Benito – zusammen mit Blanka

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

mixed breed, 7 years old, male Benito has learned to fight his way through life. Even he had to live on a chain for a while, was passed around, and yet he still hasn't lost one thing: his self-confidence. Benito is a rather tough, self-assured little male dog – currently a bit too good with food, but full of life. Particularly touching is his role as a protector: Benito watches over his female friend Blanca, giving her security and support. He takes on this responsibility quite naturally – without being aggressive. He is clear, present, and knows what he wants. Benito is very well suited as a second dog, also to an existing female dog. He needs people who can lovingly but consistently guide him and show him that he can also take on some responsibility. Then Benito can simply be a dog – happy, charming, and loyal.

Mischling, 7 Jahre, männlich Benito hat gelernt, sich durchs Leben zu kämpfen. Auch er musste zeitweise an der Kette leben, wurde herumgereicht und hat trotzdem eines nicht verloren: sein Selbstbewusstsein. Benito ist ein eher tougher, selbstsicherer kleiner Rüde – aktuell noch ein bisschen zu gut im Futter, aber voller Lebenswillen. Besonders rührend ist seine Rolle als Beschützer: Benito passt auf seine Freundin Blanca auf, gibt ihr Halt und Sicherheit. Dabei übernimmt er diese Aufgabe ganz selbstverständlich – ohne aggressiv zu sein. Er ist klar, präsent und weiß, was er will. Benito eignet sich sehr gut als Zweithund, auch zu einer vorhandenen Hündin. Er braucht Menschen, die ihn liebevoll, aber konsequent führen und ihm zeigen, dass er Verantwortung auch mal abgeben darf. Dann kann Benito einfach Hund sein – fröhlich, charmant und loyal.
