Shepherd and Hound Dogs Available for Adoption in Wolcott, Connecticut

APPLY FOR BENNY

I'm Benny, a 4 month old, 15 lb, possibly Shepherd mix cutie, but let's be honest, we aren't totally positive! One thing's for sure: I'm one of the cutest gentlemen you'll ever meet.



I get along with kids, other dogs and kitties. I'm still working on perfecting my housebreaking skills, kind of like a doggy college student figuring out the routine. But don't worry, I'm on the right track! I've got a stellar potty routine with my foster siblings outside, I just need to make sure my schedule is as organized as a squirrel with a nut stash! Oh, and did I mention I'm crate trained? My crate is my man cave.



Car rides? Yes, please! I'm that pup with the window down, ears flapping in the breeze, just soaking up the good vibes. And toys? I adore them ALL! Squeaky, crinkly, or even that quirky rubber chicken that makes everyone question their life choices, I'm all in! What I really want is a family to share epic adventures with, toss toys around, and have some fun training sessions! Trust me, once you meet me, you'll see I'm destined to be the best pup ever!
