Plenty of Pets
Ben is a one and a half-year-old mixed breed who is waiting for a family to join.
He loves to play and gets along well with other dogs. He’d do best in a home where children aren’t too small, because he might knock them down with his energetic play.
For more information on Ben, visit the Nova Scotia Golden Retriever Rescue website or Facebook page or email [email protected]
