Story

Loki is still searching for his furever Valentine 💝 Loki has been at the shelter for 434 days, making this his second Valentine's Day without a home 💔 Loki is the sweetest boy who deserves the best home. He has come a long way from the scared, starving boy who was left in a hotel room. Loki loves going on walks with our volunteers, hanging out in the office for his one on one time, and getting all the love from his shelter family. Despite us making the shelter feel like home as much as possible, it's not the same as a furever home. Loki recently was a hero and went to the Petwellness Center, where he donated blood to a dog in need. ❤️‍🩹 Loki is 6 years old & the bestest boy all around 🥹 Loki does need to be the only animal in the home and a home with no small children.

Story

Hi, my name is Boomer and I'm about 8 years old. I was rescued by Bond County Humane Society from Bond County Animal Control. My story is a sad one and not for the faint of heart. I was raised in a home since I was 5 weeks old. I was part of a family that had a toddler and a cat. Through no fault of my own I was rehomed in October of 2024. The new owner abandoned me in December 2024. The reason given was they couldn't take care of me. They had no idea how expensive dog food and vet care would be. I ended up at Bond County Animal Control where I was at high risk for euthanasia. Bond County Humane Society had met me and could not let that happen. They found a foster home for me and took me in. My foster mom says I am a very sweet boy and I'm good with her several cats. One of the cats that doesn't usually like dogs likes me and we groom each other. I know some commands and I am very willing to learn. I want to please people if I can. My foster mom says I whine when I need to go outside to potty. My biggest fault is I get very excited when I meet new people and dogs. I never went our very much when I was growing up to meet people and dogs. I am working on getting a little less enthusiastic. I would probably do best with a young dog that shares my excitement. A female dog would be best since I was neutered so late in life. I do need to have a high fenced yard. In my previous home I would jump the fence and play with the dog next door. I am available for immediate adoption. I am neutered, UTD on vaccinations, heartworm tested, treated for internal and external parasites and micro chipped. My adoption fee is $150. If you are interested in making me a member of your family please complete an Adoption Profile in person or on-line at www.bondcohumane.org. Email the completed profile to the address provided. A copy of our policy regarding warranties, refunds and returns is available upon request.February 7, 2025, 6:36 pm

Story

SPECIAL NEEDS Meet Henry This handsome hunk of love is looking for his furever home. Henry came to the shelter with a severely swollen back leg. We were told it had been swollen for some time, and he never got the proper medical care he needed. After being in our care, he went to the vet and it was determined he has a broken femur. Due to the time frame of when the injury happened, likely it was months ago, the vet said the leg was now healing on its own, and he does not need surgery. Henry needs a calm, laid-back home where he can continue to heal. He loves everyone he meets and wants to soak up as much attention as he can get. He would do well in a home with older children. Henry is 4 years old and weighs 62lbs. He wants to be the king of his castle and be the only pet in the home. His adoption fee is $130. He will come current on his age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped, heartworm tested negative and neutered.
