About This Dog

Benson's ideal home

Benson is a beautiful, very active boy who is looking for an adult only home with no other dogs or cats so that all of the attention can be on him! Although he could potentially live with small furries if kept separate. As Benson can be worried by traffic and gets quite overwhelmed on walks he would thrive in a rural area with access to quiet walks. As Benson is looking for adopters happy to keep him on a lead at all times when out and about and it is advised that he is muzzled he would love access to a private, secure garden so that he can let loose and burn off some of that Collie energy! He has been quite overwhelmed by kennel life and is worried by being left on his own so would benefit from adopter that are home most of the time and can work with him to build up his time left alone slowly. Benson can be wary of new people and so his ideal home would be one where he could be seperated in his own area if he needs to.

Could you be Benson's perfect match?

Benson is our gorgeous 1-year-old Border Collie who is looking for his forever home to help build up his confidence, take things slow and really meet his activity levels! He is a very sweet boy who loves to play with tennis balls and although he has been quite overwhelmed whilst with us he is getting braver and braver each day. If you have the right amount of time, patience and love to put into training this nervous boy and taking care of his mental and physical enrichment then this is the companion for you.
