Pet Name:

For years, my wife had been wanting us to get a dog. I have always been a dog lover, but in my 20′s had become quite allergic to some breeds. I was scared that we would get one, and have to give him up because of my allergies. One day, my wife emailed me a couple of pictures of a beautiful labrador retriever named Bentley. His owner was moving and couldn’t bring him, and wanted to place him in a good home. We met Bentley in January of ’08, and within a couple of weeks he became ours. My allergies didn’t flare up too badly around him, and now don’t bother me at all. He is truly our best friend, and couldn’t imagine life without him. We just celebrated 2 years with him, and are already planning his 5th birthday party in April, just kidding… sort of.

As far as his name, I’m not exactly sure how he got the name Bentley. My guess is it came from the fact that his tail has a little bend in it. Bent = Bentley…?? It works for me, and would have never dreamed of changing it. He is Bentley, and always will be.

Pet Owner: Sarah

Ollie is a Boggle (Boston Terrier Beagle). He is two years old. I named him Ollie after the famous Disney Animator Ollie Johnston who animated famous classics such as Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Lady and the Tramp. My dog inspires me and brings me great happiness just like the work of the great artist Ollie Johnston!

Pet Name:

About 7 years ago I started my hunt for the perfect companion. I searched online, I went to shelters, I looked everywhere. Finally, in June of 2004 I found her. Her name was Rosie and she was a 3 month old Boston Terrier, the last one left in her litter. She was Perfect!

Rosie is now 5 years old and the Queen of the house. I kept her name Rosie because she already knew it and it fits her perfectly. She is spoiled beyond belief and has broken every house rule there is. No dogs on the couch – broke it. No dogs upstairs – broke it. No dogs on the bed – yep, broke it! She is a Princess in full form, she is my world and I would do anything for my puppy!

Pet Name:

My dog’s name is Max and is short for Maxamillion, although his formal kennel name is ‘Delphmounts Max Our Million’. There’s no real story behind our choosing this name, other than we thought he looked like a ‘million dollars’ – so we named him Maxamillion.

When I first saw him he was  4 days old.  I fell in love with him – he was so cute! I sat and held him while he slept for an hour. I visited him once each week for the next 7 weeks (the breeder lived over 2 and a half hours away!).  He became more and more lively and playful as the weeks went by. When it was time to bring him home with me, he was already used to me and my scent. I hope this made it easier for him to leave his mother and his litter mates.
