Ben arrived from Mississippi on March 1st but needed a bit of time to gain some trust. He's coming along really well and here is what we can share about Ben today. He is a good listener, likes sitting on the couch watching TV and seems to prefer men to women. His foster dad says once he gave Ben some time to warm up to him, he has been very loving and follows him everywhere. If he is out in the yard he will also come when called. Ben really likes other dogs but seems more fond of dogs his size or smaller. He is good in his crate and doesn’t bark when left alone. Ben is making excellent grades in house training and he is really eager to please. Ben did test positive for heartworms but his treatment is scheduled very soon. He will make an excellent companion for a family who can just show him a little time and patience.
