Ben is very friendly and mellow. He behaves well around people and is gentle with children. He gets along with dogs and stays calm around cats.
Ben is a docile, warm, and friendly dog. He gets along with other dogs and cats. Ben is smart and has a gentle nature. He was able to master basic commands and house rules in very short time. He’s a little shy but likes to be around people. At his foster home, he won everyone’s heart!
About Ben’s rescue:
One day when the rescuer rode bike passing by a gravesite on the country road, she sighted two puppies. Followed them into the deep grass, there were five more puppies hiding. She started to bring them food from time to time.
When the time come to neuter them, she found out that one puppy had been poisoned to death, and another one, Ben, had multiple deep cuts on his belly. All the puppies were neutered. Their ears were cut as a mark, since the original plan was to do TNR (trap/neuter/return) for all of these puppies. Considering the place was no longer safe for them to grow up, the rescuer decided to place them with foster family and seek adoption for them. Ben was treated for his wounds and settled down at the foster home.
Ben is doing very well at his foster home. He has passed the physical. Ben is ready for his forever home. Will you open your arms and welcome this sweet boy to become a member of your family?
