My story

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

Bentley was rescued from the overcrowded LA shelters by Home Fur Friends Rescue on the day he was set to be euthanized. He was extremely malnourished and wasn’t eating at the shelter. Upon rescuing him, we fundraised to get the proper tests done to determine why he wasn’t gaining weight. GI tests show that he was low in his pancreas enzymes so we got him started on Pancreas powder which has drastically improved his digestion and absorption of nutrients!!!! Bentley was 6lbs at the shelter and is now a healthy weight of 14 lbs.

• He is 8 years young

• Has the best personality! Very energetic and loves adventuring!

• Can be nervous around new people and environments (like the vet or large social gatherings)

• sometimes takes CBD or anxiety meds to stay calm

• Meds: pancreas powder ($200 every 3 months)

• Very smart and independent!

• Not a big cuddler, but very loyal to his humans and four legged companions!

He will give you endless love if you adopt him!

More about this rescue

We are a 501(c)(3) non profit organization located in Orange County, CA. We are dedicated to rescuing dogs at high kill shelters who have been left homeless (risking euthanasia due to overpopulation), pets given up by their owners, or those found as strays/neglected. We strive to save dogs of all sizes and breeds, who have different needs, by placing them into loving forever homes. We are a volunteer, foster-home based, animal rescue located in Southern California. We operate through foster homes and adoption events. We are committed to providing the dogs in our care with nothing but the best care until they find their forever home. We endeavor to work with surrounding shelters and volunteers to create a better world for suffering and homeless pets.
