  • Why are you looking to rehome this pet?
  • Benji is an energetic boy who loves to play fetch with a ball and burn his energy off, he will then sleep for most of the day and comfortably be left alone for 4-5 hours. Unfortunately, since having a second baby I don’t feel in control to walk him off a lead with a ball with 2 small children in tow meaning he’s not getting the exercise he needs & is struggling with being left. Additionally the new demands of life with 2 small children and the prospect of trying to manage childcare when I return to work as well as ensuring the dog has been walked and not left too long isn’t seeming feasible. Benji would benefit from a home with a family who can offer daily walks and who have a predictable routine. He is good with children. We have a cat but I can’t be sure he would be ok with a cat he doesn’t know.
  • Ideal home
  • Active household
  • Does your pet require a secure outdoor space?

Description

Benji is an energetic boy who loves to play fetch with a ball and burn his energy off, he will then sleep for most of the day and comfortably be left alone for 4-5 hours. Unfortunately, since having a second baby I don’t feel in control to walk him off a lead with a ball with 2 small children in tow meaning he’s not getting the exercise he needs & is struggling with being left. He enjoys walks playing fetch with a ball or long walks. He likes to swim/ cool off in water. His recall is good and if he does follow something of interest he will always find his way back to you. He is so gentle with our toddler. He loves attention and cuddling/strokes.

FurDopt Safety Advice: You MUST read our buyer's checklist before contacting the advertiser.

Buyer's checklist to avoid scams!

Keep all communication on Furdopt.com – Avoid moving to external platforms where scams are common.
Never send a deposit unless you have viewed the pet in person – Scammers often ask for upfront payments and disappear.
Don’t share your ID or personal details – Protect yourself from identity theft and fraud.
Beware of phishing scams – Avoid clicking on suspicious links or emails asking for login details.
Be responsible, do your own research – Verify the seller, their background, and the pet’s history.
Ask lots of questions – A genuine seller will provide health records, vaccination details, and pet history.
Meet in a safe place – Always visit the seller’s premises to see the pet in a secure environment.
Check for warning signs – Unusually low prices, urgency, or reluctance to meet in person are red flags.
Request vet records and microchip details – Ensure the pet is healthy and legally registered.
Avoid sellers who refuse video calls or in-person meetings – Scammers often hide behind fake listings.
Trust your instincts – If something feels off, walk away and report suspicious listings.
