Story
Luna’s story began on the side of the road, where she was found abandoned and underweight. She was discovered with several other dogs who appeared to be her littermates. Luna took on the role of protector — the quiet Alpha among them — always watching over her siblings. Two of her littermates have since been adopted and are thriving, and now it’s Luna’s turn to lay her burden down and finally settle into peace. She came from a home with many dogs and likely faced medical neglect and food instability before arriving at the shelter. Despite everything she’s been through, she’s held onto her gentle, affectionate spirit — and now she’s searching for someone who will give her the stability and love she’s always deserved. Since arriving at BENCHS, Luna has struggled with the busy shelter environment. She showed signs of barrier frustration in her kennel, but after being moved into a quieter office space, she began to thrive. Luna has formed deep, loyal bonds with the staff who care for her most often. Because of her strong attachment, she may growl if someone suddenly enters the room — a sign she’s still learning that new people can be safe. Luna has done well with several other dogs, especially when introductions are done slowly and feeding time is supervised. She would likely thrive with another balanced dog who can help guide her, or with an experienced person who understands structure, consistency, and patience. This emotional girl craves affection — she loves kisses, cuddles, and curling up close with her people. She feels deeply and connects fully. Luna would do best in a calm, low-traffic home where she can continue to build confidence and decompress at her own pace. The shelter is simply too busy for Luna to reach her full potential. She needs peace, stability, and love — and she’s waiting for the right person to help her bloom.

Story
Meet Onix, a beautiful black mix with a gentle spirit and a big heart. At just five months old, he already weighs about 18 pounds and has the sweetest long legs that make him stand out. Onix’s mom, Cinnamon, came to our rescue with him. He’s wonderful with kids, gets along well with other dogs, and would likely do well with cats too. Onix is a happy, easygoing pup who loves to play and will make a wonderful companion. He is shy and doesn't walk on a leash yet. He is house broken and kennel trained. Highly suggest a securely fenced yard. Apply to adopt at CampCompanion.org 💲 Adoption fee is $350 plus tax

Story
🐾 Meet Penny Lou! 🐾 Penny Lou is a petite, year-old sweetheart weighing about 10 pounds. With her slender build and long little legs, she’s as dainty as she is darling. Her breed is unknown. This gentle girl wants nothing more than to be close to her person. She bonds deeply and loves attention, but she does need a bit of patience when meeting new people—she can be shy at first. Once she trusts you, she becomes a loyal little shadow who loves sitting beside you and happily chewing on a bully stick. Penny Lou is good with other dogs, though she prefers to have the lap all to herself. She was surrendered after kids in the home weren’t kind to her, so she would do best in a calm, adult-only home. She is not good with cats. She is kennel trained and has used potty pads. Since she just arrived, we’re still learning about her potty-training habits. If you’re looking for a tender, loving companion who just wants a safe place to land and a person to adore, Penny Lou may be your girl. 💛 📍 Apply to adopt at CampCompanion.org 💲 Adoption fee: $350 + tax

Story
Meet Stimie – The Tiny Bodyguard You Never Knew You Needed! 🐾 Stimie is a fiercely loyal Chihuahua who takes his job as Chief of Security very seriously. He’ll be your ride-or-die, your shadow, your personal alarm system, and your snuggle buddy — all rolled into one compact, adorable package. 💪❤️ He’s protective of his home and makes sure no one—invited or not—slips by without a thorough background check (aka a loud announcement that echoes through the house). Stimie isn’t exactly a fan of kids or cats… okay, fine, he hates them. But other dogs? He’s all about that pack life! 🐶 He is looking for a one-person home. With his person, Stimie is pure love — affectionate, loyal, and always ready for an adventure. He’s an excellent hiking buddy, walking partner, and listener (especially if you talk about how amazing he is). In public, he’s surprisingly social and might even tolerate kids from a safe distance. Stimie is also an alert barker, so apartment living is off the table — he takes noise ordinances as a personal challenge. His dream home is with a savvy Chihuahua lover who wants a fiercely devoted sidekick and doesn’t host too many guests. Think you can handle the love (and the sass)?

Story
Meet Toddie! 🐾 Toddie is a sweet, seven-year-old little guy looking for a calm, adult-only home. He’s not interested in kids — he just wants relaxed, grown-up companionship. Toddie is a loyal little buddy who loves his foster mom and has a charming way of flirting with his eyes. He’s doing well with house training but may have an occasional accident. He’s a perfect mix of cuddly and independent — happy to snuggle, but also content doing his own thing. Toddie does give a little alert bark when someone comes to the door, but he settles quickly. Toddie gets along well with other dogs. His reaction to cats is unknown. He’d thrive best in a home with one person or someone with chihuahua experience. 💛 Apply to adopt at CampCompanion.org Adoption fee: $350 plus tax
