About Benny
Meet Benny! He’s an 11-12-year-old Beagle mix. Benny is one of the sweetest, cuddliest dogs we’ve ever met. He is always smiling and is nice to every human or dog he meets. He is so easy-going…all he wants to do is love you and keep you company. He’s very intuitive- if you seem sad or stressed, he does the most precious army crawl up to you and snuggles gently in your lap.
Benny has greeted every adult he’s met with a wagging tail and a smile, and he and our other senior dogs get along great and even snuggle with each other. We weren’t surprised to hear that his last foster said he also got along great with cats and older children. Benny is just a big ball of love! He has the biggest heart- and we don’t just mean that figuratively. The vet found that he has an enlarged heart, so he would fit best in a family that likes to take it easy, too. That doesn’t stop him from enjoying the outdoors, though. He loves to go on walks and to play in our yard. I imagine he will love spring and summer so he can bask outside in the sunlight.
Benny prefers not to be alone. He waits patiently in his crate if we leave the house and greets us with sweet yodels, tail-wags, and kisses when we come back. When we’re home, he follows us around the house like a comforting little shadow. Once we settle down to work for a while, though, he will easily sleep in his bed for hours without disruption.
It seems clear to us that Benny spent most of his life in a loving home. He is totally potty trained (hasn’t had any accidents) and is great on a leash (no pulling). We imagine his last owner had a hard time resisting his puppy dog eyes, as he’s a little chunky, but we’re working on improving his diet and exercise so he is in his best health for his forever family.
All it takes is some good ear rubs to get Benny’s undying loyalty. If you’re looking for a low-key, loving companion, apply for Benny, and we promise, you’ll immediately fall in love.
Please note: We do not have a physical facility and the dogs are not located in Hudson, NH. We are a foster-based rescue and dogs can be located anywhere in New England. All adopters must be pre-approved to arrange a meet and greet, and the adopter is expected to travel to the dog's location. We do not transport once the dogs arrive in New England. Applications must be submitted at HarveysHope.org for consideration. We estimate it will be 1-2 weeks before you hear from one of our volunteers. Thank you!
