02/26/2026 Foster Feedback: Benson is an adorable little guy. He is working on potty training and is showing improvement. Benson likes someone to be outside with him. He loves kids a home with small kids might not be ideal. Benson has anxiety with strangers encroaching on his space. This appears to be something he gets over when he knows and trusts people. He loves snuggles and hanging out with his person. Benson will require some training but he will be an awesome companion. ​ To view additional dogs available for adoption, please see our website: www.4luvofdog.org
