Notes from Paws Across Pittsburgh

Meet Benji – Your Well-Mannered Adventure Buddy with a Big Heart Benji is a 1-year-old, 48-pound hound mix with soulful eyes, a curious nose, and a heart full of love. This handsome guy is house-trained, crate-trained, and incredibly smart. He's worked hard on his training and has excellent manners, making him a wonderful companion both at home and out on adventures. Benji knows sit, down, place, wait, loose leash walking, great recall, and polite door manners. He loves learning, enjoys having structure and routine, and takes pride in being a true gentleman. He sits politely for attention, respects personal space, and is happiest when he has a job to do or an adventure to share with his favorite people. Active and playful, Benji would love a family who enjoys hiking, running, long walks, or simply exploring the outdoors. While Benji is not particularly interested in meeting strangers, he knows how to be a gentleman while out and about. He's perfectly content focusing on his family rather than socializing with everyone he meets. Benji would do best as the only pet in a home with older children, where he can enjoy the attention, structure, and companionship he deserves. In return, you'll gain an incredibly devoted, fun-loving best friend who will happily be your partner on every adventure. He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and is available for adoption now through Paws Across Pittsburgh, Springdale, PA KL# 16182.
