Benji is a lovely old boy, he is quite advanced in years and finds himself homeless through no fault of his own. Dogs this age still have a lot of love to give and still need someone to care for him as long as they understand the requirements of a dog this age. He still like to play and sniff and walk, but of course his time of earth is limited to it would be a palliative care type situation. Please mention all of this on your application so we know that you’ve read and understand the profile.
