My personality

Why I need a new home

Human health issues (e.g. allergies, sickness)

My story

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

Benji is a sweet boy that loves lots of attention. Benji likes to play fetch and sit on your lap. Benji likes the groomers and getting hair cuts. He is potty trained and kennel trained.
I have 2 teenagers Benji does great with my children. He has not been around younger children and I would recommend older kids and adults. I have another dog, a boxer and Benji gets a little bosy. good with her but i would recommend him being the only pet.
Benji does have some challenges, he does not like people around his food, he growls but never snapped at me or my family, I feel he is just protecting

Discloser, I had Benji since he was 9 months, I rescued him from a family that bought him for their daughter and was not treated right.. if you notice one of his ears is slanted sideways I was told by the vet it is Cartlidge damage, but it does not affect his hearing.Reason for me needing a new home for him is, I suffered from allergies and found out from my allergist I am allergic to my fur babies.
