Ben's Story

Thank you for attending my BEN-talk. I’m here to be adorable! My name is Ben, and I’m a handsome young two-year-old weighing 12 pounds. I’m blonde, love the sun, fun, and you!<br/><br/>People have told me I’m a stage 5 clinger and a personal stalker, but they don’t realize it’s a good thing. You’ll never be lonely with me around! I’ll sit next to you or on your lap while we binge-watch Netflix and relax. I sleep cuddled up next to you at night. If there’s an intruder, I’ll bark to protect you. And, I’m an excellent co-pilot with a great sense of music and navigational skills.<br/><br/>I even come with my own reviews! <br/>“Ben is a good dog in every way!”-Barbara Woof-Woof <br/>“Who’s a good boy? It’s 100% Ben!” -Jimmy Ruff-Ruff<br/><br/>My stats:<br/>Walkies: I walk very well on a leash and enjoy nice jaunt around the block. Remember I have little legs! So I’m not built for hikes. <br/>Outside: I am not 100% sure of the dog door but do go outside to use the bathroom. I can have accidents at first and do not mind using a belly band until we get used to each other. <br/>Dogs: I am very friendly and playful once I get to know them. I will cling to my person until I get comfy enough to play. I would be ok with a brother or sister around to show me the ropes. <br/>Noise: I’m not a huge barker but will tell you if there is a stranger at the door or window. <br/>Favorite Food: I will do any for a piece of chicken!!!!!!!<br/>Alone time: I’m fine spending a little time by myself, but I’d really enjoy having someone around all the time.<br/><br/>Please apply at tzuzoorescue.com if you are interested in adopting from Tzu Zoo Rescue. More information available by contacting tzrinquiries@tzuzoorescue.com.<br/><br/>[NOTE: We are a rescue NOT a shelter, meaning WE DO NOT HAVE A FACILITY THAT OPENS TO THE PUBLIC. Typically, an application and home visit (both of which are required for adoption) MUST be completed, BEFORE a potential adopter will be introduced to one of our pets, in order to first determine that our basic adoption requirements are met, prior to introductions being made. We also utilize personal reference and vet checks (to ensure that any pets already in the potential adoptive home are current on vaccines, heart worm prevention and sterilized) in our adoption process, all of which is intended to ensure that the best match, between pet and people, is made. The adoption fee is based on on the dog's age.
