When he came to us, he was severely underweight and still needs to gain approximately 15 pounds. For his health and safety, Benji must be fed on a schedule and cannot be free-fed. Because he went without food for so long, he tends to binge eat if given unlimited access to food, which could ultimately lead to bloat.<br/><br/>Wed love for his forever family to continue helping him safely reach a healthy weight with patience and consistency. Benji would do best in a home with a female dog companion, as thats where hes been the most comfortable. He is dominant with male dogs, so a home without male dogs would be the best fit for him. He would also thrive as the only dog in a home where his people are around more often than not.<br/><br/>More than anything, Benji is looking for a family that will cherish him, continue building his confidence, and give him the love and stability hes been missing. If youre ready for a loyal best friend with a heart of gold, Benji is ready to meet you!<br/><br/> Adoption Info:<br/>All of our animals are fully vetted, which includes spay/neuter, up-to-date vaccines, deworming, heartworm testing and treatment if necessary, current flea/tick/heartworm prevention, and microchipping prior to adoption.<br/><br/> To start the adoption process, please fill out our application here:<br/>https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/WAG/Dog<br/><br/>Please note:<br/>The dog youre applying for may already have a meet-and-greet scheduled or have been offered to another rescue within our network.
