About Benji

Pal's Place would love to introduce our precious little Benji, an adorable, friendly and social Dachshund mix pup looking for a forever home! Benji was rescued from a high-kill shelter in rural KY. We aren't really sure what they are mixed with. They are short and long like Dachsunds but two of the pups (Basil and Blanche) have longer coats and some spaniel type features. Whatever their breed mix, they sure are cute! They are currently around 10-11 weeks old (12/1) and weigh in around 5 pounds. We are anticipating they will be under 25 pounds when fully grown. Benji and his littermates are all very sweet, gentle and mild-mannered puppies. They will make phenomenal companions for almost any home with the time and energy to raise a young small breed puppy. They love other dogs and they love to cuddle! These little sweethearts will need frequent potty breaks (every 2-3hours or so) for the next several months so please consider if you truly have the time for a puppy prior to applying. Benji's adoption fee is $375. This fee helps to cover his medical expenses while in our care. He will be up to date with age appropriate vaccines, neutered and microchipped prior to being placed. Benji and his siblings are in a foster home and can be seen by appointment only after an application has been received and approved. For more info or for an application, please email [email protected] Unfortunately, we cannot place holds on our dogs for more than a few days after an application has been received and approved for a meeting. Please do not apply to adopt unless you are ready to welcome a dog into your home. �'ۢ Benji's adoption donation is $375. This donation helps to cover his neuter, initial vaccines, initial worming, and microchip. Pal's Place relies solely on donations to care for the pets in our care.
