My story

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

Meet Benji, a young bundle of joy who is always ready to play. His energy is contagious and his friendliness knows no bounds. Whether it`s a game of fetch or a tug-of-war, Benji is always up for fun. Despite his playful nature, he has a sweet side too. He is shy at first, but once he warms up to you, he becomes the cuddliest companion. He loves to snuggle up and give affectionate nuzzles. Despite his lively spirit, Benji can be a little shy and nervous. But don`t worry, he seems to be house trained and is eager to please. He just needs a little time to adjust and is hoping you`ll help him brush up on his leash walking skills. Benji weighs 35 pounds and gets along wonderfully with other dogs, cats, and children, making him a perfect addition to any family. His loving personality shines through in everything he does. Benji deserves a home that will embrace his playful spirit and return his unconditional love. Adopt Benji and let his sweetness fill your home with joy and love. (tw 10/24/2024)
