Story
Don’t let the name fool you. This handsome boy is all dog, all heart, and full of personality. Kitty came to BENCHS as an unclaimed stray from the City of Mankato, and we have since learned more about his background to help us find the right match for him moving forward. Kitty was previously known as Houston and was rehomed in May 2025. He lived as an indoor dog and did well with people, including children ages 8 to 14. He was crate trained overnight, rides well in the car, and enjoys human attention. He is a smart dog who can open certain doors and may slip out of a tie out if it is not secure, so supervision and good management will be important. Kitty weighs about 68 pounds and was born on April 20, 2023. He is a young, energetic dog with a lot of enthusiasm for life and enjoys showing off the commands he already knows. In his previous home, Kitty lived with dogs and did well with a spayed female, but he was involved in a serious incident with an intact male dog. Because of this history, Kitty is dog selective and would do best as the only dog in the home or with careful, experienced placement. He also has a high prey drive and should not live with cats, chickens, or other small animals. Kitty is a bright, powerful young dog who will need a home that can provide structure, clear boundaries, and continued training. With the right environment and guidance, he has the potential to be a loyal and rewarding companion. If you are an experienced dog owner looking for a confident, intelligent dog and are prepared to meet Kitty’s needs, he may be the right fit for you.

Story
At just 3 months old, Ying Yang is already proving that she's got all the ingredients to become an incredible family dog. This beautiful puppy transferred to BENCHS from another shelter and has quickly won us over with her sweet, curious personality. While we've listed a breed mix as our best guess based on her appearance, the truth is we have no idea what breeds make up this adorable little girl. Whatever she is, she's 100% good girl. Ying Yang approaches life with confidence and enthusiasm, always ready to explore something new or make another friend. She enjoys meeting new people and takes on new experiences with the kind of curiosity that makes puppyhood so much fun. One thing that's clear is that Ying Yang absolutely loves other dogs. She's spent her entire life surrounded by canine companions and is wonderfully social with them. Because of that, we think she would make an excellent addition to a home that's looking to add a second or even third dog to the family. She seems to thrive when she has four-legged friends to learn from, wrestle with, and play alongside. Ying Yang is growing quickly, so her future family should be ready for all the adventures that come with raising a large, active puppy. She's very food motivated, loves working for treats, and is already learning "sit," catching on quickly with positive reinforcement. She also loves Kong toys, enjoys a good belly rub, and is always happy to soak up affection from her people. While we haven't had the opportunity to see how Ying Yang does with cats, we think she would likely do well with a thoughtful, slow introduction. As with any puppy, continued training, socialization, and positive experiences will help her grow into a well-rounded adult dog. Ying Yang is looking for a loving indoor home where she can be a true member of the family, continue learning, and enjoy all the comforts that every puppy deserves. If you're looking for a confident, affectionate puppy who's eager to learn, loves other dogs, and is ready to become your next adventure buddy, Ying Yang just might be the perfect fit.

Mixed Breed (Medium) German Shepherd Dog

Story
Meet this incredibly resilient 2-year-old shepherd mix who is ready to experience what a real home should feel like for the very first time. Her life hasn’t been an easy one. After being given to her previous owner as a puppy, she spent much of her time confined to a basement, and later, alone in a trailer. For months, she lived in isolation, with someone stopping by every couple of days to leave scraps of human food. With no guidance or routine, she learned to survive the only way she could, even teaching herself to use the bathtub as her bathroom. Despite everything she has been through, she has never shown aggression toward people. She is incredibly friendly and genuinely enjoys being around humans. She has accepted new people with great joy, and it’s clear how much she craves connection. She also loves to play with toys, and watching her discover play and joy is something really special. Since coming into our care, she’s already started to transform. She is now eating dog food and doing well with a consistent feeding routine. She absolutely thrives on the daily attention she receives from staff and volunteers, soaking up every bit of kindness she’s given. When provided with a routine she can depend on, she has truly begun to flourish. Her story is one of quiet endurance and untapped potential. She simply hasn’t been given the chance to learn what it means to be a dog in a loving home. She is still starting from scratch in many ways. She has not had formal training and is continuing to learn what consistency, structure, and guidance look like. But what she does have is a clean slate and the ability to build a deep bond with someone willing to be patient and show her the way. We are not yet sure how she does with other dogs or cats, so slow and thoughtful introductions will be important. She will need an understanding adopter who can help her continue learning the basics, including potty training, structure, and routine. In return, you’ll get the opportunity to completely change a life and watch her blossom into the dog she was always meant to be. After everything she’s endured, she’s more than ready to finally be someone’s dog.
