No awkward teenage phases here—Benji is all heart and charm! Dogs in the adolescent age range, usually between 6 months and 1.5 years old, are said to be in their “unruly” stage, hallmarked by increased energy, tons of brain power, and as much cuteness as they have to offer (which, spoiler alert: is a lot). These pups need to keep their developing brain busy to grow into the best dogs they can be, and Benji is excited to tackle both training AND snuggling with you.
