About Bentley

Bentley is a playful and cuddly Lab Hound mix who’s eager to be your little shadow. At just 3 months old, he adores following you around and being included in your daily activities. Whether it’s playtime, belly rubs, or snuggles, Bentley is always ready to be part of the action. He enjoys toys of all kinds, including ropes, balls, and even cat toys with bells. Walks and car rides are also among his favorite activities. Good with dogs, Bentley thrives best with pups his size or larger dogs who understand puppy boundaries. Although he can be a bit nervous around big dogs at first, once he feels comfortable, he loves to play. He also gets along with cats and would likely excel in a home with a playful, dog-friendly feline companion. Bentley is great with children and has no specific preferences when it comes to adults. As a young puppy, Bentley is still learning the ropes. He isn’t house trained yet and doesn’t know any commands, meaning he’ll need continued guidance to develop good manners and boundaries. He can be mouthy and jump up on people, so patience is essential. Currently, he’s working on crate training, as he barks and whines when left alone. A home where someone is around most of the time would suit him best, allowing him to build confidence. This energetic little guy is looking for a family who understands both the joys and the challenges of raising a puppy. If you’re ready to commit to training and nurturing Bentley, he will repay your efforts with an abundance of love and companionship. If you and Bentley seem like a great match, you’ll be connected with his foster parents for more discussion before arranging a meet and greet. Our adoption process aims to ensure a perfect fit for both you and Bentley. Check your spam folder for our emails while waiting for the adoption application review.
