Benny (Barry's brother, also available for adoption) is a very sweet adorable boy who is estimated to have been born around 01/2013 and weighs a nice size of approximately 32 lbs. We believe he is an Australian shepherd/Border Collie mix and is full of love. When we first rescued him it appeared he had never been in a home environment and was very scared and cautious at first. He is adapting well and learning house rules. He is a little timid of new things, but with love and encouragement, he adjusts accordingly with some time. He has some puppy-like behaviors (chewing) since no one took the time to train him. He is great with kids and is learning how to play ball and Frisbee and he loves it. He has had no prior training, but he is a very quick learner and has already learned how to sit and walk on a leash. He is working on crate training and housetraining and is almost there! He will do best in a home where he gets training, daily exercise, interaction, and lots of love, of course!
