Benji — Highway Hero Turned Future Family Member Found on a busy highway near a local school, Benji was safely picked up by a kind finder who brought him straight to our officers to keep him out of harm’s way. He had no microchip and was never reclaimed, so now this handsome boy is officially searching for his second chance at becoming a beloved family member. Estimated at 2 years old, Benji has done wonderfully since arriving. He can be a little reserved when meeting new friends in this unfamiliar environment, but he warms up quickly. During his dog meet, he allowed his new canine buddy to sniff him all over — even when she got a little too interested in his ear. He simply jerked his head away, shook it off, and kept his tail wagging the entire time. Such a polite, gentle boy. If you’re ready to open your heart and home to a new family member, Benji is ready for the job. He’s sweet, friendly, and eager to bond with his forever people.
