Dachshund puppies and dogs in Minnesota

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.  Come and meet me at an Adoption Event!! I will be at Chuck & Don's Forest Lake 1960 W Broadway Ave Building 2, Forest Lake, MN 55025 on Saturday, June 28th 12:00-2:00 pm . I will be on the outdoor patio ready to meet you. Please email inquiries@underdogrescuemn.com for questions regarding the dogs. Pearla is a sweet and spunky 3-year-old Chiweenie weighing in at about 18 pounds. She’s adjusting beautifully in her foster home and is ready to find a forever family who will appreciate her playful nature and adventurous spirit. Pearla absolutely loves her toys and is happiest when she has something appropriate to chew on. She’s a curious girl who gets excited about walks, greeting her people when they come home, and exploring new places. She thrives with activity and stimulation, so she would do best in a home that can give her regular opportunities to play, explore, and stay engaged. She’s fully potty trained and does her business outside like a pro. Pearla is also good with children under 12 and shows respectful behavior around cats. She enjoys the company of other dogs and will need to be placed in a home with a canine companion to help her feel secure and supported. Pearla can be a little overwhelmed by loud or chaotic environments and tends to bark at strangers outside the home, but she’s making great progress as she settles in. While she’s still a work in progress on the leash, she’s improving every day and enjoys her outdoor time, especially in a fenced yard where she can move freely. This charming little dog has a lot of love to give and will thrive in a home where she’s included in daily life and given the outlets she needs to stay active and happy. She is a loyal, joyful companion who’s ready to meet her perfect match. 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.

Located in Tennessee but can be transported to you through Rescue Riders. This girl was brought in with babies when her owner couldn't take care of her. She was not socialized very well so will need some work. She will need a very patient person to get her to come out of her shell. She was kept outside so she has no house manners, nor has she been with cats. She does do well with dogs her size and seems to like to play with them. She deserves a new chance to be a loved dog and companion. She will take a lot of time and investment but deserves a chance!

Our mama is Snowdrop, and she’s a petite girl around 20–25 lbs. We are sweet, happy, playful little white bundles of joy!

We are great with other dogs, kids, and people of all ages. After a good play session, we turn into total cuddle bugs and love to snuggle right into your arms. We’re ready to bring lots of love, laughter, and puppy fun to our forever homes! Local adoption fee is $350(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $600 (includes transport to your area)

Well, hello there! The name’s Dilbert aka Dill, Dilly bar, Dill pickle. I am an older, distinguished gentleman looking to find a retirement home! Let me tell you a bit about myself to find my perfect, forever home. This feels a bit strange for me to say about myself, but my foster parents insisted I start off strong with this so here we go… I am literal perfection. Yup. I said it! I am sweeter than pie, I love to snuggle, I am potty trained, they have never heard me bark and I am good with the other dogs here! They joke that I live for two things: cuddling and begging for human food. I know, I know. It’s a bad habit and I know I shouldn’t do it, but boy have I perfected it! Level: expert. Foster mom jokes that my puppy dog eyes, and my sad little noises make her want to give me the entire meal she’s eating. She doesn’t, to my dismay, but every once in awhile she sneaks me a little bite. *evil laugh* Saying that I love to snuggle may be the understatement of the century. It’s my happy place and I will follow you anywhere you go to be with you. You’re in bed? Perfect, I’ll lay right next to you. Preferably under the blankets. You’re sitting on the couch? Perfect, I’ll lay right next to you. Again, preferably you have a blanket. I just want to be in your lap or snuggling next to you. I truly could spend the rest of my days happy just doing that! If you don’t allow your dog on the couch or in the bed, I’m probably not the right fit for you because that would be devastating for my old man self. I overhear my foster parents constantly talk about how much they wish they could keep me. They swear if they could, they would! My foster mom is pretty much obsessed with me. She’s always talking about my cute, stubby legs, smooching me a million times a day and laughing when I prance around the house- ears bopping along. I am on a prescription kidney diet and a med because my kidney values were high when I arrived in rescue. The values have improved with these things so they will be important to continue for me moving forward! I just wanted to mention that because that does add a little thought into considering my adoption. I don’t need much besides a good place to nap, some treats and lots of love. I’m a simple guy that enjoys the finer things in life. If you’re looking for a low maintenance gentleman that has perfected napping next to his human, look no further!

Freddy is a high-energy, happy-go-lucky boy who is great with dogs and kids! He loves to do big zoomies in a circle, then race right back to you for cuddles.

If you’re on the couch, expect him to curl right into your back and soak up the love. Freddy is a joyful, affectionate boy who is absolutely ready to find his forever home. If you want it shorter or extra playful, I can tweak the tone too Local adoption fee is $200(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)
