First off, thanks for Sandra Lynn for sponsoring Ben! We appreciate all you do for RAGOM!
There's a lot of news since our last updates about Ben. He got lots of attention at the Petsmart event last weekend. He loved every bit of it. He even did his "Hey look at me sit on my hind legs and balance!" routine. I'm still trying to get a photo of that trick. He's a big boy, its funny how he can balance. I think people are surprised at what a handsome boy Ben is. He has a cute face too. He met a couple of kids at the event and seemed to enjoy their attention.
Ben is very sweet and follows us mostly everywhere. He'll put his paw on your lap to let you know he wants to be petted. He loves attention! His back paw is almost fully healed and he's walking and running like any playful dog. Ben was fixed last week, so lately he's been a resting quite a bit. He is heartworm negative and fecal negative. He is now microchipped. He responds to his name well and now is responding to treats. He even has "sit" down! Other things we've noticed about Ben is he watches TV and he likes to de-fuzz tennis balls, and play with stuffed animals.
I promise, if you meet Ben, you'll fall in love with him. It will be hard for us to let this guy go!
