Sadly, we have to report the passing of big Benji – the last of Leading Petcare’s ‘old guard.

I had the pleasure of looking after Benji and walking him, since he could be picked up in one hand!

He was one of the early regular bookings for Leading Petcare.

I’d see him every week for the first eleven and a half years of his life, by which time he’d grown into a majestic, sage looking Boxer.

He was such a gentle, and cheeky big dog. And he enjoyed his naps! Many a time I’d let myself into his house and shout his name several times before finding him laying on his back, legs all over the place!

I know the house is going to feel so very much empty for owners Janet, Neil and Sarah. But Benji has given them so many special memories.

Due to the pandemic, I hadn’t seen much of Benji this past year, but I know I too shall miss the big fella.
