About Bentley

If you're looking for a little shadow who wants nothing more than to be by your side, Bentley might just be your perfect match.

At just 1 years old, Bentley is a handsome Maltese/Poodle mix who has spent his entire life with one loving family. He's an affectionate, well-mannered little guy who loves to cuddle, especially if that means curling up around your neck like the world's cutest scarf. At night, he's happy sleeping with his people or in his kennel, and he's comfortably crate trained when home alone. Bentley has excellent house manners and is reliably potty trained as long as he's given regular opportunities to go outside. His dream home would have plenty of room to run, sniff, and burn off his playful energy before coming inside for snuggles. His favorite toys are stuffed animals, and he's always up for a car ride, where he settles in like a seasoned road trip companion. He enjoys children and is eager to play, making him a fun little buddy for visiting grandkids. While he hasn't lived with other pets and may bark when he sees other dogs, he's otherwise an easygoing companion. He can also be a little vocal when meeting new people, but once he realizes you're a friend, he warms up quickly. Bentley doesn't shed, making him a great choice for those looking for a low-shedding companion. His grooming has been maintained at home, and his soft, curly coat gives him that irresistibly cuddly teddy bear look. We think Bentley's ideal home would be with a retired couple or family who enjoys spending time outdoors and can include him in everyday life. He'll happily join you for adventures, then spend the evening curled up as close as he can get. If you're searching for a loyal little best friend with a heart full of love and an adorable nickname like Bentley Wentley, Bentley is ready to steal your heart.
