My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

I am looking for a foster or forever family!

Please email fostersupport@thebondbetween.org to sign up to foster!

My adoption fee has been sponsored by an anonymous donor.
The adoption fee sponsorship credit of $500.00 will be applied during the contract process.

I am Love Bug. I am from Minnesota. I promise to live up to the name Love Bug! I am a very gentle, loyal, and cuddly boy. My fosters describe me as very affectionate. If I had it my way, we'd cuddle all day. Some people say I'm not a lap dog, and those people are wrong. You should see how tightly I can squeeze in!

When I'm not snuggled up, I enjoy being active; long walks are my favorite! I need daily exercise either from walks, fetch, a game of tug, or playing with my trusted dog friends. After a little bit of movement, I settle down really nicely! I also enjoy spending time outside. My foster family lives on a corner lot that is perfect for people-watching. When I'm not doing any of those things, I like to chew on a toy quietly.

I am a bit sensitive and sometimes I get nervous around new dogs and new people, especially when there are many of them. I can get a bit protective of my people, so slow introductions are best. However, that does not mean I do not like making new friends. I LOVE people and I LOVE playing with other dogs, I just need proper introductions.

I have pretty impressive speed and instincts, which means I need to go to home without cats. They are just too exciting!

I have been learning basic commands and have made a lot of progress; I have mastered sitting, going to my crate, down, and paw. I am pretty good at "leave it" "off" "roll over" "look" and doing finger boops, too. My fosters say I'm a quick learner. I am fully house-trained; I have not had an accident the entire time I have been with my foster. I am crate-trained, too, but I sometimes I get upset when my favorite people leave.

Love Bug is super tolerant and a great companion animal. He is still learning not to jump on people to great them, and can get a gnaw-ty when playing, so going to a home older children may be best.

From his foster: Love Bug is currently on medication for anxiety, which has helped him a lot. Love Bug needs to go to a home without shared walls.

Go meet their pets

The Bond Between's goal is to not keep any animals at our rescue office. The majority of our animals are living in foster homes until they are adopted. Occasionally, animals are living in our rescue office that are in need of a foster home.

If you would like to meet an animal at our office who needs a foster, please reach out to inofficeanimals@thebondbetween.org and fill out our foster interest form at https://www.thebondbetween.org/foster

For more information on fostering or adoptable animals, please visit https://www.thebondbetween.org.

More about this rescue

The Bond Between is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that focuses on the bond between humans and animals. We were founded in 2009 as Secondhand Hounds. Since then, we have rescued over 29,000 dogs and cats with the help of thousands of fosters, volunteers, and supporters in our community. Our organization has grown from a rescue to a first-in-its-class animal wellbeing organization... now The Bond Between! We continue to provide safe shelter, proper veterinary care, and daily necessities for animals while working hard to help them build a bond with humans. We also focus on supporting the bonds that already exist between people and pets with our pet food shelf, respite foster care program, and focus on social services.

We wake up every morning saying YES to connecting people and animals, caring for them, and helping them fill each other’s hearts.

You can help support us today by donating, fostering, volunteering, or sharing The Bond Between.
