Bentley Bogtrotter & Friends…

Part 2 of the Blog about my new dog…

I thought this time around I would introduce you to the other animals that live here with my new dog Bentley. Today you’ll meet Casper and Charlie, our two cats, Bryndal, the eldest of our four softies, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, next is Colin, then Morgan, the newest addition, and Tilly, the youngest of the four. You’ll also meet my daughter, Joanne’s dog, Lucy, or Raster or Ratty, as I call her, who lived with us, until Joanne moved into her own house last year and her cat Sox, who, it would seem wishes to conquer the universe.

Below are some more of the photos of Bentley, this time with his new chums:

Sox - No one would have believed, in the early years of the twenty-first century, that human affairs were being watched from a cat basket...

Well there you have them, in all their glory…

Bentley has also established himself as a bit of a Magpie too, as he nicks things and hoards them in a little stash at the top of the landing, where you can always find his toys and bones too. It looks like we have young kids again since he came, with his stuff everywhere. The other day I found him with Margaret’s reading glasses in his possession, on the bed – he was licking the lenses…I told her he had been cleaning them for her.

If he thinks he is in trouble he takes on another animal’s attributes too, those of a Guinea Pig as he scuttles across the floor with his belly scraping along it and his little legs almost like a reptile’s…and he really does look like a Guinea Pig then, probably due to his puppy colouring.

He still spends most of the day with me and then some time with his new mates, in the evening, then some more time with me in the Studio, before retiring to bed. He is proving more than a little inspirational at the moment, which is great.

Anyhow I hope you like the little fellow and please feel free to drop him a line anytime via the website at:

Look out for more from Bentley in future Blogs, as I keep you up to date with his many adventures. BTW: The first person to send an email gets a free gift!

Until next time have fun!
