NYC animal shelter, Moxy hotel, put on adorable dog adoption event
Animal Haven and Moxy East Village celebrated National Dog Day with adoptable puppies and Hebrew National hot dogs.
Meet Benson, a three-year-old pup from Houston who is looking for a forever home.
Benson, thought to be a mix of a retriever and a Catahoula, is one of the many dogs up for adoption right now at Best Friends in Houston.
The adorable dog came to the program through a shelter in Houston called Harris County Pets, one of the animal intake shelters in the area.

Benson had heartworm while at the shelter. And with no appropriate resources to help him with his fight, Benson came to Best Friends.
Benson was quickly matched with a foster home where he adjusted quite well.
"Benson is the ultimate loyal companion. He loves to receive attention as much as he loves to give it in the form of nuzzling and cuddling," the staff at Best Friends told Fox News Digital.
