Meet Ben! Ben is a 2 year old playful boy bursting with energy and joy. At just a couple of years old, he’s in the prime of his life and ready to find a forever family who can keep up with his fun-loving spirit. Ben’s favorite things? Running, playing, and joining in on all the action! His foster family says his energy seems endless, he loves to chase toys, especially soccer balls, and would make the perfect buddy for kids or other dogs who enjoy a good game of backyard fun. While he can keep himself entertained, he’s happiest when he has playmates to join in the excitement. Though we don’t know Ben’s exact breed, his foster family suspects a mix of Boxer, cattle dog, Australian Shepherd, or Blue Heeler, whatever the combination, it gave him plenty of smarts, stamina, and curiosity. Ben is gentle in play, crate trained, and already knows a few commands, but he’s eager to learn more. He’s the kind of dog who would thrive with a “job” or active family who enjoys adventures, training, or outdoor activities. Ben does well with kids and other dogs, though cats remain a bit of a question, he’s curious but unsure. He’s always interested in what everyone is doing, and his happy personality makes him a wonderful companion for families looking for a fun and engaging dog. Ben is heartworm negative, neutered, up to date on all vaccines, and on monthly preventatives to keep him healthy and ready for all of life’s adventures. If your family is active, playful, and ready for a dog who will bring both fun and love into your lives, Ben might just be the perfect match!
