Benny is a focused learner who is already crate-trained, house-trained, and rides well in the car. He has mastered sit and shake, and is nearly there with the "stay" command, showing just how much he enjoys having a job to do. Benny thrives on mental stimulation, loves a game of fetch, and gets along well with other dogs. He is at his most relaxed while playing in a fenced backyard, where he is comfortable and unfazed by outside noises. While he is an affectionate companion who loves to follow his person everywhere, he is also a sensitive dog currently working with trainers to overcome a fear of moving vehicles and bicycles. Because he bonds so deeply, he needs a savvy owner who can provide the structure and positive reinforcement he needs to feel secure when others approach. In fact, if you're a bit of a homebody who prefers the company of a loyal dog over a crowd of people, you and Benny might be the perfect match! Benny is doing well with his muzzle training and consistent management, and he is working hard to be the best version of himself. He would thrive in a home with a fenced yard where he can run and play. His adoption includes two free training sessions with Clementine Dog Training to help set up a strong foundation. If you are looking for a smart, loyal companion and have the heart to help a sensitive dog shine, Benny is your boy! 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. His adoption fee is $200. All CAWS animals are fixed, microchipped, and vaccinated. If you are interested in adopting a CAWS pet, please fill out an online application at caws/adoption-application

  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.
