Psst… hi! Benji in RI here.
I'm this scrappy eleven-pound ball of pure joy who can't believe I get to meet you—walks, pets, and endless cuddles sound absolutely unreal!
My file says I've got energy to spare — adventure buddy applications now open.
I'm a Cranston local, just waiting on the right person.
Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.
Who knows — by Labor Day I might be napping on somebody's couch. I'd love it to be near you, one way or another.
Thanks for stopping by and giving me a moment — it honestly made my whole day. — Benji in RI

About Benji in RI
Age: approx 7 years old Weight: 11 lbs My adoption fee is $ 450 which includes transportation charges to the Northeast. Hi! My name is Benji, and I am an 11lb terrier mix but 100% adorable! I am about 6 or 7 years old, but I am full of youthful love and energy. My foster mom says I am a truly awesome dog. I am very curious, playful, and happy. I absolutely love it when my people are home, though I manage just fine when I am home alone for a few hours too. I am always super excited to go on walks, and I have done very well walking on a leash and going potty outside. In fact, I haven't had a single accident since being with my foster mom! I am always happy to say hi to other humans in the wild, and I love to give them a little sniff in exchange for pets! My experience with other dogs has been 50/50. Sometimes I like to say hi, especially with other small dogs, but other times it's best if I keep on walking. I would likely do best as a solo pet, but there's a chance I could be okay with the right dog sibling! I would love a fenced in backyard to play in, but I may be okay in a home without a yard if I get enough time outside during walks! When I am not taking on the town during walks, I like to play with my toys and chill on the couch. I am quite good at hanging out! Thankfully, I have never been destructive with household items because I know that my humans would not appreciate that. I am also very respectful of my human's food and have never tried to steal any, though I am always thrilled when I get a bit of something dog-friendly. At night I sleep in a crate because in my former life I had some trouble with guarding the human bed I slept in. Now that I am adjusted, I do well in my crate filled with blankets and a nice dog bed. Before I go, there's a few other things you should know about me. I am great in the car for both short rides and longer ones, and I have been amazingly patient and calm during bath time. I am still working on commands like sit, stay, and come, but I think I could learn with some training. Thanks for taking the time to read about me! I CAN'T WAIT to find my furever home!
