Ben was one of 27 dogs seized in a horrendous hoarding situation in the US. This poor boy lived his entire year and a half life in a crate with no exposure to the outside world. A volunteer transported him to the boarder where we met him for the first time.\u00a0 Ben\u00a0stayed curled up in the back of his kennel, smelling foul, covered in his own waste. Thankfully our benevolent groomer squeezed him in right away.\u00a0 His filthy matted coat was shaved away\u2026along with his pitiful past.\u00a0 Ben was immediately welcome by one of our amazing previous adopters. Sadly they recently lost their big beautiful beloved boy to bloat. Their hearts were crushed, their home seemed empty and they both felt lost.\u00a0 They understood what broken felt like, so when they saw the defeat in Ben\u2019s eyes, they knew he needed them as much as they need him.\u00a0 Together they will mend, grow and bond. Ben has a safe happy and patient place to learn how to be a dog\u2026. His family have the most irresistible \u00a0sweetest boy possible.\u00a0 His teddy Bear looks have earned him a new name, Yogie Bear.\u00a0 Enjoy your new life little one\u2026a Happy Ending for all, congratulations. \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
