Ben Mixed Breed Fredericksburg, VA

Approximate DOB: 7/5/23
Approximate Weight: 30lbs

Hi, my name is Ben aka the super snugger!! Did you know most fosters have a "favorite age" to foster...well I just hit it! It's the older puppy group. I am starting into all of my basic skills and am able to hold my potty for longer times. I love to chase toys and run super fast. I literally run circles around my brother in the yard. If you roll or squeak anything I will pick it up and run, I sure love toys. At my foster home, I've been quiet during the night, keeping in mind that my brother is with me. My foster family is amazed that I am learning house manners so quickly. I haven't made a mess at night either. My foster family is very happy about that in the morning. They reward me with lots of cuddles and that makes my day! They tell me I am a very smart boy! If you want an active, smart, fast puppy, come on out and meet me and we can race!

As a puppy, I am required to go to training within 90 days of my adoption with a certified trainer.

What breed am I? Mixed mutt! ODHS does not breed label (unless there’s official paperwork), as studies show it is nearly impossible to tell the exact breed of each dog based off of their appearance.
