About Benji

Meet Benji! Benji is a loving 1-year-old, 37-pound scruffy Terrier mix, radiating warmth and playfulness. This affectionate boy adores cuddling and will happily soak up all the attention his people have to offer. A fan of toys and long walks, he’s full of energy for adventures. While he has good leash manners, he might need the occasional reminder to stay relaxed and enjoy the stroll. Squirrels? Those are definitely his weakness! Benji is house trained, adapts well to his crate after a brief settling-in period, making him a delightful house guest. Though he's not particularly food motivated, his eagerness to stay close to people shines through. He gets along well with other dogs and being more on the submissive side, might love having a furry friend, but he can thrive as your one and only companion too. Ready to bring joy, snuggles, and endless tail wags into your home, Benji is eager for his forever family. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
