About Benny

This 5-year-old Shepherd/Lab mix (we know his mom and she's a black Lab) is the perfect blend of loyal companion and easygoing best friend. Benny comes when called and has terrific manners, waiting until you say 'OK' before heading out the door or enjoying his meals. Did we say he's food motivated? He sure is and it makes him a great lover of training sessions. He could be an easy dog to teach all kinds of tricks because he's really smart. Benny does well in the car and loves to go on adventures to new places. His enthusiasm for walks can sometimes get the better of him, especially if he spies a lizard or two, but his foster mom has been working with him on loose leash walking and he's doing great. In truth, Benny is really happiest when he's at home with his people. He loves being by your side, will follow you around the house, cuddle, act like a lap dog if you let him. If you work at home, he will be your quiet companion not interrupting phone or Zoom calls, just snoozing at your feet. He is perfectly house trained and sleeps in his dog bed through the night. Of course, if you want him to, he would LOVE to share the bed with you. Benny doesn't beg for food and won't chew your belongings or rugs or baseboards; he's way past that stage. Just roll a ball in his direction and he's your friend for life. Benny has lived harmoniously with cats and two other dogs, but he can be selective so careful intros are always best practice. He also shared his first home with a couple of children and proved to be a very gentle buddy. Benny thrives in a calm, kind environment, where someone is home most of the time. Most of all, he wants to be by your side, wherever you are. If you're looking for a devoted, low-maintenance, and loving companion, Benny's your guy.
