BENSON
Male Mystery Mix ?
Approx 20 lbs
Approx 3-4 yrs

Benson showed up in a neighborhood in Pittsburg
With no collar, no ID or chip

A Good Samaritan rescued him and posted him on Next Door

Her landlord wouldn’t let her keep him very long but she didn’t want to take him to a Shelter and neither did we so now he’s at Mutt Muffins 🐕

PAWSITIVES

He’s a very sweet, gentle, docile, quiet couch potato 🥔

He’s dog and cat tolerant and would be fine with young kids

He’s housebroken and crate trained

He’s not destructive and doesn’t have any separation anxiety which is a definite plus

QUIRKS

He does have some mild food aggression…not towards people but he will growl if other dogs get too close while he’s eatting

This is pretty common when a dog has been stray and is not difficult to manage …..

SUMMARY

We don’t know his back-story but we don’t think he’s had abuse, he’s stable and brings man
