Toby, who lives with his owners Chris Lardner and Georgina Price in Gloucestershire, has Ehlers-Danlos syndrome that affects his skin, making it saggy, giving him a permanently grumpy look.Chris and Georgina didn’t let his condition put them off, and adopted Toby and his best friend Quinton, after they were both rescued from a hoarder's house by the RSPCA...'After a difficult start in life we are just glad we found them when we did. We can prevent Toby from further harm and ease any potential problems his EDS may bring.'
