Hi everyone, my name is Benny Boy. I am a delightful and heavenly little man who is looking for someone to give me my place in the world. Here is a little info about me:
Breed: Corgi mix
Age: 2 yrs
Gender: male
Weight: 40 pounds
Height: 20 inches high
Highlight(s): playful, clever, super sweet and loving
I was found as a stray when I was only a month old. My rescuer in Israel heard a puppy crying and discovered me hiding under a tree. I was so alone and scared and very hungry. It is not known what happened to my mother and siblings but it is likely I was the only survivor. I was taken to a shelter where I stayed for the next year and a half until I was able to come to Canada.
I am currently living in a foster home with six other dogs and I get along great with all of them. I would love to share my new home with another dog or two but am also happy to be the only dog. I love going for walks and playing with my people. But I am also very good at chilling out at home. If you decide to meet me (and you would be very smart to do so) I will impress you with how cute and sweet I am. I can be a bit slow to warm up to some people but it's always easy when I am approached by someone with a calm, gentle manner.
One of my favourite things is to eat. This makes me easy to train as I will do anything for a liver treat. In fact my current foster has taught me not to bark when I am startled or hear unusual noises. I have never shown any protection around food or toys. At home, I am the sweetest, snuggliest boy. I love to curl up next to my humans, to nap and get lots of pets and belly rubs. I like to chew but don't worry, I know which toys are mine and only chew them. I'm also a good guard dog and will alert you when someone is outside. It is no problem for me to stay home alone for a few hours as I am quiet and have no separation anxiety. A home with a fenced yard will be best for me as I have a bit of bladder control problem which is being treated with medication.
Energy Level: moderate
I get along with:
Dogs: yes!
Cats: unknown
Kids: unknown
Training: a bit of leash training
Leash skills: some
House trained: Not yet. Please be prepared to help me learn!
I am neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. My adoption fee is by donation.
