Story
Ive owned this sweet girl since she was 6 weeks old and had her for a very long time. I went through a divorce and my ex kept her but due to his housing situation he brought her to me instead of a kill shelter and I have other pets and she has attacked them and due to that I have tl rehome her. I hate to but she came last and last in first out unfortunately. I have tried to make her an outside dog and she doesn't do a pen as she loves to be in bed with you and has always been an inside baby. She loves to cuddle and very friendly (other than her bark) which sounds vicious but truly is NOT! She would be amazing in a home with an elderly who needs a companion or someone who works with dogs and has time to train em and walk em a lot. She loves to take walks (with a training collar).

Story
Bentley is a fun, loving, and very energetic Mini Schnauzer. He loves long walks and lots of lap/snuggle time. He's definitely all Schnauzer with his personality traits. He has done very well with other dogs around him and in the household (he is our only pet, but our son brings his Retriever and they play wonderful together) Bentley is 17 lbs, has not been neutered, and is gray/silver with black and lighter grayish white coloring on him. He does well at all his vet and grooming appointments and has never bitten anyone. He has been with our family 3 years, but we are looking to find him a new forever home that better suits his attention and energy level needs.
