Benji - Jack Russell Terrier and Spitz Dog for Adoption in Toronto, Ontario

Hi! I’m Benji, a 10-month-old boy weighing about 9 kg (20 lbs), and I’m looking for my forever family!

First things first: yes, I know my ears are magnificent. Some might even say they look a little like bunny ears... and apparently they suit my personality pretty well!

I’m a cute, goofy and happy young boy with lots of curiosity about the world around me. There are so many things to see, smell and investigate, and I’m always ready to find out what’s happening next!

One of my absolute favourite things is being outdoors. I love going for walks, sniffing everything I can find and exploring nature, and trips to the park are especially exciting. Give me somewhere to wander, things to investigate and a little adventure to enjoy, and I’m one very happy Benji.

And if there are other dogs around? Even better! I LOVE other dogs and am always happy to make new friends. Big or small, I’m ready to say hello and join in the fun.

I’m still a young pup with plenty of happy energy and curiosity, so I’d love a family who wants to keep exploring the world with me. Whether we’re heading out on an adventure, meeting new friends, or simply spending our days together, I’m ready to make lots of wonderful memories with my people.

So... what do you think? Could a goofy little bunny-eared boy like me be the missing member of your family?

The Jack Russell Terrier is a lively and intelligent small breed known for its boundless energy and strong hunting instincts. With a distinctive white coat and often sporting tan or black markings, these dogs are full of personality and require regular exercise and mental stimulation to thrive. Jack Russell Terriers are fiercely loyal and make excellent companions for active owners willing to provide the mental and physical challenges this energetic breed needs to stay happy and healthy.

The spitz dog breed is a diverse group characterized by their wolf-like appearance, pointed ears, and fluffy double coat. Originating from various regions such as Japan, Germany, and the Arctic, spitz dogs are known for their intelligence, independence, and loyalty. They come in a range of sizes, from the small Pomeranian to the large Samoyed, but all share a common alert and lively temperament. With a distinctive spitz-type tail that curls over their back and a friendly demeanor, spitz dogs make wonderful companions for those looking for a spirited and devoted pet.
