Bentley is doing great, he has now had all of his shots, and after he turns five months old I'll be scheduling him to be neutered.  He is house-broken now and has grown into a new collar (he weighs 40 lbs!).  Bentley got to go to the dog park here for the first time last week and loved it-he first ran around meeting all the people, then went and played with the other dogs.  He is extremely well-behaved around all dogs and people, and his puppy classes will begin next month.  I've attached some pictures from the day at the dog park.  The Great Dane in one of the pictures belongs to a friend of mine and just loves playing with Bentley.  It's as if Bentley doesn't realize he is outweighed by almost 80lbs!
