It's only been a day, but so far Lenny has no fear of men. My husband is 6'5" and typically wears a hat or hoodie. These are all things that often spook more timid dogs. Lenny doesn't care. He only cares if a) you will pet him, and b) if you have a snack.
Jimmy does a great turtle-stuck-on-his-back impression. 🐢
The Shooooessssss
10 minutes later... this is not great.
She hasn't been destructive with shoes, but she loves to carry them from room to room.. to.. outside..
Beni figured out the doggy door, this is great!
Guess who's back!
Benelli's adopters thought she was the bees knees and quickly fell for her, but to everyone's surprise, Beni sheds a fair amount. She was so malnourished when she arrived at our house, she never really had a full enough coat for us to notice. Turns out the fuzz flies when her and her brother were wrestling. (She LOVES to wrestle.) Further surprise, one of her adopters is allergic to that fuzz despite being around other breeds without issue. Just one of those things you don't know, until you know. In the meantime, our little squatter is back until she finds her family!
Here's a note from her original adopters:
While we only had a few days with Beni, she already stole our hearts. She was great with both of our other dogs and quickly became play buddies with our one-year old labradoodle. They played hard, but Beni took corrections from Remy well and adapted her behavior. She would also communicate what she wanted in play, so she seems to have confidence without it being dominant. She listened to us (better than Remy does lol) and seemed eager to please us. She does counter surf, but when we told her down, she got down and walked away. Granted, 10 minutes later she would be back, but again, when we told her down, she left it alone. It seems as though it would be easy to train her not to do this, especially once she realizes she will be getting plenty of food on a regular basis.
She is very loving and did not hold back on the snuggles. The first night we kept her in the crate in our room and she did not complain. The second night, after the morning feeding, she got into bed with us and the other two dogs and she fit right in. When Beni and Remy started playing in the bed, a quick “no” was all Beni needed to stop. She can also chill as easily as she can play. When Remy didn’t feel like playing, Beni had no problem with that and she just laid down also and took a nap right alongside Remy.
She would occasionally bark at the neighbors, but again,
