BENGIE is a very loving, easy going and affectionate boy to people he is comfortable with. He takes a some time to gain trust & warm up to strangers, but when he does, he is a fantastic companion. Whether it’s going for walks, lounging outside, or going for long car rides, he’s content as long as he’s with his people. He loves playing with his toys and going for long walks, his leash manors are excellent (he gets extremely excited when seeing squirrels). He’s highly food motivated and quite easy to train. He is crate trained and house trained. He is high energy in new situations; once decompression is established he is a more medium energy level dog. Bengie does jump up and can get upset when his personal space is invaded, therefore, would not be suitable in a household with children.
