Benedict's Story

Hi, I’m Benedict!<br/><br/>I’m a happy, affectionate puppy with a big heart and a curious mind. I love people and am always excited to make new friends. When I meet someone new, I might get a little jumpy with excitement at first, but it’s only because I’m so thrilled to say hello.<br/><br/>I’m a social guy who enjoys meeting other dogs and loves a good play session. On playdates, I show healthy, friendly puppy play and have a great time running around with my canine buddies. On walks I’m very curious about the world and sometimes pull toward people or dogs because I want to greet them, but I’m learning quickly with the help of treats and positive reinforcement.<br/><br/>I’m a smart boy who’s already picking up the house routine. I know to go potty outside, sleep well in my crate at night, and I’m learning commands like sit. I’m very food motivated, which makes training fun and rewarding for both of us. My recall is improving too—especially if there are kibbles involved!<br/><br/>Like many puppies, I’m still learning what is and isn’t a toy. I love to chew, so having appropriate chews and supervision helps me stay on the right track. I’m also an active pup who thrives with exercise, playtime, and mental enrichment. A couple of daily walks, play sessions, and activities keep me happy and ready to relax afterward.<br/><br/>At home, I’m incredibly sweet and loving with my people. One of my favorite things to do is lean in for pets and then flop over for belly rubs. I bond quickly and enjoy being close to my humans, though I’m also learning to relax during short periods in my crate during the day.<br/><br/>With his floppy ears, loving personality, and eagerness to learn, Benedict is sure to bring a lot of joy and laughter to the lucky family who welcomes him home.<br/>Benedict was born approximately April 2025 and will be a medium to large dog when fully grown.<br/><br/>His adoption fee is $475.
