My story

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

Benson is a sweet, sensitive soul who can be a little shy when meeting new people—but give him a bit of time, and you’ll see his affectionate, playful side shine through. Once he feels comfortable, he becomes a loving companion with plenty of enthusiasm to share. He’s a big fan of other dogs and has done wonderfully in playgroup, where his confidence really blossoms. Benson also has lots of energy and would thrive with a family ready to enjoy active adventures and help him continue building trust. If you’re looking for a gentle, loyal friend who just needs a little patience to show you his bright, joyful spirit, Benson is your boy!
