Bendi is a cute overgrown (perhaps 7-months old) female Boxer mix puppy was found on County Road 9 in Washington County Ohio and brought to the HSOV on the evening of October 6, 2024. She was not wearing a collar, and she was not microchipped.
This young lady has a sleek dark brown/brindle short smooth coat with a small patch of white on her chest, a long tail, and an adorable face with expressive brown eyes, a black button nose, and large floppy ears which she sometimes holds semi-erect.
Thanks to HSOV Kennel Tech Madison Lee for accompanying this little sweetheart for outdoor photos on the afternoon of October 7th and giving Bendi loving attention while she posed for 'glamour shots' and engaged Madison in fun-and-games.
Bendi has a happy super-sweet, friendly personality and is full of playful energy. She weighs 38 lbs but has the appearance of a much smaller dog when you see her in person.
In compliance with the Ohio Revised Code, Bendi will be held for three days so that her family will have an opportunity to reclaim her with proof of ownership.
Bendi went home with a foster family on January 5, 2025 who plans to adopt her after she is spayed.
Update: Bendi came back to HSOV on January 7, 2025 since she was exhibiting a little too much 'puppy behavior' (chewing, etc).
