This boy is an 8-year-old, 62-pound Terrier mix with a friendly attitude and a love for walks in the warm weather! Benji is a medium-energy fellow who would do well in a home where he can fetch balls, play with his beloved squeaky toys, relax, and find quiet spaces to take afternoon naps. Benji is fully potty trained and knows "sit," "stay," "come," and "heel!" Benji would do best in a home without small children and small or male dogs but could do well with a calm female dog! He will require a meet and greet for your resident dogs. He will thrive with a confident handler who understands his needs! Benji is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccines. You can visit him at the shelter Tuesdays through Sundays from 8:30 to 5:00 PM!

The Babinski Foundation is a private 501c3 animal shelter located in Pequot Lakes, MN. We are a safe place to surrender dogs and cats. We also are a stray drop-off facility for stray cats and dogs.
OUR STORY
The Babinski Foundation was established in 2010 by Donald and Elizabeth Babinski owners and founders of Babinski Properties which owns multifamily housing in Minnesota, Florida and South Dakota. He and his wife Elizabeth were working tirelessly to get the animal shelter opened which was their dream, but Donald Babinski passed away August 11th, 2014 before the shelter could open. Elizabeth continued where they left off and the Foundation opened in January 2016 in Pequot Lakes, MN. Elizabeth passed away on November 13th, 2020. Donald and Elizabeth’s dream was finally realized, and Donald and Elizabeth’s surviving family and friends will continue to work hard to fulfill their mission.
