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!

Select the "Apply for Adoption" if you would like to adopt

I will likely need a leg amputation followed by some rest and relaxation, but I hear tripods get along just fine!

Please email fostersupport@thebondbetween.org if you can help!

Hello my name is Burdock, I'm from Minnesota!

From his foster: Burdock (we call him Birdie) a 1 year old GSD mix. He loves people and looooves belly rubs.

He is great with my teens, but still has a tiny bit of very gentle puppy mouthiness so might not be good with little kids right now.

He should go to a home without cats as he barks and chases them. He is reactive to dogs and has a strong prey drive. He barks and lunges at cars too. I'm timing his walks so we don't run into other people/dogs, but ideally he'd have a yard with a tall fence where he can romp around (my fence isn't tall enough for this big boy). He is very strong and will need training for leash manners. Luckily he is very smart!

He loves rawhide-style bones but doesn't seem to understand toys/balls yet

He is a lover who will flop onto you for pets. Just the absolute sweetest.

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.
