My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

THIS POST WILL BE REMOVED WHEN THE DOG IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE. INQUIRIES ABOUT THE ADOPTION STATUS WILL NOT BE RETURNED.

Benji came to rescue when his owner became ill and was unable to care for him. He has been a beloved companion and family member who was given the best care and was very loved.

At 13, Benji has some age-related ailments such as arthritis but enjoys a leisurely stroll daily and greets everyone he meets with a wagging tail. He's quite low-key and enjoys several naps during the day. With true "Westie-tude", Benji still enjoys chasing the random bird or squirrel and sometimes asks to go outside at night for rabbit patrol of the yard. Toys really do not interest him at all.

So, if you are looking for a lovely chap to share your retirement with, Benji is your guy! He really demands nothing but your time and love and will repay you with devotion and tail wags.

Due to Benji's age, we request an adult-only home with a fenced yard.

The suggested adoption donation for Benji is a minimum of $350 and goes toward the high cost of veterinary care for our rescue dogs.Wag N Train Terrier Rescue adopts to an extended geographical area as long as we can locate a local volunteer to perform the required home visit. Approved adopters are required to travel to Omaha, NE to pick up their newly adopted dog. We do not arrange transport, or fly our rescue dogs without a "pet nanny". All of our dogs that come from a commercial breeding facility require a securely fenced yard AND a resident companion dog, unless the dog's bio states otherwise. Please note, invisible or underground fencing is not considered secure or appropriate containment. Adoption applications can be found at www.wagntrainterrierrescue.com/adoption-information
