My story

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

Special Needs. I am Blind, but I get along just fine. I do everything any other dog does. I just ask to be an only dog.

I'm Benny!  I cannot lie.  I like all of the attention!  I'm also very playful and unfortunately I ended up playing too roughly with a dog friend that was a lot bigger than me and I had an accident and lost the sight in both eyes.  My foster mom says I'm still handsome so I'm not really worried about it.  It hasn't slowed me down a bit.  However, now I would prefer a home with no other dogs because I really want all of the attention from my human.  I do like cats!  My foster mom also says that I have to stay with her just a little while longer while I heal up after my surgery but I don't mind.  I love to cuddle up on the couch and chill out after a busy day of play with my people.  If you have kids, I would love to play with them but I prefer that they are older, like in their teens, and know how to play nicely.  Babies, toddlers, and kids kind of scare me and they really don't know how to play like I like to play.  I hope you will pick me! Let's play!
