9 Steps for a Happy Puppy!

Bentley is my 2-year-old, West Highland White Terrier puppy. We rescued him from Westie Rescue Tennessee in July of 2019. He is a big ball of energy, but he is also my ray of sunshine.

Step 1 - Rise and Shine

In the morning, you should start by waking Bentley up from his slumber. Well, more accurately, he always wants to be the first one to wake you up and greet you with good morning kisses. It is one of the best ways to wake up!

Step 2 - Feed Him

Once you both wake up, you will want to feed him breakfast. Bentley eats Hill’s Science Diet kibble which helps with his mobility, and joint health. He makes sure to enjoy each bite by taking out a singular piece of kibble, taking it away from the bowl, eating it and then going back to the bowl for another piece of food. He repeats this cycle until all his food is gone.

Step 3 - Take him out to go to the bathroom

When Bentley is done eating his breakfast, he will need to go out. He will tell you this be ringing the bells on our back door. He knows how to do this, because when he was a puppy, every time we took him out, we would ring the bells so that he would associate the bells with potty time.

Step 4 - Take him on a walk

One thing Bentley really enjoys is going out for walks around the neighborhood. You will want to put on his favorite bowtie harness so that the leash doesn’t pull at his neck. After that, be prepared to stop every 2-5 seconds so that he can pee on any fire hydrant, tree or bush he sees.

Step 5 - Be a Friendly Neighbor!

When going for a walk, sometimes Bentley will need to stop for more than just a pee break. Since Bentley lives in a neighborhood, you must make sure to grab a bag, and pick up after him. It’s the polite thing to do.

Step 6 - Let him enjoy an afternoon nap

After a busy morning, Bentley is usually tired out from all his activity, and decides to rest up for the busy afternoon ahead of him. If there was a competition for best cuddler, Bentley would win first place. During afternoon nap time, you will most likely find him on the couch laying on one of his many blankets watching Deal or No Deal.

Step 7 - Take him out to play catch

Next on Bentley’s agenda is his favorite part of the day: Play time. Put on his puppy bumper so that he cannot escape through the fence and let him run free. He loves it when someone throws the ball so that he can run and catch it.

Step 8 - Drink Water

When Bentley gets too tired to run and catch the ball, he will slowly make his way inside, grab a drink of water and catch his breath. Sometimes he will see the neighbor’s dog out and will go to greet him, which causes what I call zoomies where he will make figure 8’s around our yard. Whenever that happens, the combination between that and playing ball will make him extra tired.

Step 9 - Brush his fur

Sometimes when Bentley goes outside to play, he can get his fur a bit dirty. If you find that he looks a little dirty, grab a brush. You will want to gently brush his fur. He will try to paw it away at first, but eventually, he will realize that he likes being brushed.

Step 10 - Give him a Good Boop

At the end of a long day, Bentley will turn in for the night. He will go make himself comfy in bed whether you are ready to sleep or not. Make sure you give him a boop and tell him he is a good boy so that he knows that he is loved.
