Bently is a medium-sized, male Collie/Shepherd mix puppy. He's vaccinated and altered, ready to join a loving home. This sweet boy enjoys playful moments and gets along well with children, dogs, and cats. Currently located in Boulder, CO, he’s looking for a forever family to call his own.

About Bently

Bently and his siblings were rescued from a drainage ditch in Texas when they were just a few weeks old, along with their momma. A kind woman fed the family until a rescue could take them in and help nurse them back to health. After a bit of time for momma to adjust, they were transferred to a new environment where they’ve been vetted, altered, and socialized. Now, Bently is ready to find his forever home. We estimate he will weigh around 20 to 30 pounds as an adult, building on the sweet, loving, and playful nature he currently displays. This charming boy gets along well with kids, dogs, and even cats, making him a fitting companion for families.
