🐾 And Then There Was One…

This morning, Benny watched as his buddy Pepper walked out the door with his new family. Now it’s just Benny… waiting.
He’s been extra clingy this afternoon, leaning into every hug, quietly following us around — as if to say, “Is it my turn yet?”

Benny is around 6 years old — the perfect mix of mellow and playful. He still has a little pep in his step for walks and backyard fun, but what he loves most is simply being by your side. He’s a loyal, loving companion who just wants a soft bed and someone to love him back.

His adoption fee has been lowered to $100 for this month, and he comes neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and healthy. He’s good with most other dogs, adores kids, and we’re not sure how he is with cats.

Please, don’t let Benny be the one left behind. 💛
Send us a message or call 📞 816-532-0070 to set up a time to meet this sweet boy.
