This was the first we knew about Bentley at one year of age:

“Bentley has made a massive impression on kennel staff since he has been with us. He acts like a huge, tough, scary Malinois- however he has proven not to be. Throughout his stay he has proven to be a very anxious dog who is unsure or strangers and new environments. But through time and lots of treats he has gained trust in kennel staff. He is very reliant on the handler and will keep looking to ensure the person is still there. He does need a firm hand to ensure he doesn’t drag you around and try to be cheeky. He has proven to be what we call ‘the biggest wet wipe’ in the kennels- acting very tough until told a form ‘NO’ and he melts away- he really does not like being in trouble. He is a sweetheart really.”

Bentley, born May 2022, turned out to be a super lad, and pretty much as described. He is microchipped, fully vaccinated and now neutered. Bentley could go into a home with older children. He can be selective with dogs but a no to cats.

“Bentley has been rehomed twice and come back twice through no fault of his own!!  He came back from his first home as his owner was taking him to work but, the little dog in the office didn’t like Bentley so he came back. The second home brought him back after a year due to a relationship break up. Bentley is a very clever lad and  tries his best to please and would do anything for a toy. Bentley lived with a large female dog and male dog and got on really well with them so he can live with a larger dog.”
