My story

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

Hi! My name is Ren and I am from a shelter in Kansas.

Ren is a lovable cattle dog mix who would love a patient home ready to help her build up her self esteem. She's a fun girl who is OBSESSED with tennis balls and could play fetch in the backyard all day. She is nervous with most new people and new situations but does warm up with time. She seems ok with cats and indifferent towards dogs.

She also loves splashing in the water if you can find a nice quiet place for her to do so. Walks have been a bit of a struggle as she is very nervous on the leash and drags me back home at the first sight of children. She was fine the first couple days (maybe from the adrenaline of the transition?) but ever since has been very clear she is not enjoying walks and does not enjoy the park. She's happiest at home, in a fenced yard, with her person throwing balls. She'd be great for someone who doesn't love walks but has a yard and a good arm!

Ren is also still working on potty training, although she does use puppy pads like a champ. This will also be something her forever home will need to be patient with and as she settles in from another transition and learns the ropes. (Slowly moving the pads closer to the door and then outside might be a good move for her?)

Although she sounds a little high maintenance, she will win you over if you are patient enough to let her show you her insecure and loving true self. We all have our little quirks and insecurities though, am I right? Feel free to apply and connect with her foster to learn more about her and her perfect forever home - it might be with you!"

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.
