About Benny

Benny is a 5 year old lurcher whose affectionate nature makes him a truly special companion. From the moment you meet him, it is clear that he is a gentle soul who thrives on human company. His calm demeanour and loving personality shine through, making him a dog who is as happy to curl up beside you as he is to bound across a field with joy. When out on walks, Benny demonstrates excellent lead manners, especially when accompanied by other dogs. He has not yet been tested off lead with them, but his behaviour on lead shows that he is sociable and adaptable. Like many lurchers, Benny has a strong instinct to chase wildlife. This trait is typical of his breed, yet he manages it well by wearing a muzzle during walks, showing that he is both cooperative and easy to handle. Playtime is where Benny’s personality truly comes alive. He delights in his toys, often entertaining himself with games that highlight his playful spirit. Watching him have his “zoomies” on the field is a joyful experience, as his energy and enthusiasm radiate pure happiness. These moments capture the essence of Benny: a dog who balances affectionate companionship with bursts of fun and excitement. Benny is more than just a pet; he is a loyal friend waiting to share his life with a family who appreciates his unique blend of gentleness and playfulness. His affectionate nature, combined with his love for toys and outdoor adventures, makes him an ideal companion for those seeking both warmth and joy in their lives. With Benny, every day promises a mix of calm affection and lively fun, making him a truly remarkable dog ready for his forever home. …read more
