Hey there, animal lovers! 🌟 Meet Ben, the big, handsome 90-lb Anatolian Shepherd mix who’s on the journey of a lifetime! At just 1 year old, Ben is still figuring out this wild, wonderful world, and let me tell you, he is a delightful work in progress! Can you believe he came to us feeling a bit shy and unsure? But every single day, this incredible boy is discovering that humans can be kind, patient, and safe—and he’s learning that love is just around the corner! ❤️ Now, I know it takes a bit of time for Ben to warm up, but oh, the rewards are worth it! He needs a little TLC, consistency, and a joyful guide to help him build the confidence he deserves! A future adopter who has experience with training (or is ready to commit to a training journey) is a must because Ben’s still honing those leash-walking skills. 🚶‍♂️ But don’t let that deter you! With guidance, he’s showing steady progress and a keen eagerness to learn. Here’s the magic ingredient: Ben is dog-friendly! 🐕 A confident canine companion could help him flourish even more as he navigates his way through life! If you love the great outdoors and understand large guardian breeds, you are exactly who Ben is hoping for! With a little heart, structure, and patience, Ben is poised to become both a fantastic outdoor buddy and a calm, cozy indoor family member. 🏞️🏡 Our professional trainer sees immense potential in him—just imagine how loyal and amazing this boy could be with the right home! Ben is neutered, heartworm negative, fully vaccinated, and microchipped—ready to start his next chapter with someone special. Are you that person?
