About This Dog

Benji's ideal home

Benji is a sweet 1 year old Crossbreed. As a young lad he is full of energy and loves to be on the go! He's a friendly boy, but can get himself a little overwhelmed at times, especially in new situations. For this reason we feel he'd suit a quiet but active home where he can gradually find his paws with upper secondary aged children. Benji can find new situations such as vet visits or meeting new people a little scary, but with some reassurance and time he soon settles in and he's back to his excitable self we know and love! He will need to be the only pet in his new home, but could have polite walking friends out and about.

Could you be Benji's perfect match?

Benji is currently living off site in a foster home, where he is housetrained. He hasn't been used to being left for long periods so this will need gradually building up as he settles into his new home. Benji loves his food and this is a great way to both build a relationship and help teach him new things. He loves being out enjoying his walkies, but hasn't mastered his loose-lead walking just yet, so some tasty treats and positive reinforcement will really help him make lots of progress!
