meet ben!
Ben was rescued from a hoarding case in Modesto, where he lived with 86 other dogs. He is decompressing and is now ready to find a home with or without other dogs. A home with an enclosed yard would be ideal for Ben, but not necessarily required.
From Ben’s previous foster: Ben has been opening up every day; he is now asking for pets and wanting to be close to cuddle. He is working on being comfortable when the humans are away but does well sleeping in his crate with a human or dog in the room. He does well with a kong as well. Ben is currently using diapers and will benefit from leash training. He is getting playful and allows full-body touch, but he doesn't love to be held just yet. However, he is comfortable being held with a blanket!
Ben is 18 lbs and described as sweet, affectionate, and playful, but may need some time to adjust to new environments due to his past experiences.
