Found as a stray wearing a collar and dragging a leash, Benny is fitting in well to his new setting. We are hoping his family will come looking for him, but it’s unlikely now that that will happen. Benny is great with other dogs, great with cats, has learned  to use the doggie door, And loves being a lap dog. We think he would enjoy living with an active senior, although he might be underfoot and that might be an issue. If you can offer a nice comfortable lap, that would be awesome for him. He does have some scrapes on his face that have not yet been addressed, but we’re not sure what’s going on there.
