heart and he will give you his”.
