'''Benjamin''' is a [[lazy]] [[dog]] [[villager]] in the {{SER}}. He first appeared in {{NL}} and has appeared in all subsequent games except {{PC}}.

{{NHVillagerHobby}}

__TOC__

==Characteristics==
===Appearance===
[[File:Benjamin NLWa.png|thumb|left|80px|Artwork of Benjamin from {{NL|short}}.]]
Benjamin is a golden brown dog with white ears closely resembling a {{Wp|Labrador Retriever}}. He has white line-like patterns on his face, resembling whiskers, as well as bushy eyebrows and a brown nose. Benjamin also has a fluffy tail and a white belly.

===Personality===
{{Pers|lazy}}

As a [[lazy]] villager, Benjamin has a relaxed, laid-back lifestyle and will appear friendly toward the player. He often talks about food and is humorous or naïve during conversations. During conversations with other villagers, he generally gets along well with [[peppy]], [[smug]], and [[cranky]] villagers, while [[snooty]] and [[jock]] villagers may not get along with him due to their conflicting lifestyles. In {{NH|short}}, Benjamin goes to sleep at 11 PM and wakes up at 8 AM.

===In {{NH|short|nolink}}===
In {{NH}}, if Benjamin is one of the villagers who moved in during the main storyline after the villager house development quest, his house will have a combination of non-craftable furniture, plus items crafted by players during the island development storyline, primarily from the [[Log Series]] and applicable native fruit sets. He cannot have his initial house interior unless he moves out of the player's island or the {{HHP|short}} DLC is purchased, in which either the player or [[Isabelle]] can reset the interior.
