Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Thank you for stopping by to see me! Please fill out an application to set up a private meeting. Meet Lemon the Cockapoo! Lemon is a sweet, friendly, and fun-loving girl who loves being around people and other dogs! She has a big heart and an even bigger love for her people. Whether she’s snuggled up beside you, stretched across your lap for some extra cuddles, or playing in the yard, Lemon is happiest when she’s near her favorite humans. Lemon is an active girl who enjoys walks of 1–2 miles and exploring the great outdoors. She may pull a little at the beginning of a walk, but she settles into a nice pace once she gets going. She can also get overexcited when passing people and other dogs, sometimes barking and pulling on her leash. She seems eager to say hello to everyone! With patience, guidance, and continued training, she can work on making those encounters calmer and more manageable. At home, Lemon likes to keep an eye on things. She may bark out the window at people passing by or alert you to squirrels in the yard. Speaking of squirrels, Lemon loves a good backyard adventure! She enjoys running around, chasing squirrels and bunnies, and sniffing out all the interesting scents they leave behind. Because she has a strong prey drive, a home without small animals like cats, rabbits, or birds would likely be the best fit. Lemon enjoys the company of other dogs but is confident enough to be the only dog in the home, too. She hasn’t been around young children, but her friendly, people-loving nature is a wonderful quality. A thoughtful introduction to any children in her future home would be best. Treats, bully sticks, toys, outdoor adventures, and quality time with her people are some of Lemon’s favorite things. She can be a snuggly lap dog one moment and happily lounge nearby the next. She has the perfect mix of playful energy and affectionate companionship. Lemon is a truly lovely girl with so much love to give. Whoever welcomes this sweet girl into their family will be very lucky to have her! â¤ï¸ 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. 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. ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there*** Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.If you have other questions about me you can email Underdog Rescue at <inquiries@underdogrescuemn.com> ADOPTION EVENTS: Adoption events are updated at the top of each dogs animals' as their foster home signs up. Check back for updates on which events they will be attending. If an event is not listed within their bio above, the animal is not planning to attend. 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. We recommend filling out an application and we will set 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: http://www.underdogrescuemn.com/adoptionprocess/ 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, but each bio is written by the foster as they see them, in their home. Each animal's behavior is evaluated and we have a sense of its temperament and personality, but it cannot be guaranteed. We look for adopters who will give each animal the wonderful life and permanent home that he or she deserves in time and with patience. 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. YOU CAN HELP: Not able to foster or adopt right now? Please consider sponsoring an Underdog.
