My personality

My story

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

Benson is a neutered male ~2yr old bully mix that is looking for a sport or working home. Benson is high food and toy drive for training. He's confident, bomb proof, and eager to learn new things. Benson will engage with his toy with anyone at any location. We recommend him for detection, wilderness SAR, or sport placement.

More about this rescue

Category 5 K9 works with shelters, rescues, and owners to identify dogs that have the potential to become working canines. We work with these dogs to find a job they will excel at, whether that is search and rescue, narcotics detection, or service work. Occasionally we will pull a dog that after evaluation does not appear to have what it takes either physically or environmentally for the programs we work with. These dogs are made available for adoption to pet and sport homes.
