My story

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

💕🐾 Say Hello to Benito! 🐾💕

This handsome boy has traveled a long way for a second chance. Benito came all the way from Puerto Rico, where he was facing a very uncertain future. Thanks to an incredible rescue partnership, he is now safe, loved, and ready to find his forever home. 💛

At about 20 weeks old and weighing around 23 pounds, Benito is the perfect mix of playful puppy energy and sweet snuggle potential. His breed? We’re calling it a blend of adorable and irresistible — because honestly, that face says it all.

Despite everything he’s been through, Benito’s spirit is bright and joyful. Now that he’s safe, his personality is truly shining. ✨

He is:
🐾 Loving and affectionate
🐾 Playful and full of puppy curiosity
🐾 Happy to soak up attention and belly rubs
🐾 Ready to learn and grow with his forever family

Benito has that happy bounce in his step and the kind of tail wag that can light up a room. He’s discovering just how wonderful life can be.
