My name is Benji and I am a 3 yr. old Westie and Lhasa Apso mix. When I was 9 mths. old, I was dumped at the Jacksonville animal shelter. I was rescued by a local rescue group. After being adopted and returned 3 times because of my dominance aggression, I was adopted by my foster mom. Mom says my behavior is improving. She adores me. My dad is an amazing guy. I bit him several times when they first fostered me, but he understood my issues and told mom that I needed to stay with them forever.
I live with Paxton, Baxter, Jackson, Reno, Amy, Shelly, Avery, Blake and Court. Their webpages are linked below. Mom had to take a break on fostering because of my aggression issues. Mom and Dad took me to Dr. Juarbe-Diaz,a vet behavior specialist in Nov. 2003. Dr. JD said that we had to have a moratorium on dogs for at least 6 months, to help me with my problems. Mom was sad about taking a break on fostering, but she said that I was more important and that was her job as my Mom.
Mom sews belly bands and prissy pants for the rescue group and even tried to make doggie dresses, so guess who she used as her doggie model? I play along with her insanity because she gives treats and kisses on me alot. I am dreading the day that she decides I need to wear topknots and bows like the Shih Tzu boys. I am very curious and love to investigate everything in the house, which includes desktops, tables, boxes, etc..
