Some people worry if the new dog they will adopt is a heavy barker, well lucky you, I’m not! I only bark when I’m alarmed.  But as for what I do loudly – snore!  Well, at least that’s what my foster mom says and I will have to take her word for it.  She claims I’m the LOUDEST snorer she’s ever met.  I wonder if that means I should get extra treats.  **wink wink**  I do love my treats and an occasional Nyla bone.

I’m overall very docile.  I’m great with other dogs of all sizes (even the active puppy in the home) and look to them for comfort and reassurance, so I would like that in my forever home.  I don’t necessarily play with them but watch them for direction and comfort. 

I like keeping an eye on the humans in the house but am still very shy and don’t like too much physical touch, but I’m getting better at that every day.  I do fine in the kennel once I’m in there but have trouble going in by myself.  I do sleep with my foster mom and the other dogs in the house just fine but will sleep in a dog bed too.

I’d really like a fenced yard as I haven’t mastered going on a leash to do my business (yes, I’m fully potty trained!) but I have walked while leashed.  I also enjoy exploring untethered too.  I came into rescue after weening puppies and with a leg that I can’t put weight on from not healing properly after a break years ago.  It doesn’t slow me down at all – I can still run and do stairs!  Ideally, I’d rather not have to have a home with steep steps or a long flight to go up and down frequently.  I balance well and can still use it to pull my toys closer to me or hold onto my bone when I chew it.  The vet says I am the way I am now and I think it just makes me more unique and more cute - do you agree?

All I need now is a forever family with lots of patience while I gain confidence and unconditional love to help me learn to trust. I am a very snorey … I mean sweet girl that deserves the best! 

Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders.  Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a  particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit.  Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home.

ADOPTION EVENTS:   

Adoption events are updated as the foster home RSVP's to attend. Check back for updates on which events they will be attending. Please understand that all of our pets are in volunteer foster homes and sometimes "life" happens and the foster family cannot make it to their scheduled adoption event. If you are traveling from a far distance to meet a specific animal, please understand we cannot guarantee event attendance. You may wish to consider applying and setting up a private appointment. Private appointments are only scheduled after an application is submitted and approved.

 

ADOPTION PROCEDURE:

The first step in our process is to complete an online adoption application on our website:
Note: In most circumstances Underdog Rescue will only adopt within 60 miles of Minneapolis, MN. 
All of our foster animals can be seen by appointment with an approved adoption application. Contact us at http://www.underdogrescuemn.com/contact-us/ if you have further questions.

 

FOSTER CARE:

All of our animals are fostered in individual homes or doggie daycare facilities. While they are in our care, they are part of our families and given lots of love. We work on training, crate-training and socialization prior to adoption. Each animal's behavior is evaluated and we have a sense of its temperament and personality. We look for adopters who will give each animal the wonderful life and permanent home that he or she deserves. If you have an interest and ability to be a foster home, please visit our website  www.underdogrescuemn.com/foster-applications  and fill out a foster application.

 

NUTRITION:

Nutrition is vital to the rehabilitation and life-long health of our pets.  All of our foster animals are fed a premium diet such as NutriSource, Canidae, Orijen, Nature's Variety, Fromm, Pure Vita, Stella and Chewy's, Primal, or balanced raw diet.  All adopters are required to continue providing premium diets for the life of the animal.
