For Adopt a Pet and the PEDIGREE® brand, October is all about finding homes for dogs in shelters. Adopt this month for a PEDIGREE® Wet Food Pouch and a chance to win a Homecoming-style photo shoot and shelter donation.
I found a new home! Plenty of my friends are looking for one too. Check out other pets at this shelter, or start a new search.

The name is Benji, and I need to set the record straight. I may have been picked up as a stray, but I wasn’t “astray”… Have you ever heard the saying “Not all who wander are lost”? Well, that is my case exactly! I am on the search for the best thing I could ever ask for: a forever family… Word on the doggy grapevine is that this is the place to make it happen. Can you believe my luck? So here I am—I don’t need a spotlight or to be a movie star; I just wanna be loved! I get along well with the other dogs here and really love to play even if I don’t like to share my goodies, but let me tell ya, meeting the kitty cats was a whole other story, so no cats for me! I won the Crate King championship just the other day for catching on to my crate training so quickly; I mean, there isn’t really much to it. I don’t appreciate tail-tuggers, I am fella who likes my boundaries respected and I won’t hesitate to speak my mind about it… and I am absolutely not willing to share my food bowl, I’m a fella who will guard the things that I hold dear. So I need a family with kids 14+ where everyone understands how to read my cues and respect my space. Maybe you would consider having me wander into your life, even if I ain’t no movie star?
