Meet Benji – your future snuggle buddy and dog training champion!
Benji’s story started out a little ruff. This scruffy-faced smart cookie was once left out in the cold with barely any shelter, until his rescuers brought him to safety and a loving foster home. Since then, he has made a lot of progress and has made a number of human and dog friends. He’s almost fully house-trained, has been learning cues such as Sit, Touch, Place, Find It, and more. He’s now eager to find his forever (or foster-to-adopt) home!
Benji is a lovable mixed breed with a low-shedding coat and a heart full of love. He’s got energy to spare when it’s playtime, but when it’s nap time? He’s the ultimate cuddle bug. He sleeps in his crate and has been learning to chill like a pro.
He’s very intelligent, eager to learn, loves his food puzzles and games, and will happily walk with you and enjoy outdoor adventures.
Because of his past, Benji is still working on his doggy social skills and can be a bit territorial at times. He’d currently thrive either as the only dog in the home or with a calm, dog-friendly companion who respects his space. A home without young children would be the best fit for him.
Benji is looking for a family that’s committed to positive reinforcement and force-free training methods. With consistency, patience, and kindness, he’s eager to keep learning new behaviors, build confidence, and expand his repertoire of life skills. He’s come such a long way already, and with the right support, he’ll truly shine!
Benji is a 2 year old adolescent, neutered, and up-to-date on his vaccines.
