About Ben
Ben is a beautiful big boy searching for a GSD savvy home.
Just like all Shepherds, Ben is an active and strong dog who loves people (and loves to greet them by jumping up to say hello!)
Although he is 5 years old, it seems as though he has had little to no training, so he will need a home who will help him learn some manners. He is an innately good boy and wants to do the right thing but will just need a helping hand from a gentle and consistent person.
He can be a little nervous and shy in new environments, so he would appreciate a kind and patient home who will allow him the space and time he needs to adjust.
He would be best suited to a home with children aged 12+ due to his size and boisterous energy when he is excited.
At this stage we are looking for a home where he is the only pet, as he is relatively avoidant with other dogs and lacks socialisation. He would need to continue having positive interactions/socialisation with dogs in neutral spaces to build his confidence.
Although Ben loves his outdoor adventures, he is looking for a home where he will be treated like a family member and allowed inside where it is safe and cosy.
