Benji is a black and  white “Teddy Bear;”  a Shih Tzu and Bichon Frise’ mix. He is 4 years old and weighs 22 lbs.  Benji was given up when his elderly family could no longer care for him. He  loves to go for walks and is good on car rides. He likes squeaky toys and he sleeps in the big bed – on the pillows!!  Benji is housetrained when taken out regularly.  He has an alpha personality and can be a little growly if disturbed. He likes cats and wants to play with them. He loves to cuddle and wants to stay close to his person. He would do best as an only dog with someone who is home most of the time. He would also love another dog to play with,  but only if he can be the boss. Benji needs a home with an experienced, “dog savvy” person who understands his alpha personality. He is fostering in Florida and can travel to his forever home.
