Adorable pooch Bentley made a rags to riches transition - after vets spent five HOURS shaving off two KILOGRAMS of matted, petrol-coated fur.
Cruel owners dumped white Shih Tzu Bentley with fur that was smelly, long, tangled, and coated in oil and chemicals.
The little creature was so frightened he still flinches to be touched - and won't even allow his owner to remove his jacket after it was put on under sedation.
Rescue centre owner Kathy Trout said Bentley's neglected state reduced her to tears, adding "he couldn't even drink water because his own fur would poison him".
