Benson is a good boy, diva, snuggle-bug, velcro dog, sleepy guy, style icon, forever-puppy, model, and most importantly everyone’s bestie.
Thank you for supporting Benson this year's competition. Your participation allows us to aid PAWS in their mission to help cats, dogs, and wild animals thrive in happy, healthy homes or in their natural habitats.
What is America's Favorite Pet?
Learn MoreBenson’s favorite toy is a bunny stuffed animal that he’s had since he was a puppy, it gives off the vibe of a stuffed animal you’d get for a human baby when attending a baby shower.
My favorite thing about Benson is his desire to be loved by people. He may be 40 lbs but he really just wants to be held and cuddle with whoever will spend time with him. He’s so gentile about his cuddles and will be the big spoon if it means he gets to spend time with the people he loves.
Benson really is a good boy and everyone who meets him loves him. He may not be brave enough at 4 years old to jump into a car on his own, but he shows everyone love and support is they sit on a couch or the floor with him (or pick him up).
