Miley Cyrus, 28, is known for her love of animals. Not only does she have a pack of adopted dogs, but a menagerie that includes cats, horses, and pigs. When she and Liam Hemsworth divorced, all of the animals stayed with Miley in Los Angeles. And in April, she introduced one special animal to her crew: a bulldog who had been taken in by firefighters in Fresno. She named the beauty Kate Moss and took her to set with her while filming the “Midnight Sky” music video.

What a wild & bittersweet week. The day we lost Pepper just so happened to be the day I brought this sweet boy home with me… This is Benji! 🐾 He’s from the @bestfriendsanimalsociety sanctuary in Southern Utah and is a ✨dream✨ of a rescue dog. He loves to cuddle and meet new friends (human & canine) and has quickly adjusted to life in his new home environment. Benji also enjoys squeaky toys, outdoor adventures, and anything he is allowed (or not allowed) to eat. He is the happiest, smartest boy, and I’m so grateful to be his person. I cannot wait for him to perfect his manners and become his full, goofy self as time goes on! I want to give many thanks to Best Friends Animal Society for all the work they do to save the lives of animals big and small and for helping me and Benji find each other. If you love animals of any kind, you should definitely check them out! 🧡 Even though we just entered each other’s lives, I feel like I’ve known Benji forever. I’m super excited for many adventures with this guy by my side! P.S. Feel free to comment what breeds you think Benji is. I’m pretty sure he’s got some Border Collie in him, but who knows what else! 🐶
