Story
Grandpa Meatball arrived at BENCHS as a stray, so we do not know much about his past. What we do know is that this little senior has a very big personality and an even bigger love for people. Grandpa Meatball does have chronic dry eye, which means he requires daily eye drops and regular cleaning to keep him comfortable. Our team provides his eye care multiple times a day, and he handles it like a champ. His slightly crusty eyes are simply part of who he is, and we think they add to his unique charm. He is incredibly people oriented and absolutely adores attention. If you sit down near him, there is a very good chance he will scoot closer, climb into your space, and make himself right at home beside you. Personal space is not really his thing, he prefers to be close to the people he loves. When he is not seeking affection, Grandpa Meatball enjoys relaxing with soft blankets, stuffed animals, and cozy beds. He also has a very impressive sploot, stretching out on the floor and showing off his adorable little toad-like back legs. Because he can get a bit enthusiastic with affection, Grandpa Meatball would do best in a home without other pets or small children. He would thrive with someone who appreciates a dog that is deeply devoted, affectionate, and full of personality. Grandpa Meatball may be a little quirky, but that is exactly what makes him so special. He is loving, funny, and wonderfully unique, and for the right person he is going to be an incredibly loyal companion. If you are looking for a dog who will make you laugh, keep you company, and love you with his whole heart, Grandpa Meatball might just be your guy

I’m the new pup in town, and I’m officially accepting applications for my forever family. I may be young, but I’ve got a big personality, an even bigger heart, and the biggest floppy paws you’ve ever seen. (They slow me down sometimes… but I like to think it adds to my charm.) A Little About Me I’m a confident, brave (and a little silly) girl who absolutely adores her humans. Wherever you go, I want to go too—I’m basically your furry shadow… just much cuter. I’m very handler-focused, which means I bond closely with my person and love to learn, work, and grow alongside you. I enjoy walks and exploring the world—there’s so much to see that I sometimes get a little distracted, but don’t worry… I’m super smart and picking things up fast (especially when treats are involved—those are my favorite!). Because I’m intelligent and driven, I’ll do best with a family who can provide structure, clear rules, and confident guidance to help me become my very best self. Puppy Life Is Hard Work I try really hard not to get into everything… but hey, I’m a puppy! I’m learning my potty skills and improving every day—my foster mom says she’s proud of me, and I believe her. When I’m not exploring, I’m busy doing important puppy things: • Playing with toys • Eating (I love all food) • Bouncing around • Following my humans everywhere • Sleeping like a champ At night, I settle nicely into my kennel and snooze until morning. My Social Skills I love people and being part of the action! Because I’m energetic, alpha and confident, I do best with medium to large dogs who can match my play style and a handler who can maintain set rules and appropriate boundaries. I do have a natural prey drive, so I’d be happiest in a home without cats or small animals. My Perfect Match If you’re looking for a loyal, smart, adventurous companion who will stick by your side and make you laugh every single day… I just might be your girl. She's scheduled to be spayed April 13th, 2026 and can transfer into her adoptive home after.               April 2, 2026, 9:15 pm
