Beautiful Benny – a sweet and gentle snuggle-bug….

Benny is a beautiful boy with a gentle and sweet nature. He is very handsome with a soft brindle coat made for cuddles! The photos just don’t do him justice.

He is good with dogs, people, and cats. He is a real snuggle bug with such a lovely personality. He’s not aggressive at all and does not resource guard his food, people or toys

His foster carer describes him as “gentle, affectionate and such a good boy. He’s just pretty great.”

He currently lives with a Staffy buddy, two cats, and school aged children and goes to work with his foster mum and is so well behaved.

He is crate trained, toilet trained and sleeps through the night. He is great with the kids he lives with and LOVES the beach. He is good in the car and knows sit.

He is very food motivated and isn’t a fussy eater, so can be trained further to suit your household as he is still young.  

He can be a bit timid but has gotten better is foster care and is trying so hard to be brave while out and about. However, he can still get a bit nervous and shy.

His ideal home would be with an older dog to show him the ropes and how to interact with the world. He is quite flexible and can live with children (school aged preferably, as he can be a bit bouncy) and other animals such as cats. As long as he will be part of your family and gently exposed to the world around him, he will give so much back in love and affection. He is a truly wonderful young boy.

Thank you to Liv Morison of Liv Morison photography for the fantastic photos of Benny.
