About Benjamin
Middle aged corgi x seeking long term commitment. I've been married before and was left high and dry, so if you're here to play swipe left đ I'm a family man and dream of long walks to the fridge and lazy sundays on the couch with snacks and netflix. đ I'm not fussy, I'll have whatever you or the kids are having. The vet said I have a loud ticker but still have a lot of years and life left! I'm not one of those stage 5 clingers and will happily amuse myself while you go off and do your human things but when you get home I'll serenade you and do my happy dance just so you know how much I missed you while you were gone. Saturdays are for the family and if you even whisper the word car I'm there.. adventure is my middle name đThe first time I come back to your place I might leave a little bit of my parfum de benny but its only once to make me feel more at home. I'll never do it again and I'll faithfully guard the family forever. Likes.. Other dogs, kids of all ages, chicken, snacks and guilt trips. I'll pull that last one if you ever take me to the vet or try to leave me in the car while you put fuel in. In the words of Hootie and the Blowfish.. I only wanna be with yoooouuuu. Soooo swipe right if you're into middle aged gingers with a whole lotta love and chicken to give đŸ Benjamin
Medical notes
Benjamin has a grade 3-4 systolic heart murmur, and has recently had chest x-rays. He is well enough to not need heart medication at this stage, but it could be a possibility in his future. He will need a 6-12 monthly heart check with a vet, and his heart health can be monitored at home by keeping a regular record of his resting respiratory rates.
He came to us with severe dental disease, but he has since had a dental scale and polish and had 11 teeth extracted.
Being a senior boy, he is showing some early signs of nuclear sclerosis which is the medical term for a bluish transparent haze that develops in the lens of the eye in middle-aged to senior dogs. This is considered a normal change in the lens associated with aging, and is observed as a cloudiness or bluish discoloration on the pupil.
Benjamin has been desexed, microchipped, heart worm tested and is up to date with his C5 vaccination and flea, tick, heart worm and intestinal worm prevention.
