Toto is Dorothy’s small, black dog. He and Dorothy have a close and loving relationship, and Dorothy is extremely loyal to him—she and Toto are whisked away to Oz in the first place because Dorothy decides to try to rescue Toto from the cyclone rather than leave him to his fate and join Aunt Em in the cyclone shelter.
