My story

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

Hi! My name is Honey Brooks and I am from Missouri.

Honey Brooks is a loving, sweet girl who adores people. It's clear she didn't get as much socialization as a puppy as she should have, so maybe she's trying to make up for it now by getting and giving all the love possible. Because of her lack of experience with other dogs, she can often behave in ways that they might find rude. She enjoys other dogs, but other canine residents will need to be tolerant because she can unknowingly be annoying. She has not lived with a cat, but when around one at the vet, she showed minimal interest, so would likely do fine living with one.

Because she was kenneled overly much before coming into rescue, Honey has lost the instinct to keep her space clean and will potty in her kennel. She has learned that when she goes outside, she's supposed to potty, and is working to learn that when she needs to potty, it's time to go outside. She does well with regular walks with her people and going outside on a schedule. She does well overnight when allowed to be with her people. When left alone, she does best gated in an area that is easy to clean. Patience, perseverance and treats are all key to helping her learn.

Honey is learning to do stairs. Right now, she can do one or two steps well, and even three with some prompting, but she does have to be carried up and down a full flight of stairs, and when she wants to cuddle with you on the couch, you need to lift her off an on. Luckily, she's small! She loves squeaky toys and has a lot of fun taking them apart. This girl has so much love and affection to give the person who is willing to help her leanr the few things she missed out on as a puppy.

From the vet team: I have an upcoming surgery to remove my right eye due to pain caused by glaucoma and the eye is non-visual. I also had masses examined which were found to be non-cancerous. My future adopter should monitor any future mass development with a primary veterarian.

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.
