him grow into the best dog he can be. At just 4 months old, he’s already crate-trained, making progress with house training, and quick to pick up household routines. He’s clever, eager to please, and full of potential—though he sometimes adds a touch of stubbornness to keep things interesting. True to his herding breed mix, Bennie is intelligent and needs a family who understands the unique needs of Border Collies and Aussies. He thrives on work, structure, and challenges that keep his mind busy. Ongoing training and enrichment will be key to helping him shine. This shy boy can be a little particular about who he bonds with, but once Bennie decides you’re his person, his love and loyalty run deep. He’s playful, especially with other dogs, though his style can be a bit rough-and-tumble. A home with another compatible dog could be a great fit, though slow introductions are best. Bennie has medium energy and exercise needs—he loves playtime and would benefit from a yard to stretch his legs. He’s still young, so he can’t be crated for long workdays yet, but with consistency and training, he’ll continue to blossom. Bennie would do best with: -A family experienced with herding breeds -Someone willing to continue his training and give him “jobs” to do -A yard to play and explore -Another playful dog (if compatible) If you’re looking for a smart, loyal pup who will be deeply devoted to his person, Bennie may just be your perfect match. Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis. We strive to find the perfect home for each animal. Applications may take up to 48 hours to process. All CAWS animals are fixed, microchipped, and vaccinated. Her adoption fee is $300.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
