Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Helllllloooo Pacific Northwest Humans! Im Benji! People keep saying there was a famous (well more famous than me I guess) dog that also had my name…but my ears are better!
So here’s my story…Ive bounced around a bit. Sadly I haven’t been paired with the right humans. They say good things come to those who wait…but I really want to find my person! Im currently living with this great trainer…I don’t know her name because I don’t speak English (I just know how to write it)…but she is really good with me. I came up here from Texas and my first foster wasn’t quite the right fit because she lived in an apartment and I need more space. So then I went to another foster, but I didn’t get the attention I needed, so I started to regress on my training and get really nervous around new people and situations. Fast forward to today…and this is what I am looking for to find my forever:
I am a dog that LOVES to please my human. This means that I will be 100% loyal to you and love you like no other, you just need to give me a little time.
I am not reactive to dogs on a leash
I am currently housed with multiple other dogs and do fine…and can be somewhat independent.
I can get scared when anyone (people or dogs) come into my personal space and try to greet me…most of us dogs do, actually. You see its just not normal in canine behavior…but in human behavior its expected…so Im working on trying to fit into your world. J
I need a human that understands this and will work on properly introducing me over time, or just advocate that I don’t need to be pet all the time.
I don’t like events…there are too many unknowns for me. Though I can be ok on the perimeter of them, I'd rather just stay home…preferably with you!
I would love more than anything to go hiking, running, or biking with you. Anything that can let us bond, I am all in for! Then after were done exercising you can drop me off at home to take a nap and you can go enjoy some beers on the restaurant patio somewhere!
I really, really, really want to find my person. I just have an unquenchable desire to bond and love on them…and hopefully they will do the same for me!
Will you be my hero?
PS - i'm currently being fostered in Bend, Oregon
