Bentley’s father had originally gone to the local animal shelter to adopt chickens, but he returned home with a puppy instead.

Upon seeing a black-and-white pup with a cleft lip, just like his son, Bentley, he knew this puppy would be the perfect addition to their family. Two-year-old Bentley was delighted to meet his new best friend.

His mom, Ashley Boyers, is also excited about the budding friendship. ”Have something in common with a puppy means a lot because he can grow up and understand.” She continued, “That he and his puppy both have something that they can share in common,” Ashley.

Verse of the Day

“[Psalm 18] For the director of music. Of David the servant of the LORD. He sang to the LORD the words of this song when the LORD delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. He said: I love you, LORD, my strength. The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.”

Psalm 18:1-2
