My story

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org Benny “You are the bridge between what was and what will be... my pathway to a new life.” Looking for your next FBF (furry best friend)? Well hey there, fabulous folks – that would be me, Benny! I’m here on the hunt for something I’ve never had before… a family to call my very own. And since you’re reading this, I’m hoping that someone might just be you. My journey didn’t start out easy. My mom, siblings, and I were dumped in a rural area along a busy highway. Terrified, we found shelter in an abandoned house and tried to survive the best we could. Thankfully, some kind neighbors noticed us and began bringing food and water. They contacted this amazing rescue, and now I finally have a second chance at the life I deserve. I’m about 8 months old and, despite my rocky beginning, I have a very sweet and gentle nature. I’m still learning that not all people are scary—that pets, kind words, and cuddles can be really nice. With patience, love, and a steady supply of treats, I’ll reward you with tail wags, soft kisses, and a heart full of loyalty. I love to run and play with toys and my siblings. Because I’ve always been part of a pack, I’d do best in a home with another playful dog who can help guide me and give me confidence in new situations. I get along well with other foster pups here—from big dogs to small. Although I haven’t met any of those mysterious creatures called cats, at my age, with proper introductions, I should do just fine! My mom’s DNA came back as Aussie/Border Collie/Great Pyrenees mix, and Dad… well, he was a charming traveling salespup making the rounds. I’ll likely grow to be around 50-60 lbs—a great size for all sorts of adventures. - Sweet, shy, and learning to trust - Loves other dogs and needs a canine companion - Smart, playful, and eager to love - Will thrive in a patient, loving home - A true rescue gem waiting for her happy ending If you’re looking for a gentle soul to grow with—someone who will quietly become your most loyal companion—please stop scrolling and consider giving me a chance. Apply today at haydudeequine.org – I’ll be waiting with hope in my heart and love to give.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Benny, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
