Story
Papaya, or Pya as her friends call her, is a beautiful 3-year-old, 25-pound Whippet with the most gorgeous brindle coloring and a personality to match! Pya is a quiet, well-mannered girl who is fully house-trained and has free roam of her foster home. She's never gotten into anything she shouldn't! Her foster home provides constant company and interaction, so a home where she would regularly be left alone for long periods may not be the best fit for her. She would love a family where someone is home much of the day or where she has a furry friend for company. Papaya would thrive in a home with another playful dog or children who enjoy spending time with her. She has energy to burn and would love having playmates to keep her entertained, engaged, and active. A securely fenced yard is important for Pya so she can safely run off her zoomies, explore, and enjoy some outdoor playtime. When playtime is over, Pya is all about the snuggles! She sleeps in bed with her foster mom and has a very specific bedtime preference: burrowed deep underneath the covers. Who needs a blanket when you have a Papaya? She's still working on her leash manners, and walks can be a bit of a challenge, but using a harness helps make things easier. With patience and consistency, she'll continue to improve. If you're looking for a sweet, playful companion who enjoys having friends around and turns into a world-class snuggle bug at bedtime, Papaya might just be your girl!   Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, dental, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee:  $595.00Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 10, 2026, 10:49 am

Story
Niabi may be a little shy at first, but give her a day, a few tasty treats, and a little patience—and you’ll discover the sweetest velcro girl you could ask for. Once she bonds, she’s all yours, happily sticking by your side through every part of the day. She tends to connect more quickly with women, while men may need to give her a bit of extra time to earn her trust. But once she feels safe, her true personality shines—happy, playful, and full of life! Niabi LOVES to play, and stuffed toys don’t stand a chance in her world—she’ll happily shred them like it’s her full-time job. She’s also got the cutest excitement hops, jumping up in the air when it’s time to eat or go potty. It’s impossible not to smile watching her celebrate the little things. She does great with other dogs and even cats, making her a wonderful addition to a multi-pet home. And when she chooses her person, she loves deeply—staying close, soaking up affection, and giving it right back. Niabi is looking for a patient, understanding home that will let her warm up at her own pace—and in return, she’ll give you a loyal, joyful best friend for life Local adoption fee is $200(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Story
I am looking for a temp foster 11/6-11/12. If you can help out, please email fostersupport@thebondbetween.org Hi, my name is Maddi and I am from Minnesota! A portion of my adoption fee has been sponsored by Rare Breed Dog Treats! The adoption fee sponsorship credit of $175.00 will be applied during the contract process. Maddi is a sweet girl looking for a calm, patient home where she can build confidence and discover how wonderful the world can be! She feels most comfortable with another friendly dog by her side, and canine companions help her feel safe and have fun. Maddi would thrive in a home with a fenced yard, as the big world outside can still feel a little overwhelming. She’s working hard on her potty training and does best with a consistent schedule and regular opportunities to go outside. She’s even learned to use pee pads when needed! When she’s not enjoying time with her dog friends, Maddi’s favorite place is curled up beside you or cozied under a blanket. With patience, consistency, and positive training, Maddi is sure to blossom into a wonderful companion. Her ideal home is quiet and patient, with people committed to positive training. Especially with helping her become more confident in new outdoor environments. With time and consistency, Maddi has all the potential to truly shine. From the Vet: Maddi completed her full heartworm treatment protocol as of 9/4/26. Yay for Maddi! We recommend that Maddi have a repeat heartworm test performed at 9 months post treatment (June 2026) and stay on monthly prevention year round so she is always protected and never has to go through this again! A young dog like Maddi should have little to no impact on her overall health as a result of the previous infection and treatment. We are so happy for her and hope she finds her forever home soon after all she has been through!

These pups are in Minneapolis, Minnesota too!

L 75458, R 122BBeretta's the name, and loving people and walks is the game! My foster family reports that I am a very sweet and friendly girl. I am always super excited when I get a chance to meet new new people and new dogs.  I enjoy going on a good walk where I can sniff all of the things. I would love to chase small furry animals on walks, so a home without cats or small animals would be best. I am still working on learning how to go up long flights of stairs and being left alone in my kennel, but I do enjoy relaxing in my kennel when people are home during the day.  I just love people and want to be with them as much as possible! If you're looking for a velcro dog, I'm your girl!    To see other hounds currently in our care please visit the Hounds in Our Care page on our website.

L 74838 , R 11ACalling all snugglers! I am a calmly outgoing, polite, and sweet girl who loves to get pets and affection whenever I can. No need to get up-  I'll come to you for attention. I am a master at walking on all surfaces. Slippery floors? No problem. Stairs? Basically a pro. I get along very well with my greyhound foster sister- we mostly just hang out and enjoy each other's company. I do well on leash and enjoy getting out to see all of the sights! I am a little too interested in small animals so I would do best in a home with no cats or small animals. I don't mind my kennel one bit- if I'm feeling tired I will put myself in there for a quick nap. Do you have room in your heart for a cuddle bug like me?   To see other hounds currently in our care please visit the Hounds in Our Care page on our website.

JSP Jinglemequik L 75616, R 53AHi, I’m Jingle! When I think it’s time to get up, I will sing the song of my people and sometimes bark to wake you up. Good morning! I like to hang out and nap in my kennel, and am also pretty good at walking on a leash. I love belly rubs and affection, collecting soft toys, and checking the counter for tasty food. I enjoy attention from well mannered children (and adults!), and am generally a friendly girl. I like investigating the local flora and fauna while out on a walk, but I don’t need to chase it–just looking is fine. If I were to be naughty (which I would never) I can be pretty easily redirected. Other than my early morning WAKE UP WAKE UP routine, I am a very quiet girl. Do you think I’d be a great addition to your home?
