About Benny Playful friendly

Meet Benny, a 3-year-old, 18-pound mixed breed with a heart full of love. He’s a cuddler by nature, sweet and affectionate, yet playful enough to keep life fun. Benny is up to date on vaccinations and has already been neutered, making him a well-rounded companion. If you have other pets, you'll be glad to know Benny gets along with dogs of all sizes and is friendly with cats too. He adores people and thrives on making new friends. He’s also crate trained, so he knows how to settle down when needed. While he's typically calm, Benny will alert you with a little bark if he hears something unusual, but rest assured, he's not an excessive barker. Mostly, he enjoys following you around, playing, and curling up next to you for some quality cuddle time. Benny is looking for a foster-to-adopt family—someone to experience life with him at home, enjoying walks, treats, and all the simple joys of companionship. If, for any reason, he isn’t the right fit, his rescue will find him another home without any pressure on you. Transport runs every other weekend, and he can meet his new family in locations like Winchester, VA, East Hartford, CT, or Brattleboro, VT. Benny only wants a loving family and a comfy place to sleep, ready to share his love for a lifetime. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
