If you're looking for a furry BFF, Ben is your guy! Oh, and did we mention he's a total cuddlebug? 🤗 Come visit us Mon-Fri 8:00am-4:00pm, Sat-Sun 10:00am-3:00pm, or call us at (231) 882-9505 to learn more about this charming fella. ***Please refrain from negative Comments.***

Meet Jesse, a charming 1 year and 8 months old Bull Mastiff lady. 🩷 With her sweet demeanor and high energy levels, she would thrive with an active owner who enjoys walking, jogging, or biking. As a kennel-broke dog, Jesse is well-trained and has had no accidents. Weighing 73lbs, she has made significant progress during her stay with us. We invite you to meet Jesse, who is spayed and up-to-date on her vaccinations. If you have another dog, please schedule a meet and greet to ensure a harmonious household. Our adoption hours are Monday to Friday, 8:00am-4:00pm, and Saturday to Sunday, 10:00am-3:00pm. Contact us at (231) 882-9505 to learn more about bringing Jesse home. *** Please refrain from any negative comments***

Let's celebrate 🥳🥰🎉 the incredible kindness of Mia & Ua' Sveinsdottir, two young ladies who selflessly organized a bake sale at the C.S.A. Art Fair in Frankfort on July 22, 2026, and generously donated a portion of their earnings to the Benzie County Animal Shelter, making a real difference in the lives of those precious animals. Your compassion is truly inspiring! THANK YOU for being beacons of hope! 💫
