Support and Health

How much training will I need?

Needs settling in

Can I be left alone?

Potentially, once settled

In his previous home, Benji was left between 4-6 hours and was settled during this time. We recommend that any home alone is to be built up gradually once settled into his new environment.

Do I have any medical conditions?

Existing conditions

Benji has a current medical condition, namely Hypersensitivity Skin Disorder, that will require consideration before this pet is rehomed.  

Our rehoming team will be able to give you further information if you apply to rehome him, and you are a successful match.  

We would also advise that any medical conditions, be that historic or ongoing, are discussed with your own vet prior to taking them home. 

Due to the nature of the medical condition, a vet call with one of our onsite vets will be required before the pet goes home.

Who I can live with

Can I live with dogs?

Yes

Can I live with cats?

Yes, conditionally - Benji could potentially live with a dog-savvy cat

Can I live with small pets?

Yes, conditionally - He can potentially live with securely housed small pets

Additional information

Benji could potentially live with a calm, female dog, pending an on-site dog mix.

Family and environment

What kind of family am I looking for?

Benji could potentially live with children aged 8+

He is a polite and friendly boy who loves a cuddle and a good belly rub.

 

What type of environment would suit me?

It is not essential that Benji has his own garden, providing he is given plenty of opportunities to go outside for exercise and toilet walks.

About Benji

Brilliant Benji is on the search for his forever home! He is a sweet and gentle boy with lots of love to share. He enjoys toddling about in the garden or going for a stroll, before he settles down with his humans for plenty of cuddles and a good old snooze. This wonderful Westie is sociable, friendly and downright adorable- stealing the hearts of all those he meets. Now he is just hoping he will meet a family that he can call his own.

Westies are charming little dogs with lots of energy and plenty of personality. Learn more about the breed at Ask Woodgreen.
