Get to know Benji Buttkin
Schnauzer (Miniature), 10 years old
My favourite thing about Benji Buttkin is...
Benji is the sweetest little dog, he loves his walks, food (especially celery) but all he really wants is just to be with his people, mainly me! I love his bouncy little walk and his chunky little body which has fat pads still from when he came to me and was 5kg overweight. He has the most beautiful, expressive eyes and a twisty schnauzer moustache!
The biggest challenge with Benji Buttkin is...
He wasn’t really socialised well with other dogs when he was a puppy and lived with his previous elderly owner. As a result he isn’t keen on Interacting with other dogs. He’s never aggressive, he just panics when they approach him, barks when he’s on a lead and tries to get away from them.
The most surprising thing about owning a Schnauzer (Miniature) is...
Their adorable, entertaining personality. They are very sociable and love to walk and play.
What I wish I’d known about Schnauzers (Miniature) is...
The hair grows so quickly!
