Big Ben needs a home desperately

All Heart Pet Rescue

**********************

Big Ben has been at All Heart Pet Rescue for 10 months now.

He comes all the way from Kashechewan.

He was saved by some locals just before the "round up' was to occur in the
community.

His distance travelled to be saved was:
Kashechewan to Moosonee: 140km (by plane)
Moosonee to Cochrane (by rail): 300km
Cochrane to Powassan: 403km ,by truck

Since Ben has been at ALL HEART PET RESCUE in Powassan he has been neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, flea treated, blood work done.

He is a loving boy with a few bad habits.

He does like to get into the garbage (after self sufficing all those years)
and he doesn't like cats, rodents or any other varmine.- in that aspect his
name could have been "hunter' instead of Ben.

He isnt actually a Big dog, but rather a mid sized. He is aprox 65 lbs with
his weight fluctuating 8 to 9 pounds while living in the kennel environment.

I have done a lot of leash training with Ben. He can heal on leash, lay
down, come when called, and shake a paw from time to time.

He is a medium to high energy dog.

He is a very good eater most days. While others he wont touch his food.

He will protect his food from other dogs, but doesn't have an issue with
people being around his food.

Ben comes when called and is an escape artist when it comes to chain link
fence. A six foot fence isnt a challenge for Ben at all.

Ben doesn't go far when let out loose. (although always supervised)

He is loving and likes to snuggle into people. He is missing a few of his
front teeth which we assume is from rooting through frozen trash before he
arrived at the pet rescue.

He needs a home desperately.

Wont someone take him home.

Even though his vet costs have exceeded 400.00 We would like a 100.00
donation toward the care of other animals at All Heart Pet Rescue.
