About Me
Bentley is playful, affectionate and ready for adventure. Highly social and friendly with people, dogs and cats. This sweet boy will need ongoing care to manage a seizure disorder and a skin condition.
My Story
All hail King B! Bentley has that wonderful Golden disposition: he’s affectionate, playful, and devoted to his humans. He’s good with cats, loves to play with other big dogs, relishes a car ride, and swings his dog toys like he’s hitting for the bleachers.
He’s seen children on walks and was friendly, but he hasn’t spent any significant time with kids.
“King B” has two medical conditions, both well-controlled: a seizure disorder (pills twice a day) and a chronic skin issue (a bath once a week).
His side-eyes are world-class, he doesn’t require a special diet, and he’s an exceptionally good treat-taker. Our loss is your gain!

Getting to Know Bentley
Bentley remains playful, affectionate and ready for adventure. He is contining to work on his social skills with other dogs, learning how to be appropriate and respectful, and he’s getting better. He loves to wake his foster family in the morning by nuzzling and giving kisses. Bentley also loves running and playing with his toys.
GBR is continuing to work with Bentley’s veterinarian to find the right combination of medications for his seizures and skin.

First Few Days in Foster Care
Bentley was very anxious his first few days in foster care but has settled down. He loves to play with other dogs and is very active, but it does not appear he was socialized with other dogs previously; he loves other dogs buts doesn’t understand cues when they have had enough or want to be left alone.
Bentley loves attention (petting) and cuddles. He always asks for more, likes to be close to family members, and seems uncomfortable without the presence of a person.
Bentley is on medication for seizures and skin issues.
