Benny's Best Animal Rescue (2025)

Thanksgiving Update from Benny’s Best 🍂

Yesterday we took in three tiny strays found wandering the streets - now officially known as Chestnut, Butternut, and Pumpkin. Yes, we’re leaning all the way into the theme 🌰🥧

While it is Dumping Season, we’re holding onto hope that these three have humans out there missing them. We’ll be searching for owners and they’ll need foster homes in the meantime.

And speaking of fosters - massive gratitude to Kim, who didn’t even hesitate before taking all three in (and then some!). She’s been quietly doing the heavy lifting with us for a long time, and we couldn’t run this rescue without people like her. She’s also currently fostering Gummy Bear, who will get his own moment in the spotlight soon ✨

If you’ve noticed we’ve been relatively quiet on social media, it’s definitely not because things are slow - quite the opposite. A lot happens behind the scenes, and we can only keep up because of our fosters, transport volunteers, and donors who show up over and over again 👏💕

If you want to help more dogs make it safely off the streets and into warm homes, we always need foster homes and transport volunteers. Even one ride to the vet makes a difference.

Thank you to everyone who continues to support us, truly. We’re grateful for you today and every day 🧡💜🧡

Meet adoptable Nova, the monochrome mayhem machine who crash-landed into our foster squad two weeks ago ✨⭐

She’s a 1-year-old pittie mix with two modes: Olympic sprinter in the yard and melted furniture gremlin indoors. Hand her a ball and she’ll put on a whole athletic performance; bring her inside and she’ll collapse across your legs like you’re her personal chaise lounge.

Nova’s dog-friendly, tastefully nosy about cats, and wildly motivated by snacks. She is also a proud supporter of “recreational chewing,” which is why she’s crated when left alone - otherwise she’ll attempt a DIY home remodel.

She loves active humans, dramatic entrances, and being the star of whatever room she walks into ☄️💜

Say hello to Aries! 🐏

This 70-lb absolute HUNK of a Husky/Rottweiler mix is almost 2 years old, does great with cats and dogs, thinks older kids (11+) are pretty cool, and will totally sell his soul for a pig ear.

Aries is friendly, playful, cuddly, and built like someone accidentally pressed “XXL” when ordering a lapdog. He’s housetrained, loves hikes and long walks, and definitely needs an active, strong human who won’t get swept away when he decides to make friends with a squirrel or two.

He will be getting neutered soon - which means he’ll need a foster home where he can recover, eat snacks, and judge your interior design choices.

For now, we’re just celebrating this handsome adventure noodle joining the rescue family. Welcome to the squad, Aries. You’re safe, you’re loved, and yes, we heard you - we’ll stock up on pig ears 💜

🤍 Say hello to Snow! ❄️

About a month ago, this gorgeous wooly husky was found in pretty rough shape - malnourished, matted, and running on empty. Thankfully, Cherelle & Co. scooped her up, got her cleaned, fed, and reminded her what it feels like to be safe and loved.

Since then, Snow’s been making up for lost time. She’s sweet, playful, and a professional toy thief (species doesn’t matter - dog, cat, human sock… all fair game). She also takes her side hustle as a yard excavator very seriously and never skips a chance to turn a puddle into a spa day 💦

After getting spayed last week, Snow just leveled up again - she’s been officially adopted! She’s now living her best life on Mercer Island with her devoted dog dad and husky brother, who’s already showing her the top spots for deer-watching and mischief.

Huge thanks to Cherelle & Co. for being her first heroes, and to Snow's new fam for giving this bright, goofy floof the forever home she deserves.

Welcome to the good life, Snow 💜

Meet Kylie!

Catahoula mix • 3 years young • Professional people-herder • Ears that can't agree on a direction

True to her herding roots, she loves to “supervise” household activities (especially anything involving snacks). She enjoys a good cuddle sesh and thrashing toys around like they owe her money.
BUT, she will stop everything she's doing when her favorite cartoon is on.

She’s currently living her best life in a foster-to-adopt home in Lake Stevens, charming everyone with her mismatched eyes and big personality.

Basically, she’s 1/3 beauty, 1/3 grace, 1/3 whackadoodle 🤪

We're delighted to have her as a part of the Benny’s Best crew 💜💜

Next up, Cookies & Cream (CC) 🍪🤍

CC is a Lab mix (and possibly part professional heart-melter) who recently joined the Benny’s Best crew. She was surrendered after not getting along with her pup sister, but she’s now living her best life in a foster home in Edmonds - collecting cuddles, snacks, and compliments from everyone she meets.

She takes a little time to warm up to new people, but once she’s in your circle, she’s the sweetest little shadow you could ask for. Calm, loyal, and quietly hilarious.

Welcome to the family, CC. We already adore you💜

I received a call from a contact at Blue Pearl Pet Hospital in Oly on Thursday evening. Faith, a sweet 2-year-old GSD girl in need of immediate medical care, had suffered complications from a procedure at home (I'll spare you the details). As a result she required a complex spay surgery that would’ve been beyond her owner's ability to afford - leaving them with two choices: relinquish her or put her to sleep.

Because Faith lived in Lewis County, Joint Animal Services was unable to step in, and the local shelter was at full capacity. Blue Pearl needed a 501(c)(3) rescue to take ownership of Faith so they could sever ties with her previous owner and make the necessary medical decisions on her behalf.

I agreed to take Faith in, and despite the pain she was in, her spirit remained high. She’s a total sweetheart - cuddly and friendly with everyone she meets. She’s already capturing hearts, and it’s no surprise that we have a long line of people ready to adopt her once she’s recovered.

The surgery came with a bill of $1,600. While the team at Blue Pearl worked tirelessly to reduce the costs where they could, the financial burden is still significant.
The surgery went smoothly and Faith is recovering well. She is now staying with Christy, one of the managers at the hospital, who’s giving her the extra care and attention she deserves while she heals.

If you’re able to contribute to her care, we would be deeply grateful. Any donation will help us continue providing the medical care that pets like Faith need. Your donation can be made here:

I’m beyond grateful for the community support that helped us get Faith the care she needed. It’s been a complicated and messy situation, but seeing how everyone came together to help this sweet girl has been nothing short of inspiring. Faith is safe, loved, and in good hands, and we’re excited for the future she has ahead 💜

Introducing: Tippy, the floof who went from stray to stay in record time ⏱️🤍🖤

Found wandering in early October, he’s now busy charming his foster mom, who fell head over heels in 0.23 seconds flat.

This distinguished little gentleman (Pomeranian/Border Collie, perhaps?) will be officially adopted once he gets snipped next week ✂️🐾

Adoption update 🥳🎉💕

It didn’t take Leo long to figure out where he belongs - right next to his new mom, snuggled up on the couch for good 💜

Congrats to Beverly & Leo's new furry siblings!
Here’s to soft landings and even softer snoozes.

Stay tuned as we have more pups to showcase 📻

Meet Leo, a 4-year-old, 15-pound Havanese who recently joined the Benny’s Best crew! 👋

Now, full disclosure - Leo can’t see you… but he can sense your snack drawer from three rooms away👃🍪

This little fluff nugget recently went fully blind due to retinal issues, but don’t feel sorry for him -Leo’s thriving! He’s mastered the art of echolocation (a.k.a. running into stuff with confidence) and maps new spaces faster than your Roomba.

He’s sweet, snuggly, great with other dogs and kids 💜

Leo’s looking for a calm, loving home that can keep him safe, cozy, and stocked with treats.

📍Available for adoption now - because true love doesn’t need 20/20 vision 🩵

BREAKING NEWS: Muffin has officially failed foster care! 🎉
(…which, as we all know, is the best kind of failure.)

After settling in with her amazing foster crew in Burien, it became clear she was already home. Muffin now spends her days hanging out with her Boston Terrier brother, two feline roommates, and her teenage human brother, soaking up all the love and attention she deserves 💜

From a scared little heeler to a confident, happy girl - Muffin’s story is exactly why we do what we do. Congrats to the whole family! 🐾 🧁

Hi hello - it's been a minute!
And we're back with a very special 🐾

Meet Sophie - the teeny 2-year-old GSD mix who's tougher than she looks. For more than 6 months, she lived crated in the back of a sedan. By the time the animal lover (and real-life hero) Heidi found her, Sophie was skin and bones, struggling to walk, and covered in bed sores.

Heidi spent a long time working to convince Sophie's previous owners to surrender her, and when they finally did, she poured her whole heart into nursing Sophie back to health. With patience, proper enrichment, and endless love, Sophie began to trust again and re-learned how to be a dog.

Heidi knew that she did not have the long-term resources to give Sophie everything she deserved, so she made the selfless decision to find Sophie the perfect forever home.
We got her spayed, and just a couple of days later she found her happily-ever-after: a Bothell family with a big yard, two awesome kiddos, and a cat sister to protect and love 🏡💜

Despite all she's endured, Sophie is pure sweetness, and it was no surprise she won her new family's hearts the moment they met.

Congratulations, Sophie & her new fam!! 🎊🎉

And to Heidi - THANK YOU. You didn't just rescue Sophie... you gave her back her life.
