COURTESY POST — Seeking New Home for “Ben”
Date: Friday, October 3, 2025
âš ï¸ Please note: Ben is not at the shelter.
This is a courtesy post to help the owner find a safe and appropriate new home. All inquiries should be directed to the owner, not Yolo County Animal Services.
Meet Ben, a friendly and energetic 4-year-old male looking for a new home where he can get the time, attention, and activity he deserves. His owner has had him for two years but recently started working full-time and can no longer give him the care he needs.
Age: 4 years
Color: White / Cream
Gender: Male (not neutered)
Vaccines: Up to date
Potty Trained: Yes
Crate Trained: Yes
Living Situation: Primarily indoors
Other Pets: Has lived with cats and kids
History: Obtained from an individual in Sacramento
Children: Friendly
Visitors: Barks at first, then approaches to sniff; often kept separate initially due to barking
Other Dogs/People: Barks when he sees them
Mouthiness: Play nips when excited — does not break skin
Handling/Sharing: Allows people to take food and toys
Personality: Energetic, jumps up when excited, affectionate with his people
Owner is unable to meet his energy and time needs due to work changes. Ben would thrive in a home where someone can provide structure, training, and engagement.
Ben is a smart, enthusiastic dog who will shine with a family that can give him guidance, outlets for his energy, and plenty of love.
All animals are up-to-date on vaccinations (including rabies if over 4 months old), microchipped, and spayed or neutered. All dogs have been been vaccinated with DHPP and Bordatella (kennel cough) and heartworm tested negative (if over 6 months). All cats have been vaccinated with FVRCP and current on flea control.
