My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Benny.

If you are looking for that buddy who enjoys walks and also chills with you on the sofa then sweet Benny might be your match. Rescued as a stray it is understandable he may be shy when meeting you for the first time. But you can see in his big brown eyes that he wants to overcome his fear and be your friend. Once he knows he is safe, he becomes a love bug who wants your affection and gives you gentle kisses.

He is potty trained, doesn't have separation anxiety and walks well on the leash. He is very interested in meeting other dogs but is not a fan of overly exuberant dogs especially if they are bigger then him. He got along well with his foster sibling who was another small breed.

He has moderate and calm energy but is also playful. He loves playing and chasing his toys and especially loves getting the squeak out of squeaky toys. He has a loving, gentle and quiet demeanor. He doesn't bark much and may do it when a dog passes by the house or if there is a loud moving vehicle like skateboards or motorcycles.

If you are interested in meeting his sweet guy then fill out an application today!
