My story

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

Hi! I'm Rufus! I'm from Alabama!
From his foster: Rufus is a sweet and spunky guy. Gets along great with his foster siblings. A little shy when first meeting humans but warms quickly. Loves cuddles and walkies. It does take some convincing him to settle in his crate but once there he sleeps through the night. He loves having a puppy sibling. Have not Introduced him yet to kids or cats.

Foster Update: Rufus is doing great! Sweet and affectionate. Quiet but will chime in with his foster sisters when the turkeys walk by. Has the cutest funky ear that just adds to his personality. Loves his 30# sisters, would be great as an only pup as well. Hasn't been around kids as of now. Lap dog. Crate trained.
Has had a couple of accidents but doing well with house training review. Loves walkies and does well on the leash.

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.
