About Benji
I am a little nervous and can be wary of new people but once I do know you, I am very friendly and affectionate.
I can pull and be reactive when I see other dogs. I'm a nervous boy you see and I am struggling in kennels which is making me very stressed when I go outside.
A quieter home with lots of time spent feeling safe and secure with my new owner or family. I'm not happy in kennels, I would be more confident in a home environment.
An experienced owner who can help me be a little bit braver, take things slowly, walk in quieter areas so I can learn that walks are fun and not scary.
I love playing with toys and being brushed.
Benji is a handsome and energetic boy who is always ready for fun! Whether he’s dashing around the paddock, spinning in excitement, or zooming in joyful sprints, his playful spirit is truly contagious. He absolutely adores cuddles and will happily lean in for a good back scratch. Benji is an affectionate dog who will brighten your days with his playful antics and warm snuggles.
