Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello, my name is Benson. My mom says that I'm a big boy in an itty bitty body. I've had a tough life - when I arrived at my mom's house she said I was the tiniest bag of bones she had ever seen. She said she didn't know it was possible to have skinny little toes like I did. I was starved, sick and had just been shaved down to see what breed of dog I even was. Mom said it was a horrible hack job of a shave but she was glad to be able to see my darling little face. Since I arrived I've gained weight and I look healthy again - and I'm all better.
Benson is a sweet boy that loves to cuddle. He loves to be with his person and will follow you like a little shadow.
Benson does get along with other dogs but should be the only dog in a home. He likes to be the center of attention in his parents life. He doesn't pay much attention to cats although he'll give playful chase. Benson can be placed in a home that has children 13+.
