Sweet Bentley was found wandering on Waterloo Ave in Guelph on October 1st, 2018. This spirited and energetic puppy had a limp when he walked and it was a struggle for him to get up from a laying down position. Even though he was in a lot of pain, Bentley still wanted to play, jump and run just like any other puppy. Our staff made sure he got the attention and love he needed while he stayed in the shelter and as soon as he could go into a foster home we made sure he had a comfy place to rest.
On November 6, Bentley had surgery on his left leg to remove the tip of the leg bone, so he would have full range of motion in his hip again. The veterinary surgeon was able to determine that this was an old untreated injury. We are pleased to say that Bentley is now on the road to recovery! Thanks to generous Duke’s Fund Donors, this sweet puppy got all the care he needed and more than enough love to heal his heart. Bentley is doing so well now and is in foster care, where he’s doing daily physio treatments in addition to underwater treadmill therapy treatment. We will update his story as it progresses!
