He's also getting used to a slightly new regime which includes not being allowed in the kitchen. The injustice of it! That's where all the food is!
He sits on the other side of the safety gate looking at me with those big brown eyes imploring me to let him in. I'm making point of going over regularly with some extra tasty treats for him and giving him lots of praise so he knows he isn't in trouble - he just can't go in that area. Instead we have 'dog corner' which is a nice little alcove with a handy cupboard for his food, tablets and all the other paraphernalia that he comes with.
Here are a few photos. The one of us outside the hotel was taken just before we went into it as the new owners for the first time. Fair to say that the front of the hotel is right up there at the top of the list for sprucing up.
The next one, of Bentley doing his crocodile impersonation was taken at Cockington Country Park. He loves it there, there is everything a goldie needs. Other dogs to play with, plenty of space to run like the wind, squirrels to chase and best of all lots of streams to wallow in.
This next one is from the grounds of Torre Abbey which is about 200 yards away from where we live. We certainly fell on our feet when we found this place, it's perfectly located.
The hotel isn't open for business yet. We open the doors to our first guests on the 13th of this month.
That gives us another week or so to get the place clean and shipshape. 
As I write this bentley is sleeping at my feet after a mammoth grooming session he's obviously dreaming, probably about squirrels or romping in the sea. I do believe he's going to like it here.
Good luck and best wishes to you all.
