Description

Hi there! My name’s Bentley, and I’m a 60-pound bundle of fun, energy, and heart. I might look like a grown-up dog, but between you and me... I’m still a big ol’ puppy inside. I’m learning about this whole “being a good boy” thing, and I’m trying really hard! Before now, no one ever really taught me much, but my foster mom has been helping me learn all the important stuff — like not using my mouth when I play (I get a little too excited sometimes!) and that tennis balls are way better for chewing than hands. I'm making TONS of progress. I’m already house trained and crate trained, and at night I sleep in my own little mudroom spot like a champ. My family asked my now foster mom to watch me and never came back for me. I couldn't believe it! Talk about heartbreak. I am very VERY lucky that my foster mom is trying to help me find a new home. I love to play and run and be silly! I did great at the dog park, but I like to keep my food to myself — so I’d do best with someone who understands how to help me with sharing and manners. I haven’t met any cats yet, but those squirrels? Eh, they don’t impress me much. I’m a happy boy, but I dream of finding that special person who really gets me — someone patient, kind, and maybe a little experienced with energetic dogs like me. I just know that with love and some training, I can be the best companion ever. I’ve got so much love to give, I just need a family who will help me figure it all out. Could that be you? Love,Bentley PS. Some of my pictures are before I had my fancy day at the groomers.PSS. A fenced in yard is required.
