9 year Australian Shepherd male needs new home. My sweet Bentley needs to be rehomed. I have 2 kids, one with some medical issues and it’s too difficult to give Bentley the proper love and attention he deserves. He wants so much love and space to be a dog. He is scared of older men with white gray hair. He is very well potty trained. He does have some high anxiety.
