Hi there! Nice to meet you, I'm Bentley and I am the perfect young gentleman. I came to the shelter as a stray just before Thanksgiving and spent the last 2.5 months with what I hoped was my forever family. Sadly, they had to move and could not take me with them. So here I am, back at Front Street in search of a family who will love me as much I promise to love them. At just over a year old, I am told I am pretty darn mellow. I love nothing more than to snuggle up and laze around. My previous family reports I am potty-trained, although keep in mind in a new environment, I may have an accident or two. I am almost crate trained, although I prefer to be with my humans as much as possible. I am reported to do well around other dogs, but I would do better in a home with no cats. I have also enjoyed the company of children, but please remember a slow and proper introduction to anyone and anything new is important.

Please remember that the shelter is a stressful environment; many dogs come to Front Street as strays without any known history. While staff and volunteers do their best to learn about each dog, behavior in the shelter is not always the same as behavior in a home. Keeping the 3/3/3 Decompression Rule in mind is important. Three days for initial decompression, three weeks to learn the routines of your household, and three months to start to feel relaxed and safe in the home. When you adopt, foster, or are a new pet parent, it's especially important to consider

*** Bentley's adoption fee has been paid for with a donation from a community member ***
