About Benjamin Franklin (Photos June 6th 2026) (In Foster to Adopt)

Benjamin Franklin is a handsome 2-year-old male Chocolate Labrador Retriever mix who arrived at our shelter as a stray. He was found without a collar or microchip, and sadly, his family never came forward to reclaim him. Benjamin has a beautiful chocolate brown coat, expressive brown eyes, a charming milk chocolate nose, and large, floppy ears. He has a very sweet, easygoing personality and was a true professional during his photoshoot, posing calmly and collectedly. He weighs 41.8 lbs and walks gently on a leash. Benjamin is currently in a foster-to-adopt home and is scheduled to be neutered.
