BENJAMIN
Standard Poodle, Black Labrador Retriever
🇺🇸
Apache Junction, Arizona
June 16th
male, medium, adult
DESCRIPTION
Meet Benjamin (~1.5-2yro)
Benjamin is the kind of dog who will steal your heart and probably your dinner... if you're not watching :) This affectionate, cuddly standard doodle is equal parts lover and goofball - playful, mischievous, and full of personality. He gives the best snuggles and will happily be your shadow around the house.
Benjamin is energetic and smart, which means he thrives with daily engagement, training, and structure. While he is endlessly charming, he needs someone who will show up for him consistently. He has previously lived happily with Frenchies and appears to be very dog social, but slow intros (crate and rotate) are always expected during his transition to a new home.
Benjamin is settled into his foster home and picking up his training rapidly; he is looking for an adopter who is ready to make a real commitment - someone who loves to train, understands the poodle/doodle breed, and can give him the active, structured home he deserves. In the right hands, he is going to be an absolutely incredible companion.
Ideal home: Experienced dog owner, poodle/doodle breed knowledge a plus, older children preferred (or adult only home), daily training commitment required.
Benjamin's adoption fee is $500.
