25-054 Benjamin's Story

Benjamin AKA: Big Ben, Benny, Big Boi Benny, Benny “the jet” Rodriquez, Benny from the block Benjamin is a big handsome bull terrier with the most wonderful disposition. Benny loves attention from people and will worm his way into your lap to get pets and head scratches wherever you may be sitting. When he is excited, he can turn into a fur covered bowling ball so be weary of these bursts of excitement. Benny from our knowledge was kept in a crate most of his life so he has a real zest for exploring, meeting new people. Although Benny loves a good adventure, he also loves his couch time and has to be right beside, touching or on top of those he loves. Benny is currently working on his leash skills and manners within the house like not jumping up or onto things. Benjamin is showing a lot of success with the “leave it” command. Benny like most terriers, has a strong prey drive so living with small animals and cats may not be in his or the other animals' best interest. Benny loves a good treat but is more toy motivated (anything that squeaks!). He does best being on a routine schedule to avoid accidents in the house as he does not always alert when he needs to go potty. Benjamin is crate trained and does well in the crate when leaving the house. If you are looking for a big snuggly friend to play during the day and lounge by night Benny is the right guy for you!

Bull Terrier Rescue Mission, Inc.'s Adoption Policy

Once we receive the application, our rescue committee will review it, and reach out via Social Media, E-Mail, Telephone or Text to set up a phone interview. The interview can take as little as 20 minutes but last as long as 45 or longer. This interview is the perfect time for applicants to ask any questions. Some questions to consider, and topics to be covered during the call include: * the breed in general * an individual in our care up for adoption * the process moving forward * why we do things the way we do them * specific follow up questions based on the application * establishment of rapport to help BTRM find the best possible match At some point the coordinators at Bull Terrier Rescue Mission will follow up by contacting any references listed on the application. After this and the interview; if both parties are in agreement, we will set up a home evaluation with a trusted volunteer. The interviewer will coordinate with the applicant and the volunteer to schedule a date and time that would be best for the home visit. It’s important that if the applicants have a spouse or partner and any children or other animals, that most if not all of them be present for the Home Check. Once a dog and an applicant are matched, there will be paperwork. Fosters will fill out a Foster Release Agreement, that will outline everything that’s expected from them as well as everything that will be provided to them, from BTRM. There is no charge to place a dog in foster care. We only ask that the dog is given the appropriate time to be brought back to health and that his behaviors are properly evaluated before we begin to look for their forever home. During this period and until the dog is adopted, BTRM will be responsible for all medical expenses, and training if need be. People looking to adopt a bull terrier, are classified as “foster to adopt”. This means that they have to fill out the Foster Release Agreement & the Adoption Agreement, as well as the $450.00 Adoption Donation in advance. If in 30 days the family and the dog agree that they love each other and want to stay with each other forever, the Adoption Agreement is signed and returned to the applicant and the match is made official and the dog considered Adopted. During this 30 day “Foster Period” all the rules and parameters of the Foster Agreement are in effect. For example, medical issues that have yet to be cleared are the responsibility of the BTRM. If the 30 days pass, and the dog and family do not consider themselves a match, the Foster to Adopt shifts to a Foster placement. The day the dog being fostered begins their transport to their new home, the $450.00 adoption donation is returned.
