Benji is available for adoption in Orange County! This adorable little guy is 14 weeks old and weighs about 13lbs. He's neutered, microchipped, needs one more round of vaccines, and is current on his flea meds.
We aren't totally sure of his breed, but we are guessing he might have some hound and dachshund in him!
Benji is social and good with other dogs. His favorite thing is having his people nearby, so he would do best in a home with a family who is around most of the time. He is good with kids, although (like most puppies) he has land shark tendencies so calmer kids would be best for him!
He is super cuddly and loves to be held. He's enjoying the company of the calm dogs in his foster home and is slowly warming up to playing with the more energetic dog in his foster home. He is a TOTAL love!
He is very much a puppy, so he will need a home with people who are willing to invest time into his training, including crate, potty, and obedience. For the family willing to put in the effort, he's going to be an amazing, loyal, loving dog!
