What a cutie! I am sorry to hear that you have epilepsy, handsome boy, but am glad to hear that you don't let it get you down! I'm also sorry you had to spend any time in a shelter, but I hope the first few months of your life weren't too traumatic for you and that the rest of your years are spent with your family, surrounded by love. You are a sweetheart, congratulations!

Oh my goodness. I just let out a huge gasp. Bentley, I had a silver mini poodle many years ago who looked just like you . Had your humans shaved your face for your picture I would have thought you were my Ashley now at the Rainbow Bridge! I cannot believe how your handsome self wound up at a shelter but I am so glad to read that your stay was a relatively short one and you were adopted at the age of only four months. Bentley, you and Ashley share one more thing. She, too, developed epilepsy at around 7 or 8 years of age. She was medicated daily and lived a happy, fun filled life and was with us until the age of 14. We hope and pray that you will be around for even longer than that. You just can't keep a good dog down! Have a terrific day Bentley. Meeting you has made mine terrific!!

Hi, Bentley! You are a handsome boy! I'm glad you are a rescue success story. I am sure you are living quite a wonderful life and are happy and loved so much. Enjoy your special day with your family. Congrats on DOTD!

The first person we thought of when we saw you, Bentley, was, of course, our good friend, Pam. At the same time, we couldn't get over how gorgeous you are. What a beautifully colored coat you have and that little facie is just precious. Pam has turned us into Poodle lovers as well. We would love to deliver tons of kisses to that sweet mug in person. Since we can't do that, please have the family do the honors. We're glad you were adopted quickly. We too can not believe you ended up in a shelter. Nevertheless, we're thrilled you're living a wonderful life today!! We hope your epilepsy is minor and you don't have too much trouble with it. We're so sorry you have it. Congrats on your very big day cute guy!! Happiness to all of you always!!!

Love, Daisy and Delilah in Sunny Florida

A diamond in the rough, that's what you were sweet boy! A beautiful soul just waiting for that perfect forever family to come along and scoop you up and wow, just look how your spirit sparkles and shines! I can't begin to imagine why you were surrendered by your former family Bentley, but I'm so happy to hear that your stay at the shelter was but a brief one. After all, who could resist that precious face! Heartfelt thanks to your wonderful family for going the rescue route! So many deserving creatures just waiting for a second chance at a happy life!

Epilepsy can be challenging but by all accounts, neither you nor your family have allowed your "special needs" to keep you from living and enjoying every moment of life to its fullest! And under the loving care of your devoted family, I'm sure it will be a very long and very happy life, indeed! Congratulatons to you brave, beautiful Bentley, our extra special and most deserving, Sunday Dog of the Day honoree! Hugs and kisses to you, precious one! Hope you are enjoying a very happy and fun filled "top dog" day with you proud people, chocked full of walks, treats, stuffie playtime and snuggles in your fave chair
