In the shelter’s words

Ben is with our rescue partner down south and can come to NJ if we find a foster or adopter. Meet Ben! Sweet, gentle, and full of love, this adorable boy just wants to be part of the family. Ben is wonderful with kids, plays nicely with other dogs, and would love a home with a friendly canine companion. Ben is okay with cats, but he may try to play chase if they run. This smart boy is house, crate, and leash-trained and is ready for a family of his own! Ben’s foster family in Louisiana describes him as easy to love, gentle, affectionate, and great with children. He listens well and just wants to be included. If he’s bored, he might try to dig for fun, so chew toys and bones help keep him happy and entertained! Ben is ready to be someone’s loyal and loving companion. Could that be you? Ben is fixed, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccines. His adoption donation is $500. Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home.
