About Ben

Meet Ben! This delightful three-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier is looking for his forever home. Weighing in at a solid 80 pounds and sporting a lovely yellow-tan fawn coat, Ben has a sweet and loyal disposition. He thrives in an outdoor-loving environment, making him a perfect fit for active families. Ben enjoys car rides and long walks, and he has learned basic commands well. With good leash manners despite his strength, he is a joy on outings. Ben does well with children aged 13 and older, provided they are kind and sturdy enough to handle his exuberance. He was found wandering in a neighborhood and approached children with gentleness, so he seems to be quite dog social too. He happily keeps his crate tidy and loves to chew on bones during quiet time. A secure, fenced yard will keep him safe while he enjoys his adventures. If Ben sounds like the right companion for you, consider applying to adopt him!
