Story
6-9 months, 38 lbs and probably not much bigger. Ideal work-from-home companion, ESA animal or family pet. This sweet girl has an unconditional trust of every human she meets. We found her starving, stinking like skunk and covered in bugs on the side of the road. She came right to us without hesitation. After everything she had been through she is still fully convinced that every human is her new bestie. After a bath, her first meal in weeks and sleeping for two days her personality began to sparkle through. She LOVES to cuddle on the couch and curl up next to a sleeping human, particularly kids. She has a puppy love of chewing but is gentle with her mouth around humans. If an adult is on the computer she is content to curl up on a bed beneath the desk. Around familiar dogs she is playful, submissive and defers to her elders without drama. But she is often intimidated by new dogs and will bark at them. Heartworm positive, will need treatment.

Story
Benny was found running the streets in a stray dog pack in the Rio Grande Valley. When he first came here, he was fearful around men and could be a bully to new dogs, but he's come a long way since then. Once he gets to know you, he's a sweet, funny, playful dog who wants to be with you as much as possible. Benny was initially cat-aggressive, but he's been around cats for several months and has grown used to them. He mostly ignores them but sometimes chases them. He can be around cats, but should not be left alone with them. (I kennel him when we leave.) Benny gets along well with most female dogs, but he can be dominant towards male dogs. He shows some resource guarding of both food and people and seems to want to "defend" his people from other dogs. That doesn't mean he can't get along with other dogs or other male dogs, but he needs to be introduced to other dogs carefully. The same can be true for introducing him to new people---he needs some time to build trust. Someone who is willing to take time and socialize Benny with other people and animals would be a great adopter. Benny is a great dog who really wants to please. He is loving, affectionate, and playful.
