Chihuahua puppies and dogs in Minneapolis, Minnesota

Sam came into rescue with his Pomeranian fur brother after their owner was evicted. He was the mighty protecter of his shy brother. He can be a little nippy in the beginning until he feels safe, so we would recommend a home with older children. He loves to go on car rides and leash walks. He has finally learned to go for a potty break off leash in the fenced yard. He has now been completely vetted. He did wear a belly band until after he was neutered to stop marking. He loves to run and play chase with the other small dogs. He seems to prefer the ladies. He is fostered in East TN, but transportation is included in the adoption fee and provided by Rescue Riders LLC. Please let me know if you have any questions. Please email us for the link to the adoption application

Oreo is a 5-year-old Chihuahua mix. She is about 12 pounds and is up to date on all shots and is fixed. She is good with kids and adults, mostly housetrained. Just a sweet little girl.

Meet Jewel 💎🐾 Jewel is a sweet 10-year-old, 14-lb Chihuahua mix with a heart as precious as her name. She’s an easygoing girl who gets along wonderfully with dogs of all sizes and truly loves being close to her person. Jewel is house trained, uses the doggy door like a pro, and is also comfortable using potty pads if needed. She does great on car rides and would happily be your little co-pilot for errands or adventures. Jewel is looking for a loving home where she can enjoy companionship, cuddles, and being part of the family. If you’re searching for a loyal, loving, low-key best friend, Jewel might be your perfect match 💖

Meet Fable! Just as sweet as her name suggests, this precious girl is about 2 years old and weighs 8.5 pounds. Fable is a gentle Chiweenie with the calmest little spirit. She’s quiet, loving, and happiest when she’s curled up in your lap soaking in affection. She has such a peaceful presence and would make a wonderful companion for someone who wants a snuggly, easygoing best friend. 💛

🐾 Meet Winston! Winston is a 3-year-old male long-haired Chihuahua mix, weighing in at 23 lbs, and he’s searching for a patient, loving forever home. Winston is a bit shy and insecure at first, so he’ll need someone who understands that good things take time. With patience, gentle reassurance, and consistency, Winston truly blossoms. Once he trusts you, he becomes incredibly loyal and will happily stick by your side, following his person wherever they go. He does well with other well-mannered dogs and would enjoy canine companions who respect his space and calm nature. Because Winston can be sensitive, he would do best in a home with older children or no children, where things stay predictable and peaceful. Winston may take a little longer to warm up—but the reward is a devoted companion who will bond deeply and love wholeheartedly. If you’re looking for a loyal best friend and are willing to give him the time he needs, Winston could be your perfect match. ❤️

Meet Ranger! 🐾 Ranger is a 1-year-old male Chihuahua mix weighing under 5 lbs, and he’s packed full of love in a tiny body. This little guy has the softest fur you can imagine and an even softer heart to match. Ranger absolutely loves people and thrives on cuddles and affection. Being loved on is his favorite thing in the world! He gets along well with other dogs and would be a wonderful companion in a home with furry friends or as your one-and-only cuddle buddy. Small in size but huge in personality, Ranger has a big loving attitude and is ready to share it with his forever family. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate lap dog who just wants to be close to his humans, Ranger is your guy. 💙

I’m a gentle guy who loves attention, kisses, and being part of the action. I get along great with dogs, cats, and kids, and I’m always ready to make new friends.  I do especially well with the littles and am very patient with them.   I’m not a big barker, but if another dog starts up, I’ll happily join the chorus. I’m kennel trained, keep my space clean, and I’m working hard on my potty training—it’s coming along nicely when I’m on a good schedule. I am still learning about the leash, so until I figure that out I will need a fenced in yard where I can explore safely and do my business.   My favorite toys are squeaky ones, but don’t worry—I don’t destroy them, I just enjoy the sound. I’m affectionate, even-tempered, and gentle, and I love being talked to. I’m smart enough to know commands like “Kennel,” “Go Potty,” and even “Get Back” when the door is open. I’m the kind of dog who wants to be with people, whether we’re playing, walking, or just hanging out. I’ll do fine on my own if you’re busy, but I’ll be happiest in a home where I get plenty of love and attention. If you’re looking for a sweet, fluffy companion who will make you smile every day, I’m your guy. Love, Milo 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. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter’s expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue.

Looking for a dog with the confidence of a lion, the fluff of a cloud, and the charm of a seasoned heart-stealer? Meet PomPoms, a pint-sized Pomeranian with a personality that is anything but small. PomPoms is the total Pomeranian package: he’s bold, opinionated, and totally devoted once he’s decided you’re his person. He loves to go on adventures — whether that means hopping in the car for a joyride or trotting around the neighborhood like he owns it (spoiler alert: he thinks he does). He thrives on attention, makes friends easily with both humans and other dogs, and has a surprising amount of pep packed into his tiny frame. He’s also a top-tier napper and can often be found sunbathing like a celebrity on vacation. But don’t let that cute little face fool you — PomPoms knows what he wants and he’s not afraid to express himself. He has very clear opinions about a few things in life: The Vet — hard no. If PomPoms has to go, he’ll need his foster mom there to hold his paw (and maybe whisper sweet nothings or offer cheese). He gets anxious and needs reassurance from someone he trusts. Clothes — double no. He is perfect in his natural state, thank you very much. Being Heard — absolutely. If something doesn’t meet PomPoms’ high standards, he’ll let you know with a side-eye or a solid bark of disapproval. PomPoms is not just a dog — he’s a presence. He’s the type of pup who forms a deep bond with his person, makes you laugh daily with his dramatic antics, and somehow turns the most mundane part of your day into something warm, funny, and sweet. He’d do well in a home that understands little dogs with big personalities — a family who’ll let him be the fabulous little weirdo he is, while also helping him feel safe when the world feels scary (like, say… during vet visits). He’s housetrained, loves companionship, and does best with people who respect his boundaries while still giving him structure and snuggles. In return, PomPoms promises to be your tiny shadow, your co-pilot on errands, your sunbathing buddy, and the ruler of your heart (and probably your couch).
