Benny / Barom has been through so much in his young life. He was abandoned in a crate at the shelter, badly burned, with a note that said the owner could no longer care for him. He went to foster immediately where he began his recovery. After a short stint with an adopter, Benny / Barom was brought to Contra Costa Animal Services by the police department. The owner chose not to redeem him. Benny / Barom was overjoyed to be reunited with his original foster and his foster siblings. Now back in foster, he is quickly re-acclimating to life in a home. He is potty trained and sleeps through the night in a crate on his own. He loves playing with his foster siblings and follows their cues to know when play time ends and cuddle time begins. This 7 month old and 36lb chonky hippo is enthusiastically friendly with people and loves booty scritches and belly rubs. Like all young dogs, Benny / Barom will thrive with rewards based training and socialization. He shows no physical or emotional signs of his hard past and lives life with optimism and joy.
