BENJI Benji is a purebred male Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier. His DOB is 6/04 Benji was surrendered to a shelter by an older couple who could no longer take care of him. They had had him since he was a puppy, however, the man was confined to a wheelchair and the lady is 86 years old and could no longer walk Benji or take adequate care of him. We were contacted by the shelter to take him into rescue. From his new foster home: Overall he appears to be in fantastic shape/health. (as far as we can tell). We gave him a bath, he did really well! Let us put him in the tub and even blow dry him for the most part. Walks extremely well on a leash and knows at least the command of sit. Haven't got to work w/ him on any others yet. He seems he will be very motivated for a treat. He was pretty good when we introduced him to our Wheaten. We were told at the shelter he was dropped off b/c he was food aggressive toward other pets and people when he was eating. We fed him today twice and he seemed to eat fine. We didn't test the aggression w/ our Wheaten or ourselves. He's very playful, loves to just hang out by himself or give kisses and get some love. He's fairly easy going so far! Benji would do best in a home where he is the only pet or with a very laid back female. Due to his age, Benji's adoption fee is only $150! Benji is neutered and up to date on shots. |
