Happy Birthday Dog Adoption Day, Bentley!
We’ve adopted our furkid three years ago, today, through a Wags and Walk’s pop-up event at The Grove. Read that post here. Although we don’t know his actual birthday, Wayne and I like to celebrate on his adoption day. We always look at him and ask, “How old are you, really?!?” Depending on the length of his hair, he can go from looking like a 10-month old puppy to old grandpa with furrowed eyebrows.
He captured our hearts.
We’ve been truly lucky to have met this gentle creature through adoption. Much like humans, every animal has a story and just wants to love and be loved. Although we don’t know Bentley’s history–how old he is (vet thinks he’s seven) or what he’s been through–we love him. What’s the secret? To have faith, patience, good intention, love and trust on your side.
It was love at first sight. We followed our hearts to want to save this pup and turns out he’s the one that saved us.
Cheers to many more years of learning, living and loving.
