My story

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


I got Benji from a Breeder in Indiana through the Puppy Spot at 7 weeks old. He is now 18 months old.

Benji does have separation anxiety, but otherwise is a great little guy.

I have been assigned back to work in the office and he is not doing well with this transition.

Benji needs a home with other dogs or cats. He tolerates kids, but prefers adults. He grew up with my 4 grandkids. A home with another dog would be the best environment for him.

He is potty pad trained and does not do well with a crate. He likes going for car rides, but he is an anxious rider.

He loves walks and would be best with a yard. He was used to daily walks. Is groomer and boarding friendly.

Some more about his anxiety, he will yelp, cry and sometimes scratches at the door, if left alone. He is not destructive to furniture and will calm down after a few minutes.

He has a really short hair cut now, but his hair is usually longer.
