My name is Ben!

Meet adoptable Ben! Arriving to the lower mainland on May 22!

Ben and his sister Casey were born in Guadalajara, Mexico. At just 2 months old, they were abandoned by their owner at a stranger’s doorstep. Our rescue partners stepped in immediately to save these babies from a life of homelessness on the streets. Ben is now 6 months old and has grown up in the care of the rescue for the past 4 months.

Ben is a Dutch Smoushond Terrier mix, currently weighing ~12 lbs. He is 13” tall from floor to shoulder. He is slightly bigger than his sister Casey but will remain small size (approx 20 lbs or less) when fully grown.

Having lived at the rescue shelter for 4 months, Ben has a developed great social skills with adults, kids, and other doggies. He is accustomed to meeting many new faces and is always eager to make friends. Ben is a cheerful, fun-loving, friendly pup with a perfect balance of playfulness and endless affection.

Ben has not been tested with cats but we can request a kitty introduction if needed. However, he is a young, adaptable puppy who will grow with his family and will likely adjust quickly to a kitty sibling. 

Being a puppy, Ben is still working on basic training and will need more practice at his future home. He’s at the perfect age to soak up all that important knowledge and grow into a well-rounded dog. This breed is known for their people-pleasing nature and they’re quite easy to train with routine, consistency, and positive reinforcement.

VETTING: Fully vaccinated. Neutered. Dewormed. SNAP 4Dx negative (Heartworm, Lyme disease, Ehrlichia, and Anaplasma). Distemper negative. Flea/tick/heartworm prevention.

**PLEASE NOTE: Ben is currently in Mexico. There will be a $235 fee for transportation to BC. This will be discussed upon approval.**
