Benny has been adopted into a wonderful home!
Original:
This little guy has had a rough start in life. He is a black and white Springer with a full tail. He is underweight and has not had the best nutrition in his first 5.5 months of life. He is only weighs 18 pounds, but we are working on building his weight up. He still has some baby teeth and his canines have not come in fully yet so the vet placed him at about 5.5 months of age.
Benny has spent his entire life in a shelter and has never had the warmth and love of a family. He is doing exceptionally well in his foster home. He has already been neutered and is UTD on all of his shots. Despite his rough start, he just loves people and other dogs. He is very loveable. He is a typical puppy and loves to get into things and play. Everything is a game…. He has only had one accident in the house in a week, which is pretty good for a dog that has not had much training or been in a house environment. He is crate-trained since he has spent his life in a kennel. He has learned how to sit and lay down and give his paw in just one week. He has very good instincts and is a very smart little dog. He loves to run and take walks in the woods. He will be under 40 pounds and will be small when he is full grown, but he is very fast and lean. This guy is yearning for a home and family of his home. Can you shower him with love and show him what life is like outside of the shelter?
