Story
Meet Binn Binn is a 5-year-old Maltese mix, weighing about 10 pounds, with the gentlest soul. He was found after being dumped in an industrial area, confused and alone—but despite what he’s been through, he remains incredibly sweet and loving. He is a bit shy at first and takes a minute to feel comfortable, but once he knows he’s safe, his affectionate side shines through. He does well with other dogs and cats and would thrive in a patient, calm home that allows him to build trust at his own pace. He is neutered, microchipped, and current on vaccines, and ready to start the next chapter of his life in a forever home. Adoption fee: $550If you’re looking for a gentle companion who just needs a little time—and a lot of love—Binn may be your perfect match. https://www.instagram.com/p/DUFL5U1ETXf/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== ##2654166##
