My story

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

Benji is the embodiment of everything we love about Labs — happy, friendly, and full of life! Despite recently going through the heartbreaking loss of his owner, Benji hasn’t let it dim his cheerful spirit.
He’s settling in wonderfully at his foster home, where we’ve learned a few things about this lovable guy. Benji is dog-friendly and currently lives peacefully with both a big dog and a small dog. He loves spending time outdoors — in his previous home, he rarely got the chance, so now he soaks up every minute of sunshine he can get!
Once he bonds with his person, Benji can even be trusted off-leash. Though he’s around five years old, you’d never know it — he’s wiggly, playful, and always ready for the next adventure.
Benji is fully vetted and ready to find his forever family. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will fill your days with joy, Benji might just be your perfect match!
