Benjamin button is the perfect little sidekick with just the right mix of independence and affection.
Benjamin button is a Pomeranian mix who has already mastered so many of the important things in life—he’s housebroken, walks beautifully on a leash, and has great manners in the home. He’s a smart boy who understands a variety of commands like “come,” “stay,” “outside,” “go potty,” “leave it,” and even “get back” when the door opens. He’s eager to please (especially if treats are involved!) and is very food motivated, which makes continued training a breeze.
Benjamin button is wonderfully well-rounded when it comes to his social life. He gets along great with other dogs, prefers friends his own size, and has done well with cats too. He’s also been around babies and toddlers and handles it all like a champ. While he enjoys the company of other dogs and is learning to join in on zoomies and playtime, he doesn’t require a canine companion—as long as his people are home most of the time, he’ll be perfectly content soaking up their attention.
This little guy has a sweet and slightly independent personality. He loves his humans and will happily spend time with you, but he’s not overly needy—he’s the kind of dog who can entertain himself and then come in for love when he’s ready. He absolutely adores squeaky toys and will proudly toss them around, giving them a good shake during playtime.
At night, he does well not being in a crate and instead is kept in a separate room and settles in nicely. He can be a bit vocal at first when kenneled, but he does calm down after a short time. He’s also great about letting you know when he needs to go outside, making him an easy and reliable companion in the home.
Benjamin button is truly a good boy in all the best ways—smart, adaptable, loving, and just the right amount of fun. He’s the kind of dog who will fit right into your life, bringing loyalty, personality, and just enough playful charm to make every day a little brighter
Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter’s expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home.
