Although they’ve had a difficult start to life, Benji and his brothers are happy, friendly puppies. They are looking forward to finding their forever family. Benji is still young and will need some guidance and training along his journey to becoming the perfect companion! Foster comments: Benji has been at our place for the past 3 weeks. Benji still has separation anxiety and does not do very well when left alone especially in the crate. He is slowly getting used to the crate but having crate trained puppies before, I think at around 8 months(Benji) training requires a bit more time I find. Benji is a very calm puppy, no destructive nature, a total beauty. We have trained him with some basic commands and is slowly socializing with people and other dogs during walks. He is very gentle to walk with as well. Surprisingly no husky energy in him, very quiet at home too.
