My story

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

Benjamin was found on the street by a good samaritan. He had a leg that was hurt and they took him to the vet. The surgery was too expensive and he was taken to Miami Dade Animal Services. He was there for a few days and could only walk on 3 legs. He was rescued by IPAW and got fully vetted. He had his tibia surgery, got neutered, and is up to date on shots and prevention. Benjamin was in a home with a larger female dog and did well. We think he would do better alone or with a larger female. He didn’t do well with cats in the home. He chased them and was aggressive. He wasn’t playful. He also met a male basset hound and that didn’t go well either. He does need some training but is housebroken. He would also do better with older children, not young children.
