About Ben & Jerry
Ben and Jerry came from the pound very scared and bewildered. They have settled down and are learning new things. Their former owner went into care so their life experiences have been limited. They are gentle affectionate dogs who love playing ball and are very social with other dogs. They are not used to being picked up so this needs to be done slowly in a calm relaxed manner. They are very affectionate and willing to please and make good eye contact with you. They look like brothers and want to stay together. Jerry is a bit stockier at 8.4kg and Ben is 6.4kg. Both have short coats.

NEEDS RESCUE EXPERIENCE: Many people grow up with, or own a dog who has had no bad experiences in life. A dog who is confident and well rounded. However, many rescue dogs have not been as lucky in their lives.
These dogs need someone with previous rescue experience and an in depth understanding of and experience in building relationships with these kinds of dogs.
Adoption details
DoggieRescue is a charitable organisation and as such we rely very much on volunteers to manage our adoptions. We answer initial adoption enquiries by email or phone and then arrange an appointment for you to meet some of our rescue dogs.
At DoggieRescue we believe our dogs deserve to find that special someone who will love them and look after them forever. We know that there are homes out there that are willing to accommodate one more little member of the family and dedicate time to their well being.
