Bentley

About Bentley

French Bulldog, 4 years old, neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and he was a proper little shit so needs an owner used to this type of dog.

New Update:

BENTLEY seems to like being the resident dog which is such a shame as we would dearly love to see him in his forever home after 12 months of being with us.

Anyone who follows our kennels or volunteers for us will know what a twat this dog has been and just how far he come along from day 1 to now - he has been hard work and very testing at times.

He has been to 2 "experienced" homes but never lasted more than 24 hours so we would much rather keep him with us all the time he is happy rather than have him messed around.

Bentley is now bonding with pretty much all of the volunteers and he only sees the person in the video once a week so this is just how much progress Bentley has made.

For a new person in a home it will be baby steps and patience but the end result will be what you see in the video.

MUST be the only pet in the home and no young children.

Write up UPDATED:

This boy has come along so much from the badly behaved dog that arrived with us back in September 2025. Don't get me wrong he can still be a little shit but he seems to be our little shit now and has accepted the staff and most of the volunteers as his people.

Bentley is seeking a very experienced handler who will not take any of his nonsense. He has failed in several homes mainly because the advice given wasn't followed. 12 hours in a new home is not what this boy needs, it will take weeks for him to adjust and bond with his new person but once he does he has so much genuine love and affection to give - we see it here daily from him.

He goes out on a daily basis with all the different dog walkers - that was an impossible job at the beginning. He now wants fuss and affection and lets you in to his "space". Don't get me wrong he does still have the odd day where he reverts back to demon dog but then he remembers that being good = rewards and good things.

Bentley is definitely not for a novice dog owner but if you have had previous experience with dogs that like to get their own way and occasional temper tantrums and are up for a challenge then Bentley may be the dog for you.

Personally I would say he would be better off as the only pet in the home as you don't want his bad habits rubbing off and also he could not be homed with another male dog as he is a bit hit and miss with them - seems to prefer the pretty girls 🤣

He will need a home where he is going to get the love and attention he needs (in time) as well as the right amount of exercise, training and stimulation.

He has obviously previously been shut away for hours in a small space which has caused his guarding of his space so maybe not go to a home where he will be left for long periods of time and no crates.

Definitely no children under 16 years old, older or none preferred.

Cats and other small furries are unknown and untested.

A secure garden with adequate height fencing is a must.
