Jared told Jessica they could adopt one in November, but she decided to start searching online for various shelters and their dogs available for adoption.

Benji was rescued while wandering the streets of Los Angeles, he lost some of his fur due to a flea allergy. Many people probably wouldn’t adopt a dog under these conditions, but Jessica was the exception.

Jessica told The Dodo:

He was at the shelter for 10 days and was not having a good time. He growled and kicked people as he passed. I had never seen a sadder dog and I knew I couldn’t leave him there.

Jessica and her boyfriend traveled from Sacramento to Los Angeles for six hours to meet Benji, and when they finally arrived at the shelter, they showed great interest in him.

The shelter also told us he was unfriendly and refused to take us to a quiet holding area to meet him because ‘he wouldn’t be a dog coming up to us to be friendly.’ he had a high chance of being euthanized and we didn’t want him to die.

Yet, regardless of Benji’s behavior, the couple decided to bring him home. The dog was very confused about his new parents on the way back to Sacramento.

He tried to stay away for a while, but after a few days Benji started to feel safe, showing his true sweet and playful personality.

He loves to come and lick our faces and play with his toys. It’s so silly now! He has crazy behaviors after taking a bath. He also starts barking as soon as we get to the car as if to say: “We have to move!” Let’s go!’

Benji spent three weeks with his new family and experienced an incredible transformation, he is overcoming his sad past and now, without a doubt, he hopes to continue with a very happy life, surrounded by love and all thanks to this couple who have decided to take risks for him.
