Benton - Shepherd and Beagle Dog for Adoption in Falls Church, Virginia

Hi, I'm Benton and I'm very cute. I'm just a baby. I'm about 3 -4 months old and weigh about 10 lbs now. I'll probably get to about 50ish lbs when full grown.

The shelter said that I'm a shepherd mix. My foster mom thinks I may have some beagle or other small/medium size breed in me. I'm black and tan.

I am a playful, curious and very smart little guy. I love other dogs. I live with a bunch of other dogs and love them. We have so much fun together. I'm quite confident for a puppy.

I came to the shelter as an owner surrender. I'd love to have a family/person of my own.

I have my puppy vaccines but my new family will have to get me neutered when I'm 6 months old.

I'm really close to being potty trained already!!

My foster mom will update my pictures and bio as I settle in.

I'm being fostered in Fairfax, VA. I can be adopted to the DC metro area, the Richmond area and the Harrisonburg area.

My adoption fee is $350.

If you think you think you could give me a great home, please contact my foster mom at dmmarson@hotmail.com.

Thanks.
Benton
