Description

🎂 D.o.B.: 15/05/2024 🐶 Male | Small-sized | Approximately 8.3 kg 🧬 Scruffy Terrier-type mixed breed — his exact ancestry is unknown. 💉 Fully vaccinated | ✂️ Neutered | 📍 Microchipped 🤗 Friendly with people, dogs and cats Benji has been through terrible suffering, yet he remains a cheerful, affectionate little boy with so much love to give. Now he needs a family who will treasure him and understand that his remarkable recovery comes with some ongoing care needs. 🏡❤️ 💔 HIS STORY 💔 We were told that Benji had been thrown from a car and then run over by another vehicle. A fellow rescuer brought him to us in July, and his condition was heartbreaking. He was in pain, starving, covered in insects and suffering from skin problems. Worst of all, he was barely using his back legs. He moved mainly on his front legs, hardly letting his hind feet touch the ground. Bless him — watching him struggle was devastating. 😢 We took Benji to specialist vets several times, seeking further opinions and arranging X-rays and a CT scan. The specialists agreed that surgery was not an option and that his injuries should be managed without an operation. We gave him prescribed pain relief, skin treatment, good food and time to recover. His movement was carefully restricted, preventing jumping and stair climbing while his body healed. 🩺❤️‍🩹 Gradually, our brave little boy began using his back legs again. Today, Benji walks on all four paws, enjoys running around the garden and loves playing with his doggy friends! 🐾🌿 ❤️ A LOVING, CLEVER LITTLE COMPANION ❤️ Benji is full of life and LOVE! 🥰 He enjoys affection and being close to his people. As his photos show, he is very happy to be held and cuddled, soaking up the kindness and security he should always have known. 🤗💞 He is also a smart boy who understands what he should and should not do. He responds well to guidance and behaves very well with people, other dogs and cats. He enjoys playing with other dogs, although we supervise his activities and try to stop him getting carried away. His enthusiasm sometimes exceeds what his body can comfortably manage! 💛 A friendly resident dog could be a lovely companion, provided their play is gentle and carefully managed. A home with cats may also be considered, with gradual introductions as always. 🐶🐈 🩺 IMPORTANT: HIS ONGOING CARE NEEDS 🩺 Benji has recovered wonderfully, but his previous injuries must be taken seriously. After too much exertion, he sometimes develops a slight limp. We continue to limit jumping, and his adopting family must be willing to manage his activity and follow veterinary guidance. He needs a home where: 🐾 Exercise and play can be adapted to his comfort and abilities. 🐾 Jumping on and off furniture can be prevented. 🐾 Stairs can be avoided or access carefully managed. 🐾 Changes in his movement or comfort will be noticed and discussed with a vet. 🐾 Any recommended veterinary reviews or treatment will be continued. His adopters must understand the possibility of future veterinary needs and associated costs. We will discuss his history openly and share the veterinary information we hold before adoption. 📋❤️ Benji is a happy, playful boy who enjoys life. He simply needs thoughtful people who will protect his progress and give him the extra care he deserves. 🌼 🏡 HIS IDEAL HOME 🏡 🌳 A secure, private garden for supervised play, sniffing and pottering. 🏠 Easy access to the garden and preferably accommodation mainly on one level, with minimal unavoidable steps. ❤️ Loving, patient people who want a close family companion and can provide company, routine and gentle guidance. 🩺 A family committed to understanding his medical history and following veterinary advice. 🐕 Any resident dog should be friendly and suitable for gentle, supervised play. 👧 Children aged 10 or over, who understand careful handling and respect his need for rest and space. Benji needs a warm bed, a safe home and people who will love him through every stage of his life. 🛏️💞 🤝 OUR PROMISE & YOUR COMMITMENT 🤝 Friends InDeed provides rescue back-up for life, together with advice and support after adoption. Our commitment to Benji does not end when he joins his family. ❤️ In return, we ask for a lifelong commitment to his wellbeing: kindness, patience, appropriate veterinary care and a willingness to seek support when needed. If your circumstances change, you must contact us so that we can help arrange a safe solution. Benji must never be passed on privately. 🐾🤝 📋 ADOPTION INFORMATION 📋 🏡 A home-check is required, often completed online. ❤️ Adoption is as a family companion only. 💬 We will discuss your lifestyle, home, existing pets and Benji’s particular needs to help establish the right match. 🤗 Ongoing post-adoption support is available. 📣 Over 500 references are available from our adoptive families. 🩺 Health paperwork and screening information, including Brucella canis and 4Dx testing, will be discussed and confirmed during the adoption process. 🚐 TRANSPORT 🚐 Transport can usually be arranged across England and Wales fortnightly, and to Scotland approximately monthly, subject to confirmation and suitable arrangements for Benji’s comfort. 📞 CONTACT FRIENDS InDEED 📞 Please get in touch to tell us about the home you could offer this lovely boy. Phone or WhatsApp is usually the fastest way to reach us. 💬🐾 💛 From barely touching the ground with his back feet to happily exploring on all four paws, Benji has come such a long way. Could you give this affectionate little survivor the loving home — and thoughtful care — he has been waiting for? 🏡❤️🐾
