Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi, my name is Bentley! I’m not quite as small as you may think—I’m just a short-legged ham of a dog. I’m quite the character! I LOVE being outside no matter the temperature. I love to run around and smell everything! I am 100% potty trained and will give a little grunt/bark when I’m ready to go outside. I’m very curious about cats since they’re about my size, but for the most part I leave them alone. I get along great with dogs, big or small. Sometimes I’ll grunt at you for attention or to play, so don’t confuse that with needing to go out—although honestly, I’ll take either! I’m totally fine just laying around if you’re feeling lazy. Sometimes I like to cuddle, and other times I just flop wherever. I love walks and car rides, too. Honestly, I’m a chill dog who just loves to be wherever you are and do whatever you’re doing! I will say, although I love my foster mom, I am definitely a man’s dog—I absolutely adore my foster dad!!! Kids are unknown; when my foster parents play with me, I might gently put their hand in my mouth, but I never bite down. With how calm my demeanor is, I think I’d do just fine. I can’t wait to find my forever home! Bentley is from Owner Surrender. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.
