Benjy the goldendoodle finds his forever home

OUR beautiful, big, goldendoodle Benjy has found his forever home and was quite happy to head off in the car with his new family. Lovable Benjy required a very specific home due to his size and strength.

He would greet us at eye-level and seemed to think he was just a small puppy the way he bounded around. Many of our volunteers carried bruises from being dragged against gates and fences as Benjy took off at speed!

Our adoption team tries its best to find the most suitable home for our dogs as the last thing wanted is for the dog to be immediately returned. Not every home could deal with a Benjy! 

Rescue dog Gracie’s story: ‘I’ve just been to the hairdresser for a wash, cut and blow-dry. I have to go there every few months because I’m non-shedding, just like some Christmas Trees, so I need to be tidied up every so often. 

When I got home I had a good roll around on the grass to get a real smell back on me again and then I did a bit of scratching because I felt a bit itchy. Mum took over the scratching for me, especially behind my ears which is my favourite spot. It just feels so good.

‘Now, I don’t have any fleas or ticks on me because Mum puts this smelly stuff on me. Imagine if I went to the hairdresser and she found something nasty on me when she was doing my hair? I’d be mortified! So, please look after your pets, especially in the summertime.'
