Meet ARF stars Benny and Selena

One-and-a-half-year-old Benny is an athletic, exuberant little guy set to charm his way into your heart. When he’s not racing around the yard at lightning-fast speed or playing a spirited game of fetch or tug-of-war, this outgoing superstar enjoys schmoozing and showing off with family and friends. Benny’s also an unapologetic toy fanatic, and he likely won’t say no to a delicious rawhide chew either! Benny would be a great fit for a home that can offer him enough fun and engaging activities to fill the schedule of such an active, in-demand fellow.

The adoption fee for puppies (<6 months) is $300, for adult dogs is $250, for senior dogs (7+ years) is $125, and includes a discount on the first six-week session of a manners class.

Two-year-old Selena is a friendly girl that happily greets new people and says hi with precious meows. Her favorite activity in the world is playtime! It’s so entertaining watching her enthusiastically pounce on mouse toys while having fun and being the center of attention. She is hoping for a home with toys at every corner and daily opportunities for interactive wand play. Although not a cuddler, Selena is sweet and likes a few gentle pets before she walks away to happily hunt her toys.

The adoption fee for kittens (under 6 months) $125 or 2 for $200, for adult cats is $75 or 2 for $100, and for senior cats (7+ years) is $50.

Meet your forever friend at Tony La Russa’s Animal Rescue Foundation, 2890 Mitchell Drive, Walnut Creek, during adoption hours: noon to 6 p.m Wed. and Thurs., noon to 7 p.m. Fri. and noon-6 p.m. Sat. and Sun.
