This is Benson, a very handsome one year old Shepherd Mix, and our newest resident at the Mikey & Me Kennel in Chelsea.  Benson was a stray found in the Detroit area and he ended up at a shelter where he was safe, but he was very scared. The shelter staff did their best to find his owner and they waited the required amount of time hoping they might come forward. 

Benson is a very nice dog. He loves getting attention and interacting with people, including kids. He weighs 56 pounds and he has a beautiful black coat with a reddish hue that can be seen in the first photo. He has already been neutered and he is up to date on shots. Benson had a negative heart worm test on 4/17. It appears he wants to play with other dogs because he gets pretty excited when they walk by his kennel. We will do our best to find him a playmate for the outdoor play area once he is settled in.   Better pictures coming soon. 

Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue microchips all dogs and cats before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the shoulder blades and are another form of identification should the animal get lost. The microchips are registered to  Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue. The adopter's information is added once the adoption is complete. The adopter is responsible for a $19.99/Year registration fee or a $69.00/Lifetime registration fee to change information.  Dogs and Cats still need to have collar with tags should they get lost.
