Meet Bentley Bartholomew, the regal, 6-year-old Yorkie mix! 📏 This indomitable little king weighs in at a proud 13 pounds and oozes charm, courage, and a spirit that could light up a room! He’s ready to rule your heart with his delightful personality and boundless optimism. Bentley adores everyone he meets—yes, EVERYONE! But he has a soft spot for small children and little furry friends, the ones he once shared his throne with. You see, Bentley’s not aware of his size; he believes he’s a towering titan, a noble knight ready to defend his castle from vicious squirrels, no-good pigeons, and any leaf that dares to cross his kingdom! 🍂 But don’t worry, humans are treated like royalty—Bentley insists on belly rubs, and trust him, it’s an honor to serve him! Now, let’s talk about his past. It could be the plot of a heartbreaking drama penned by Shakespeare himself—a story of neglect, malnourishment, and a cruel illness called Erosive Immune-Mediated Polyarthropathy that waged war on his precious little joints. 💔 Bentley lost weight and mobility, but thankfully, his spirit soared like a phoenix! In an inspiring Act II, Bentley received treatment and the magic began to happen. He regained partial movement in his back legs and regained his royal weight, scooting around with four feet engaged like a determined little shadow! He’s bouncing back and now trying out his wheelchair with the grace and poise of a true monarch, worthy of the finest royal carriage—a stroller! 👑 Bentley is also neutered, heartworm negative, and perfectly castle-trained. He’s a courteous little gentleman, indicating when it's time for outdoor potty breaks and waiting patiently for his human to assist him. Dignity is his middle name, as he tolerates strollers, lifts, and medical care like the true king he is. What does the future hold for Bentley? Well, it looks like a throne on your lap, a noble steed (his wheelchair), and the possibility of gaining even more mobility with continued love and care. So, if you’re seeking a companion whose tale of resilience will inspire you, whose heartfelt affection will warm you, and whose love will truly crown your life, then Bentley Bartholomew is your match!
