Love Is Blind season 8 meets Dog Day Out... and we're ready to say, "I do!"

Thanks to VCA Charities' amazing partners at Minneapolis Animal Care & Control, in collaboration with their Dog Day Out initiative, we are grateful for the success of the Fido Field Trip Program! Back in the Spring, the shelter dogs got their own “Love is Blind” adventure when the fabulous ladies of Season 8 joined the fun, taking some shelter pups out for unforgettable field trips filled with smiles.

Did you know that research shows that dogs who experience a single day outside the shelter are 10x more likely to be adopted?! These outings give shelter dogs a break from the kennel, which reduces stress while increasing community volunteerism.

Meet Shadow, a seven-year-old Beagle mix with a heart as big as his smile!

With his handsome black, brown, tan, and white coat, Shadow is as striking as he is sweet. At 32 pounds, he’s the perfect medium size—not too big, not too small, but just right for walks, snuggles, and everything in between.

Introducing Spud, a 10-year-old Bull Terrier with a pink nose, a black spot on his noggin, and enough personality to power a small city. At 43 pounds, he’s compact, charming, and absolutely convinced he’s the perfect size for your lap. One look at those big, pointy ears and his mile-wide grin, and you’ll know this guy’s a whole mood.

Spud is the kind of dog who makes every day better. He’s got a delightful mix of silly and sweet.

Let’s cuddle.” He’s got pep in his step and a twinkle in his eye, especially when squeaky toys are involved.

Crafty? You bet. Spud is the kind of guy who knows exactly where you keep the treats and will stare at the cabinet until you "accidentally" open it. Curious? Absolutely. He wants to investigate the world.

This handsome, white-coated gentleman may be 10, but no one told him that. Spud’s youthful spirit and giant heart are ready to bring love, laughter, and a little bit of joyful chaos to your life.
