Benny

Say hello to Benny—the low-key goofball you didn’t know you needed!

At 3 years old and 62 pounds, Benny is a handsome German Shepherd mix with a heart as big as his ears (and trust us, those ears are impressive).

Benny is the kind of guy who might start out a little shy—tail tucked, giving you the “who’s this new person?” side-eye—but give him a minute, and soon he’s wagging, grinning, and ready to be your best buddy. He’s gentle with other dogs, enjoys polite playgroups, and would love a home with a chill vibe and maybe a well-matched dog friend (but he’s just as happy to be your one and only).

When he’s not making you laugh with his tennis ball shenanigans (pro tip: bring two balls—he’s still perfecting the whole “drop it” thing), Benny enjoys strolls, sniffing adventures, and showing off his best “sit”… when he feels like it.

Ready to add a little more wag, a little more charm, and a lot more love to your life? Benny’s ready to meet you at Oakland Animal Services!
