My story

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

Introducing Benji 🤎 a tender-hearted boy on a journey to find trust, love, and his forever family!

Benji is a 2-year-old, 45-pound Aussiedoodle with a soft, wavy coat and the kindest eyes you'll ever see. Standing 22 inches tall, he's the perfect size for being both your walking and cuddling companion!

This sensitive boy is making steady strides towards confidence. While he's still cautious and prefers to observe the action from a cozy corner, Benji is starting to wag his tail more often, offer sweet kisses, and even join his foster family for moments of affection. With a little patience, he's sure to become someone's most loyal companion.

Benji gets along beautifully with other dogs and seems to find comfort in their company. He enjoys daily 5km walks, has excellent leash manners, and isn't reactive to other dogs on the trail. He's curious but calm, making him a dream walking partner.

Benji is fully house-trained and thrives on routine. He's learning all about the good life by watching his furry foster siblings and is slowly discovering the joys of toys and playtime. His favorite treats? Freeze-dried liver snacks!

While Benji is gentle, he's a bit shy around people—especially when things get unpredictable. For this reason, a quieter home without young children would suit him best. Sudden movements or loud noises can startle him, but with a soft voice and a calm approach, he'll warm up in time. Becuase of his timidness, we suggest a home with a fully fenced yard is best in order to accommodate Benji's needs and help him feel safe.

Benji has not been tested with cats; however we don't think there will be an issue as he doesn't have a tenancy to chase.

If you're looking for a patient, kind-hearted companion who's ready to come out of his shell, Benji might just be your perfect match. He's eager to keep growing and would love a home with understanding humans and maybe even a canine buddy to show him the ropes.
