Benny

Male
Shepherd/Rottie Mix
52.25 lbs (A healthy Medium)

Meet Benny Blueberry, a 3 yo male, Shepherd/Rottie cross who comes in at a healthy 52.25 lbs. A people and dogs loving boy that enjoys naps, play time with friends and meal times.

Benny is a joyful, loving and happy dog that is here for the good vibes and energy. He would thrive in an apartment (not afraid of elevators!) or house. He would do well with a single human, male or female, a couple, or a family with older children that wants to include him in their activities in and out of the home.

Cats: Unknown (breed mix has high prey drive, would need slow supervised introductions)
Dogs: No preference for males, females or size.
Kids: 12 years+
Grooming: Standard, bath once a month and the occasional Furminator/Brush to keep the shedding at bay.

Benny is collecting his gold stars for his rewards points when it comes to walking on a leash, basic commands like sit and down. He is learning to settle very well in the home, known as place, and is crate trained and potty trained, too. He is food motivated and adores squeaky plushy toys, too. Which he cherishes in lieu of tearing into them to get the fluff everywhere.

Benny is the definition of unconditional love. His person and/or people are out there, who are wanting and willing to show him that love is an action, and a two way street. Bennys Love Language is Quality Time. For someone to show up every day for him, to gently lead him and build his confidence, that the world is big and beautiful, when explored together. Benny Blueberry will happily strut at your side, nap in the home and would appreciate a treat or two to seal the deal.

If you are looking for the spunky energy of a GSD in a more compact size, and the soulful depth of a Rottie, then Benny
