My story

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

If you’re looking for the cutest little ornament to brighten up your home, Ben is absolutely your boy. He’s adorable, gentle, and happiest just being part of the scene.

Ben isn’t ready for a lot of hands-on affection yet. He prefers to keep a little distance and decide for himself when he feels safe enough to get closer. With time, patience, and a calm environment, he will get there — always on his own terms.  He is two years old and weighs about 15 pounds.

What truly brings out his confidence is other dogs. Ben loves playing, following, and hanging out with canine friends, and a home with another friendly dog would help him feel secure and supported.

Ben is looking for someone who understands that trust grows slowly and beautifully. If you’re the kind of person who celebrates small victories and lets a dog bloom at his own pace, Ben might be the perfect match.
