Benny

My story

Meet Benny! Hey guys, my name is Benny! Although, my friends call me Benny Boy or Stinky Boy. I am a labrador retriever mix, and I weigh in at about 65lbs. I don't remember my exact birthday, but my friends at the shelter helped me pick a new one, 03/31/2021. I've been here at the shelter for a while now, since the begining of 2022, but I just haven't found the right home yet. You see, when I came to the shelter, I had lots of scars on my legs that my new friends wanted to know about. Let's just say my life before this wasn't very nice, so it was really hard for me to trust these new people. They were very patient with me, they gave me lots of treats and reassurance, and I realized that not all people would treat me like I used to be. In fact, I actually really like making friends now! One of my favorite things to do is to run around and play in our play yards, chasing toys and enjoying the sunshine with all kinds of people to keep me company. Some of my absolute favorite things are yummy treats, and a nice rubber ball (bonus points if it squeaks). I love having my ball so much, sometimes I carry it around all day long. I enjoy spending time with other dogs, but I'd be just as happy to have my people all to myself. Of course, if you do already have any dogs at home, I would definitely need to meet them before I agreed to live with them. I'm not a fan of cats, so a home without is best. Even though my shelter friends have shown me how great people can be to me, I can still sometimes be a little bit shy when I meet brand-new people, so be a little patient with me. I would really love your help finding a forever home that will give me all the love I could ever need.  Interested in this loving guy?
