Why Bonded Pairs Make the Best Companions

When you adopt a bonded pair, you’re not just giving two pets a loving home—you’re preserving a lifelong friendship. These duos have already formed a deep emotional connection, providing each other with comfort, confidence, and companionship through every step of life. That bond can help them transition more easily into a new home, reducing stress and offering them a built-in best friend as they settle in. For adopters, it means twice the love and half the guilt when life gets busy—they’ll always have each other when you’re away.

Bonded pairs also bring a beautiful balance into your home. Whether it’s a high-energy pet matched with a more reserved buddy, or two snugglers who prefer life on the quiet side, their personalities often complement each other in the best ways. Watching their unique dynamic unfold is both heartwarming and endlessly entertaining. And best of all? We’re offering special adoption discounts on all our bonded pairs to help these inseparable friends find the forever homes they deserve.

They’ve already found their best friend—now they’re waiting to find you!

Zeus (8) & Princess (11) – Adoption Fee $200 (Princess has cancer with average survival time of 19 months)


Meet Zeus & Princess! These adorable petite seniors are searching for their forever home — together! Zeus and Princess have done well with other dogs, cats, and older kiddos in the past (with proper introductions, of course). Zeus is a playful guy who LOVES a good game of fetch and will be your best alert system for new visitors. Princess is a little more independent but oh-so-sweet — a true gentle soul. She does have a few medical needs, so please call the shelter to learn more. These two are ready to fill someone’s home with love, loyalty, and snuggles during their golden years. Could it be yours?

Bentley (5) & Roxie (7) – Adoption Fee $450 ($100 Discount)

Say hello to Roxie and Bentley, two best friends looking for their forever home – together! These adorable pups are a perfect mix of cuddles, charm, and playful fun.

Roxie, a 7-year-old Shih Tzu mix, is the sweet, nurturing one. She’s recently had a dental and is feeling better than ever. Roxie loves gentle attention, soft blankets, and being close to her humans. She’s a mellow girl with a heart of gold.

Bentley, a 5-year-old Yorkie mix, brings the playful energy! He loves a good game of tug-of-war and has a joyful, fun-loving personality that lights up every room. Bentley is outgoing, affectionate, and always up for an adventure – or a lap to curl up on afterward.

These two were lovingly surrendered by their elderly owners who could no longer care for them due to their own health issues. Roxie and Bentley have always had each other, and they must be adopted together to keep that special bond strong.

Ranger (9) & Roxie (11) – Adoption Fee $300 ($100 Discount)

Roxy and Ranger are a heartwarming bonded pair who are looking for a forever home together. These two beautiful Shelties complement each other perfectly – Roxy is a gentle, quiet soul who blossoms with patience and love, while Ranger is an outgoing, friendly guy who lights up every room he walks into.

Ranger (9 years) is full of charm and loves meeting new people. He’s affectionate, curious, and always ready for a stroll or some playtime. His joyful personality makes him a favorite everywhere he goes.

Roxy (11 years) is the quieter half of the duo. She can be a bit shy at first, but once she feels safe, she enjoys quiet companionship and gentle affection. She’s looking for someone who will give her the time and space to come out of her shell.

Both pups are currently at the shelter and will be adopted through our Foster-to-Adopt program while we address their medical needs. We’ll cover their care and keep you informed every step of the way as we get them feeling their best.

They’re house-trained and walk beautifully on leash, they do not have much cat experience or with young children. We think they would be ok with older kids. They’re happiest together and we are committed to keeping them that way.

Ideal Home:

  • A calm, loving environment
  • Fenced yard or regular walks, the love rolling in the grass and sniffing everything
  • A family or individual willing to adopt both Roxy and Ranger
  • Patience to let Roxy adjust at her own pace

These two are a perfect blend of sweetness, companionship, and classic Sheltie charm. If you have room in your heart and home for a bonded pair, Roxy and Ranger would love to meet you!
