A little about them

Please welcome Benny, a very happy 10-month-old poodle mix weighing 14.5 pounds. He is very skinny and needs to gain a few pounds. Benny loves comfy beds and blankets, sitting on his foster mom’s lap, exploring the yard, and following the resident dogs.

He was severely matted when he arrived, with nails curled under his paw pads, and was shaved to help him feel more comfortable. Benny may have lived outdoors previously and is learning about household sounds and routines. He is sweet, curious, and learning how to play and cuddle. With guidance, patience, and lots of love, he has wonderful potential.
