Ben is an eighteen-month-old hound mix who weighs 45 pounds.
This handsome boy is a smart, friendly young dog who is engaged and eager to please. Hy already know how to sit on command and is food motivated. He is athletic and can likely best be described as medium energy. He loves attention and is very affectionate with people. Ben is a little shy upon first meeting, which dissipates quickly. He still has a good amount of puppy energy and will need an adopter committed to continuing his training and socialization. He will need daily long walk or hikes to keep him happy.
Ben walks well on a lead but needs some additional work on his leash manners. He likes to check out interesting smells and would do best with a strong owner who can work with him on leash skills, as he sometimes gets excited and pulls a tad hard.
