Benji was only 7 when he first came to us, he is now 9 and is looking at spending his third Christmas in kennels. He does not deserve to spend the rest of his days in kennels, overlooked, unwanted and unloved. Humans have failed Benji, he deserves better now........
Benji has been rescued from an uncertain future as a street dog and narrowly escaped euthanasia, having gone through all that he really deserves a better life.
When he first came into rescue he hadn't been used to a lead and would spin round, making you dizzy. With the patience of kennel staff and volunteers he has come a long way. He can still jump at sudden unfamiliar noises whilst out, but this will improve with time and patience.
Benji may be 9 years old, but he is agile and inquisitive. Because of his past experiences with humans which haven't always been positive, Benji does take a little time to get to know you. He adores the kennel staff who have gained his trust by showing him love and kindness, something he hasn't had much of in his life until now. He is also taken on walks by one of our vollies and he is doing very well and now responds well on the lead.
Because we don't know Benji's background, we will only consider homes where any children are dog savvy. He has been used to having to look after himself and going short of food, so he may be 'food protective' at first in his new home. Help and advice will be given to any new owners on how to manage this.
Can you give Benji the home and love he so deserves??
