About Benny
Benny is a gorgeous little ball of fluff who loves attention and pats. He gets anxious when he is amongst a crowd of dogs, so we'd like to find a home where he will be the only dog.
Benny was born in care as his mother was heavily pregnant when she was surrendered to rescue. His littermates and his mother have already been adopted.
Benny is fostered in Wagga Wagga, and transport to his new home can be arranged for a small additional cost.
Medical notes
Benny has a very noticeable underbite, and underbites are common to ShihTzus. Treatment for an underbite is done only in cases where the malocclusion is so severe that it is affecting the dog's ability to eat or close its mouth. As a normal occurrence in many small breeds, there is rarely any tooth removal or orthodontics needed but it will need to be watched as he grows to maturity to make sure it doesn't cause him any problems.
Adoption details
Our goal is to match pets' personalities and exercise/training requirements with people whose lifestyle they are best suited to. This reduces the chances of the pet winding up in a pound again. Please don't feel offended by our adoption process, it is for everyone's best interests:
1. Submit application for adoption (obtain at Best Friends Pet Rescue website)
2. Homechecks are conducted on approved applicant(s)
3. Best match selected according to the pet's personality and needs
4. Successful applicant notified to place holding deposit while transport/pickup arrangements made
5. Adoption transaction completed
This pet has been adopted and found love with its new family.
