Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi People,
My name is Benji and I’m kind of famous. I’m not bragging (‘cause that’s not the kind of guy I am) but you may have seen me on Facebook. You see my family no longer had time for me so they dropped me off at a shelter in LA. Well, believe you me, that was no place for a gentle, mellow and loving little guy like me. And a lot of special angels decided that was definitely the case.
So I said a lot of prayers and waited patiently. And the best thing happened. I was rescued! The good vets checked me out thoroughly (oh boy did they!) and declared me fit. They said I’m a perfect 10 (well actually my weight is 16 pounds and I’m about 11 years young.) And my Auntie Angels agree: a perfect 10.
I have a great foster Mom who says I’m quiet, calm, housebroken, friendly and respectful of other dogs. Mom says I’m very lovable and will put my head under her hand so you can pet and scratch me. (Ah, I get so happy just thinking about it.) She says I’m well mannered, LOVE my walks (and can go for quite a distance!), like my rides and the car and that I don’t react when someone comes to the door (now that’s something I can teach other furkids!) Mom also says that I have the cutest snore when I’m sleeping. It’s no surprise that I’m great with children as well as adults, come when I’m called, enjoy the company of other dogs and am very well trained (and it has only been a few days too!)
Most of all I’m a mellow, appreciative and loving little guy with the sweetest ways. There is no doubt that I will make the perfect addition to any home or family.
If I sound like your kind of guy, please know that I’m applying for the job. In the meantime, I’ll continue being the loving, charming guy that I am.
Gentle wags and kisses,
Blissful and Beyond Compare Benji
