Benji - Cairn Terrier and Wirehaired Terrier Dog for Adoption in Thompson Falls, Montana

This is Benji, a very handsome and little 3 or 4 year-old and 6 lb guy who is joining us to find a home here in our area. He came in on a Wings of Rescue Memorial flight for a rescuer who lost his life in the Ukraine. HE is one of 34 who came to us on this flight. And he and 3 chihuahua girls were picked up in Kansas from the shelter that the gentleman being remembered used to help when he wasn't being an air traffic controller in kansas. He is a wire haired terrier for sure but may be mostly cairn terrier we think. But only a DNA test will tell us for sure. He's totally adorable, dog friendly, people friendly but a bit wary due to all hes been through. He is ready to go home. He has his vaccines and he has been neutered and microchipped. He would likely be great as a Tv or walking companion. His adoption fee is $300 and if you're interested in him please fill out an application on our website and we'll get back to you within 24 hours.
