Story
Sweet, loving little Bentley, a typical terrier! Loves to run and jump like a gazelle in the yard. He is a hunter, though, so be sure the yard has no visitors like chipmunks, groundhogs, rabbits, etc. before he runs free.
Like all terriers, Bentley is active and quick-moving. However, he is also responsive to directions; in fact, Bentley is very sensitive and affectionate and is eager to please.
Unfortunately, for unknown reasons, he is terrified of men. We are working on this trust issue, but he will most likely be comfortable only in an all-female home.
Bentley eats ravenously with a slow feeder dish, sleeps all night, and is completely housetrained. He rarely barks, is fine alone for a few hours, and is not destructive. What more could you ask for?
Bentley is a real mix of breeds! His foster ran a DNA test on him and it came as
18% Chihuahua
16% Chow chow
11% Rottweiler
11% German Shepherd
10% Shih Tzu
6% Doberman Pinscher
5% American Cocker Spaniel
All other small percentages: Lhasa Apso, Keeshond, American Eskimo, American Pit Bull Terrier, Yorkshire Terrier, Toy Poodle, Border Collie, Shetland Sheepdog, Standard Poodle!
If you are seeking a loving little companion, who will enjoy the outdoors with you, and then snuggle up beside you, Bentley is your guy! Just like the high-class car that shares his name, he is a high-class boy!
