Benji

Give a warm welcome to Benji! He may be a little shy at first, but this gentle and sweet boy is steadily coming out of his shell. Once he feels comfortable, he’s ready to play and let his fun personality shine. Benji is a spunky youngster with plenty of puppy energy to share. He tolerates but doesn’t really engage with his foster cat sibling. 

Benji is a loveable guy who aims to please. He listens well and is picking up lots of new things every day. He enjoys a nice walk, though he’s still polishing his leash manners. Sometimes his excitement bubbles over and he jumps up to say hello, especially around children.

Tri-colored Benji is mostly black, with an adorable racing stripe on his head. One of his cutest habits is rubbing his head into the pillows until he gives himself a tiny mohawk—silly, but absolutely precious. When he’s finished, he’s happy to curl up right next to you. Benji does have some separation anxiety, but he is slowly improving as he builds confidence. He loves having company nearby and will even politely snooze on your pillow at night.

This lap-loving dog is an angel, one to treasure and adore. Will you be the one to open your heart to Benji?
