Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

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


Benji is around 1.5 years old and we believe he’s a Staffordshire mix. We found him a few months ago in terrible shape on our street. He has blossomed into an affectionate, loyal, and absolutely lovable dog. Benji is a natural snuggler—he loves to cozy up with his humans any chance he gets. He’s also incredibly well-behaved, a quick learner, sits on command, loves laying in the sunshine, and lives to make his people happy. He does great on car rides and has gone on many trips with us. His joy is contagious, and he loves with his whole heart.

We believe that Benji, who has endured his own share of past trauma, is simply sensitive to loud barking, especially with out older male dog who is also reactive. Benji would do best in a one-dog household where he can be the center of attention and soak up all the love he deserves.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will be your best friend or know someone who is, and can offer him a calm environment where he’ll be showered with love.
