Bento’s rescue story is rough. Someone starved him down to 15 lbs, dumped him in a trash bag by a dumpster, and left him for dead. Two neighbors heard his cries and got help—he survived because of them. Since then, a foster home helped him recover: he put on healthy weight, got his strength back, and learned that people can be kind. Now at 35 lbs, Bento is fully recovered, neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. He’s waiting for a home that sees him for the good-hearted, funny, gentle pup he’s become. He gets along well with other dogs and children, and he’s house trained. Because of his breed, adopters must own their home—no exceptions. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
