When some people come home, they have the practice of verifying their presence in the house to their family. Even the pets joyously run to their owner and wag their tails in anticipation of his arrival.

Some pet owners have become accustomed to having their fuzzy companions waiting for them when they arrive home from work. That is the situation with Roman, who manages a mid-sized transportation firm and works as an optometrist in Chicago, Illinois. When Roman gets home from work, he always looks first through the window since his dog Toby is always waiting for him there.

This endearing and persistent practice lasted eleven years

However, Roman recently had to deal with a really difficult issue. Toby, his faithful dog for many years, died. The formerly joyful dog who was waiting for him has vanished from his window.Despite the fact that Toby has been gone for several years, Roman still gets home from work every day and reflexively stares up at the window. But it is all for naught; he will never longer see his beloved dog at his window.

Toby and Roman first met 14 years ago, when Toby was only two years old and his then-dog. girlfriend’s Toby pooped in Roman’s living room when they first met, leading Roman to believe Toby was a brat. Initially, the two did not get along.

Smart Toby is an extremely loving dog. He is usually wicked and devious because he craves Roman’s attention. This gives Roman a headache, and he frequently disputes with Toby over trivial matters.

“Just treat Toby like a human child, don’t constantly be furious with him,” his girlfriend finally persuaded Roman. As a result, Roman attempted to modify his conduct around Toby, but he did not anticipate the puppy changing his behavior as well, as if he understood.

After a few years, Roman and Toby grew inseparable, and their bond transcended even his girlfriend’s and Toby’s. A few years later, Roman divorced his fiancée, and because he couldn’t live without Toby, he handed her the house. The years have passed, and the people around him have changed, but only Toby has remained at Roman’s side….

Roman never felt lonely in the years he spent with Toby

Roman normally works as an optician and works 8-10 hours every day. Toby gradually realized the rhythm of his work hours.He’d lie by the window, waiting for Roman to get home from work.Toby becomes very thrilled when he sees Roman’s car arrive, then bobs his head and waits for Roman to get to the door…. Toby would be just as pleased if Roman went for a few minutes and then returned as if he hadn’t seen him in years.

Year after year, the waiting has gone on day and night, spring, summer, fall, and winter….Toby waits for his master to return home year after year. Toby is a perfect dog who cannot be replaced in Roman’s heart. He is compassionate and pleasant, especially among youngsters.

Toby, unfortunately, had cancer and had undergone multiple operations, including dilated cardiomyopathy, and was not in good health. In October 2018, he was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and renal failure following three major operations.

Toby’s physique had grown exceedingly weak by February 2019, and he could no longer swallow. Roman and his buddies did not want Toby to suffer much longer and bid him farewell. He made the decision to take Toby to the vet for euthanasia….

Toby has been missing for several years

But Roman’s habit of staring out the window was unavoidable. He had the impression that Toby was always present and never departed. Toby gave Roman the warmest and most ideal friend out of love and happiness, so that Roman’s life is full of light and color. Toby is much like any other furry baby around here. Even if they occasionally cause problems, they are a constant companion. They gradually become our most devoted companions, and in certain cases, even members of our family.
