Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Beniko (derived from "Beni" in Japanese, meaning red, or rouge), pronounced ben-ee-coe, is approximately 6 years old, neutered , up to date on vaccines, microshipped, heart worm negative, leash trained, and house trained.
Beniko, or Beni for short, is an absolute love. He was found running stray and was picked up locally by Norfolk Animal Control. He has one ear that is curled up, but it is all still there. We have no idea what happened to his ear! We are still assessing his social skills with other dogs, but all he wants is love and attention from people!!
