| Bentley is home and doing great for day 1 Got home this morning with my beautiful Bentley. The ride home was a bit rough on him. The roads were so up and down and twisty turney poor little man got sick. Thank god for pee pads, I brought 4 with me for just that purpose. I don't think I could get a better baby out of that litter. He is so loving, pick him up and he will snuggle right in. Lay down with him on top of you he curls around your neck and is content. I joked maybe I should change his name to Scarf since he likes to act like one. Has pottied several time, each time on his pee pad. Last time he was outside his pen playing with me and he ran back in just to pee. He wants to be buddies with the cat but all she wants to do is growl and hiss. Just a matter of time and I think she will at least tolerate him. Only issue I see so far I need to be diligent with is he's a bit of a chewer. Any tips on gently breaking him of the habit is appreciated. I even noticed in our play session on the floor he was actually trying to chew the carpet. So I see a potential for a big problem. He likes he chew toy but the carpet or my fingers just seem so much more inviting. As promised I've attached a picture of him. Love the one lop ear. Thanks everyone for the warm welcome so far and for any chewing advice anyone can provide. Anne and Bentley |

| Just be consistent with the chewing thing. When he's chewing something he isn't supposed to, say "ah ah" and remove it from him or him from it and put something he is allowed to chew on in his mouth. Then say "good boy" in a very praising way. He's going to be chewing for a while because he's teething so just stay on top of it and be consistent..he'll get it. Congrats on getting him home! He is adorable!!! By the way...I actually like that name - Scarf. You should think about it. (I like Bentley too..just sayin hehe)

Donating YT 3000 Club Member | Hello and Welcome to YT. Congrats. One of the things I am doing is if he is biting my finger I tell him no. Then I give him a chew toy. If he starts chewing on it I say good boy
