Puppy Bentley (On Trial 4/3/14)

Bentley a delightful 7 week old, male, Staffy cross puppy. He is a bright and chirpy little boy. The only thing he likes more than a cuddle is a romp around with the rest of the dog crew. He likes to paddle in the kiddie pool and splash around with the hose!

As he is only still a baby he has a long way to go with his training. He will come if you call him, but then again he is an excitable little puppy and you do not even have to use his name, he just comes running. We are working on toilet training and it is coming along well. I have him along with the others crated of a night time and their bedding is generally clean of a morning. It will be much easier when he gets a home and bed of his own.

We always recommend puppy-training classes to give your new family member the best start in life. All dogs and puppies need plenty of affection, exercise, and training.

Bentley is a handsome black and tan boy with soft, fluffy puppy fur. He is too young to be left home alone all day so will need either another canine friend or someone who doesn't work full time to keep him company. He needs to be allowed inside, at least when people are home, and to sleep inside (even after he's an adult).

Bentley has been in my care for the past three weeks along with 2 of his brothers. These boys along with the rest of his litter had to be taken from their mum early as she had trouble with her milk supply. Bentley's brother Beau is also available for adoption http://www.petrescue.com.au/listings/279434 and you can meet them both at the same time.

For more information or to meet Bentley please phone foster carer Anne on 02 4943 3651 or 0412 837 867. Bentley is in foster care in Charlestown, NSW (Lake Macquarie, south of Newcastle).

Bentley's $450 adoption fee includes his desexing, vaccinations, flea and worm treatments, and microchipping. You can see all our available dogs at www.dogrescuenewcastle.com.au
