History: Bentley is a striking young boy reported to be a mini schnauzer & Australian Shepherd mix who needed a second chance at a good life. He has been doing well in rescue and hopes to find his forever family soon!
A Note from the Foster: Bentley is slowly warming up to our family, especially my 10 & 13 year old girls. He has shown no signs of aggression or displeasure, but he has also not been your normal hyper puppy. He will slowly wander around the house or lay down. He is very dog friendly & I’m sure would be fine with cats. He is so soft! He is good in his kennel and I’ve never heard him bark. He is not fully potty trained, but I think this is partly due to his initial fear of being outside. He loves being held like a baby, giving kisses, and getting his ears or belly rubbed. He will be your loyal “snuggle” companion!
Adoption Fee: $750 + tax
Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
