About Bentley

Bentley is a shy, adult Boxador who thrives on companionship and routine. At around 8 years old, this gentle giant weighs over 50 lbs and would ideally do well with a family that understands the significance of consistency in his life. He's friendly with both dogs and cats, making him a lovely addition to a multi-pet household. Bentley loves to cuddle and shows his affection through generous licking. Though he's kennel trained, he would be happiest in a home with limited kennel time and access to a fenced-in yard where he can play safely. While he enjoys fetch, he needs a calm human who practices gentle pet parenting, as yelling can make him retreat and less responsive. Bentley is fully potty trained but requires a bathroom schedule, as he does not alert when it's time to go out. He’s looking for a forever family that appreciates his gentle nature and willingness to learn. This could be the start of something paw-some.
