My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Bentley! 11-year-old 25lb Shih Tzu Lhasa Apso Mix

This 11-year-young fluff gentleman is a ball guy through and through. His avorite toy? The ball. His hobby? Fetch. His personality? Fetch. (We think you get it.)

Bentley is happy, sweet, and a total rockstar with potty training and walks. He loves rubs, cozy sleep time, and car rides — just don’t expect him to be a lap dog. He prefers affection on his terms (very “I love you, but please respect my personal bubble, thank you”).

He’s great with people, but dogs? Hard pass. Bentley would like to be your one and only.

He’s also a bit of a foodie critic — kibble is not on his approved list — but ground turkey? Five stars.

If you’re looking for a delightful, easy companion who’s playful, polite, and perfectly quirky, Bentley is your boy. Grab a ball and let the friendship begin.

Forever Loved Pet Sanctuary (FLPS) is involved with events hosted by PACC911 (Phoenix Animal Care Coalition).

More about this rescue

Forever Loved Pet Sanctuary (FLPS) is the only senior-only animal rescue in Maricopa County, Arizona. Formed in 2012 as a non-profit 501[c][3] organization, the focus of FLPS is to save senior animals who are often overlooked by providing them the opportunity to thrive in a safe and caring environment. FLPS serves a public need by offering housing to a limited number of senior pets.

This safe haven, takes the burden of temporary care and housing of senior animals off of local shelters. Inevitably, local shelters resort to euthanizing these abandoned, senior animals at an alarming rate. According to a 2012 statistics report, Maricopa County Animal Care and Control (MCACC) euthanizes one animal every eight minutes it is open to the public. Euthanasia for senior residents is the primary option for most local shelters because they tend to focus their efforts on a high adoption model that includes younger “more adoptable” animals. FLPS works with local shelters and rescues to identify the senior animals in need and provide a streamlined process for interested men, women and families who wish to adopt.
