Hi,
My name is Bentley and I’m a six and a
half year old salt and pepper male
miniature schnauzer. I am a very sweet
dog and love to follow you wherever you
go. I really want to be by your side at
all times, but I also need to rest due
to my special medical condition. I have
epilepsy and I am on medication that
keeps it under control (my meds only
cost about $10/month); my foster parents
haven’t observed a single seizure since
they rescued me over three months ago.
The drawback to my meds is that they
make me tired easily and I don’t have a
lot of extra energy for playing. I was
rescued from a high kill shelter in
Mississippi after my former owners could
no longer take care of my special
medical needs.
I have natural ears and a docked tail.
I’m heartworm negative and, other than
my epilepsy, I have a clean bill of
health from the doctor. I am up to date
on all my shots, on heartworm
preventatives, on monthly flea & tick
treatment, and I just had my annual
teeth cleaning. I am neutered and almost
completely housetrained (I still have
occasional accidents).
I do fine with all three of my foster
brothers, and I even do fine with my
eldest foster brother that is an alpha.
I haven’t been exposed to cats, so I
don’t know how I will do around them. I
do fine on a leash, but I do get tired
and tend to give out on long walks. I do
well on car rides and I’m a great
traveling companion. I do fine with
children, but I will probably do best
with older kids that won’t pick on me or
expect me to play with them constantly.
My foster family really thinks that I
could probably fit well into any home,
but I would probably do best in a home
where my new parents want a lap dog
instead of a playmate.
If you think that you might be my
forever owner, I would love for you to
consider making me the newest member of
your family.
Hope to meet you soon.
Love - Bentley |
