Honey Bun (In Foster)
Hello! My name is Honey Bun (In Foster)!
Here’s what my friends at Española Humane say about me:
- Honey Bun is looking for that unicorn adopter: someone compassionate, patient, and as gentle as they are kind. We don't know what happened in her past to make her so shut down, but Honey's future is likely to be one of lots of indoor activities, light walks, and slow introductions. Honey is a scaredy cat about a lot of things, including but not limited to the outdoors, so if you're an avid hiker, she's not your gal. She'd love to find a quiet home with a fenced yard that will let her take things at her own pace, and give her a nice cozy crate to retreat to when she feels overwhelmed or just wants to relax. She'd also likely open up more quickly with another dog around- preferably a male or one who's on the calmer side.
Honey has been in loving foster with a cat (who she's not the biggest fan of) and a dog, who she likes to play with for about 30 minutes a day. Slowly but surely she's come out of her shell, has her goofy, playful moments, and will jump up on the bed for a little cuddle time. She desperately wants to be a snuggle bug, but gets nervous. She also licks hands to show her affection and, when she's feeling particularly brave, she'll lick your face. She adores pets, too. A pretty easy, low maintenance dog day to day, this girl has so much love to give, and deserves to find a forever home that will appreciate her in all her unique glory.
If you’re interested in adopting me, fill out an application to get a jump start on the process! We don’t offer holds on shelter pets, so c’mon in to meet and greet to decide if you’ve met your match. Applications for pets in foster care, at Ojo Santa Fe, or offsite in other programs will be reviewed by staff before appointments are scheduled.

Española Humane
Española Humane offers free services and innovative programs to help suffering pets in underserved communities. For over three decades, we have managed an open-door shelter that welcomes every animal without charge because we believe the most humane approach is to never turn away an animal in need. Spay/neuter access is critical to our mission, and our clinic is completely free to pets in Española, Rio Arriba County, and the surrounding Pueblos.
We’re determined to make a lasting difference and to squeeze every penny out of each donated dollar: 89% of your gift goes directly to the animals.
Shelter & Adoptions
Spay Neuter Clinic
Become a foster superhero.
Fostering can be as easy as having a litter of young ones in a spare bathroom before they go to an adoption event. Or, maybe you’d like an adult to spend time with your family, just to see how that pet transforms with a little love and attention. We promise it’ll be rewarding.
Join our team of volunteers
Volunteers help every facet of our work, from support at the shelter to helping with adoption events to assistance with animal transport. We provide the training and the welcoming environment. Meet new people, learn new skills, and feel good about helping animals.
Need help finding your pet?
80% of pets are found within a mile of where they went missing. Start searching right away and use printed flyers so people can call you with sightings. An ID tag or microchip will make it a lot easier to find your pet. Hopefully, they’ve already been found and are at our shelter.
