My story

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

Benny's story with his foster mom started awhile ago when he was caught by animal control in the woods in Delaware County. This pup deserves nothing but a human that will love and care for him. you can view many videos under foster mom's you tube account 'you tube tammy feby' Benny still can be a grump with his issues, but if someone can just deal with his quirks they will have a devoted best friend. Benny is crate trained, and for the most part sleeps a lot - especially in the winter. He could seriously sleep through the winter, in his crate under a blanket with a sweater on. In the warm and hot months he loves to sun outside. Once in awhile Benny gets frisky and will throw a soft toy around. Benny has had 19 teeth removed and a recent dental cleaning, and most times still has stinky breath, the vet said he's just one of those dogs. Foster mom has tried brushing his teeth but Benny becomes a land shark and stresses out. Foster mom is able to use dental wipes so a little bit of cleaning can be done and Benny does enjoy a Greenie once in awhile. Foster mom is hoping a forever home comes a long for Benny, just because he would thrive in a one on one relationship with someone. Benny is neutered, UTD on vaccines, HW tested & micro-chipped.
