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 Scooter, a quirky, snuggly little goofball with a big personality and an even bigger heart! This French Bulldog mix is full of love, energy, and opinions. At about 30 pounds, he's the perfect size for lap cuddles—which just happen to be one of his favorite things in the world. Belly rubs? Yes, please. Ice cubes? Delicious. Chasing the hose? Pure joy. He’s got a playful streak a mile wide and adores games like tug-of-war, keep-away, and wrestling with trusted dog friends. But let’s be real—Scooter is not your average, easygoing pup. He’s had a rough go somewhere along the line, and he’s working hard to feel safe in the world. He has a few non-negotiables: he needs time to build trust, doesn’t like chaos, and absolutely does not want anyone messing with his ears unless you're in the inner circle. Men make him nervous, and he's not a fan of being left alone too long. Scooter is also very food-motivated—which can be both a training superpower and a trigger for resource guarding, especially around other dogs.  Scooter does best being fed in a separate area, if dogs reside in the home.   Scooter can and will lunge or bite if he feels overwhelmed or scared. He’s made huge progress in foster care, but he needs a calm, confident human who will continue that journey with patience, structure, and maybe even a good trainer in their corner. He’s not crate-trained (he finds crates stressful), and he’s not suited for homes with kids or lots of commotion. A fenced yard is a must—he needs space to run and decompress. Here’s the flip side: once you’re “his person,” Scooter will love you with his whole goofy heart. He’s affectionate, loyal, and eager to please. He’s smart and knows commands like sit, down, leave it, and “go potty.” He’s house-trained and walks well on leash. He loves toys, attention, and being part of the action—as long as it’s not too much action. Scooter isn’t for everyone, but if you’re someone who sees the beauty in helping a misunderstood dog bloom, Scooter might be your perfect project-turned-best-friend. He’ll make you laugh, keep you company, and love you fiercely. And that, friends, is a pretty special kind of magic. 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.  Bulldogs are a member of the Brachycephalic breed and therefore have a host of health issues that may arise.  Because these dogs are new into our rescue, health issues in the future may arise that we are not aware of.  Some of these issues are allergies, eye issues, yeast infections, interdigital cysts, slipped disks in their back, breathing problems, among a host of others that can occur at any time or when seasons change. While breed experience is not required, we encourage you to thoroughly research the breed and its financial, medical, and environmental needs to be sure the breed is a good fit for you and your family.  It is estimated that the average bulldog owner spends $2,000 per year on medical needs. Bulldogs are one of the most expensive dogs to own, maintain, and rescue and our adoption fees reflect such expenses.  The application process for bulldogs usually moves quite quickly as they are a popular breed, so we ask that adopters do research and be prepared for adoption at the time you submit your application.  They are happy, goofy, playful characters and we are excited you are taking the first steps into rescuing one!   This dog requires an application fee.  This fee must be paid within 24 hours or your application will be considered void.    We will not review or contact applicants that have not completed the payment portion. Bulldog Applications will be responded to within 5 business days, after receipt of the application fee.  Please understand that paying the fee does not guarantee you will be approved to adopt the bulldog.

Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.    Hi, I’m Brussels, a quirky little cuddle bug! I’m an almost 2-year-old male French Bulldog, weighing in at a compact 20 pounds. I might be small, but I’ve got a big, silly personality waiting to shine once I feel comfortable with my people.  I am a little ball of energy, and I love everyone I meet.  I am playful and curious, and I LOVE balls—like seriously love.  They are my absolute favorite—and I’m always up for a game of fetch. I hope your throwing arm is ready!!  So long as I have options around, I keep myself busy and don't get in too much trouble.  Ropes and bones are great too.  One thing I should share is that my tummy has issues.  The dogtor says I have IBS.  I don't really know what that means, but I do know that I need to be kept very strictly on a specific prescription food, and I cannot have any doggo treats or hooman food-like none at all.  So long as I am kept only on my prescribed food I do well.  But, if I have anything other than that, we will both be sorry!  My poor belly just does not work with other food or teats, and you and I both will be in icky poo situations which is no fun.   I’m still learning the ropes of potty training and crate time. Right now, I make sure you know how I feel when I’m in my crate (loudly!) and sometimes have accidents in it, so I’ll need a patient family to help me keep learning.  Because of my wide-set eyes and strabismus (cross eyed), my vision isn’t the best.  But I just take it at my own pace, and I do just fine.  I have even learned how to do stairs!  Isn't that pawmazing???   While I do love other doggos, I tend to look at kitties as moving snacks so it's probably best for us both if my furever home does not have any kitties.   But since I love other doggos I am really hoping to find a brother or sister to be around.  I feel much braver and happier with a furry friend around so that's my hope.  If you hoomans are home all the time I could possibly be your one and only too.   Overwhelming commotion can also scare me, so I’ll thrive in a calm and structured environment. A fenced yard is a must since I’m not leash-trained yet and can be a bit of a flight risk when I feel scared.     I’m still learning to seek affection, but I’ve started to enjoy snuggling with my person on the couch or floor. My fur is SO soft—you’ll definitely want to cuddle me once I’m ready!   If you have patience, love, and a dog friend for me to bond with, I promise to be your sweetest, quirkiest little companion. Let’s meet soon—I’m ready to share my unique charm with you! *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.

Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.    Introducing Mousse — a delightfully squishy French Bulldog with a heart as sweet as his name! This handsome fellow is equal parts snuggle buddy, walking companion, and professional house observer (he likes to keep an eye on everything you’re doing… just in case you need help). Mousse is a friendly, happy guy who loves to be part of the family action. He’s affectionate, goofy, and asks for plenty of pets — and yes, he enjoys being picked up like the little loaf of love he is. When his humans come home, he puts on a full-blown welcome parade complete with wiggles, tail wags, and excited barks to make sure you know just how thrilled he is to see you. He’s house-trained, crate-trained, and has solid manners — though he’s also smart enough to test if you really mean “leave it.” He enjoys walks (using a Frenchie-approved harness, of course), car rides, and has recently discovered the joy of toys now that he can breathe easier after surgery. His absolute favorite thing is spending time with his people — he just wants to be included in whatever you’re doing. Mousse gets along with some dogs, but he's a choosy fellow - not just anyone can be in his friend club! Due to his selectivity, Mousse would be best as an only dog where he can have all the lovins to himself.  He’s currently trying to sort out some itchy-skin mysteries, but that doesn’t slow him down one bit. Because he’s a Frenchie, he’s heat sensitive, so air conditioning and comfy lounging spots are a must. This sweet, snorty little gentleman is apartment appropriate, easy to love, and ready to bring joy and laughter to his forever home. Keep his name — he’s quite proud of it — and get ready for endless affection, silly antics, and a loyal best friend who will never let you forget how special you are. 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.

So, there i was, minding my own business when SUDDENLY.... I was saved :) Now, ok, that is kind of the "cliff notes" version of my week ;) So, lets just say.... I was sick and scared and my owner reached out to the rescue to help me get to feel better, and I AM!! You see, I had a very infected uterus, if you ask the rescue people they will show you how bad it was ;( My owner was so scared that I would die, so he asked the rescue peeps (who LOVE frenchies, btw) and THAT is how i ended up here!! I am a sweet and cuddly girl, if you like VELCrO I am a cuter version of VELCRO that you have ever seen! I am about 4 yrs old, svelte and cute and loving my puppy free life! I am great with other dogs, all people and my foster mom is fostering a kitten too- I am pretty focused on the kitty so we think no kitties or prey animals for me! I am ready to grace your couch and your heart with my LOVE and I hope you are too! Local adoption fee is $500 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $800 (includes transport to your area)

But let’s be real—Scooter is not your average, easygoing pup. He’s had a rough go somewhere along the line, and he’s working hard to feel safe in the world. He has a few non-negotiables: he needs time to build trust, doesn’t like chaos, and absolutely does not want anyone messing with his ears unless you're in the inner circle. Men make him nervous, and he's not a fan of being left alone too long. Scooter is also very food-motivated—which can be both a training superpower and a trigger for resource guarding, especially around other dogs.  Scooter does best being fed in a separate area, if dogs reside in the home.   Scooter can and will lunge or bite if he feels overwhelmed or scared. He’s made huge progress in foster care, but he needs a calm, confident human who will continue that journey with patience, structure, and maybe even a good trainer in their corner. He’s not crate-trained (he finds crates stressful), and he’s not suited for homes with kids or lots of commotion. A fenced yard is a must—he needs space to run and decompress. Here’s the flip side: once you’re “his person,” Scooter will love you with his whole goofy heart. He’s affectionate, loyal, and eager to please. He’s smart and knows commands like sit, down, leave it, and “go potty.” He’s house-trained and walks well on leash. He loves toys, attention, and being part of the action—as long as it’s not too much action. Scooter isn’t for everyone, but if you’re someone who sees the beauty in helping a misunderstood dog bloom, Scooter might be your perfect project-turned-best-friend.

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.    Hi, I’m Brussels, a quirky little cuddle bug! I’m an almost 2-year-old male French Bulldog, weighing in at a compact 20 pounds. I might be small, but I’ve got a big, silly personality waiting to shine once I feel comfortable with my people.  I am a little ball of energy, and I love everyone I meet.  I am playful and curious, and I LOVE balls—like seriously love.  They are my absolute favorite—and I’m always up for a game of fetch. I hope your throwing arm is ready!!  So long as I have options around, I keep myself busy and don't get in too much trouble.  Ropes and bones are great too.  One thing I should share is that my tummy has issues.  The dogtor says I have IBS.  I don't really know what that means, but I do know that I need to be kept very strictly on a specific prescription food, and I cannot have any doggo treats or hooman food-like none at all.  So long as I am kept only on my prescribed food I do well.  But, if I have anything other than that, we will both be sorry!  My poor belly just does not work with other food or teats, and you and I both will be in icky poo situations which is no fun.   I’m still learning the ropes of potty training and crate time. Right now, I make sure you know how I feel when I’m in my crate (loudly!) and sometimes have accidents in it, so I’ll need a patient family to help me keep learning.  Because of my wide-set eyes and strabismus (cross eyed), my vision isn’t the best.  But I just take it at my own pace, and I do just fine.  I have even learned how to do stairs!  Isn't that pawmazing???   While I do love other doggos, I tend to look at kitties as moving snacks so it's probably best for us both if my furever home does not have any kitties.   But since I love other doggos I am really hoping to find a brother or sister to be around.  I feel much braver and happier with a furry friend around so that's my hope.  If you hoomans are home all the time I could possibly be your one and only too.   Overwhelming commotion can also scare me, so I’ll thrive in a calm and structured environment. A fenced yard is a must since I’m not leash-trained yet and can be a bit of a flight risk when I feel scared.     I’m still learning to seek affection, but I’ve started to enjoy snuggling with my person on the couch or floor. My fur is SO soft—you’ll definitely want to cuddle me once I’m ready!   If you have patience, love, and a dog friend for me to bond with, I promise to be your sweetest, quirkiest little companion. Let’s meet soon—I’m ready to share my unique charm with you! *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. Bulldogs are a member of the Brachycephalic breed and therefore have a host of health issues that may arise.  Because these dogs are new into our rescue, health issues in the future may arise that we are not aware of.  Some of these issues are allergies, eye issues, yeast infections, interdigital cysts, slipped disks in their back, breathing problems, among a host of others that can occur at any time or when seasons change. While breed experience is not required, we encourage you to thoroughly research the breed and its financial, medical, and environmental needs to be sure the breed is a good fit for you and your family.  It is estimated that the average bulldog owner spends $2,000 per year on medical needs. Brussels should have his breathing evaluated between 18-24 months to see if he needs nares and soft palate surgery. This will be at the adopter's expense, if needed, when full grown. It is estimated that 80% of bulldogs require this surgery. Bulldogs are one of the most expensive dogs to own, maintain, and rescue and our adoption fees reflect such expenses.  The application process for bulldogs usually moves quite quickly as they are a popular breed, so we ask that adopters do research and be prepared for adoption at the time you submit your application.  They are happy, goofy, playful characters and we are excited you are taking the first steps into rescuing one!   This dog requires an application fee.  This fee must be paid within 24 hours, or your application will be considered void.    We will not review or contact applicants that have not completed the payment portion. Bulldog Applications will be responded to within 5 business days, after receipt of the application fee.  Please understand that paying the fee does not guarantee you will be approved to adopt the bulldog. Our goal is to place bulldogs in homes that are suited for their individual needs. You may be willing and able to provide a great home, but if it doesn’t meet the specific needs of the bulldog, we will not approve your application.     ***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.

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.    Introducing Mousse — a delightfully squishy French Bulldog with a heart as sweet as his name! This handsome fellow is equal parts snuggle buddy, walking companion, and professional house observer (he likes to keep an eye on everything you’re doing… just in case you need help). Mousse is a friendly, happy guy who loves to be part of the family action. He’s affectionate, goofy, and asks for plenty of pets — and yes, he enjoys being picked up like the little loaf of love he is. When his humans come home, he puts on a full-blown welcome parade complete with wiggles, tail wags, and excited barks to make sure you know just how thrilled he is to see you. He’s house-trained, crate-trained, and has solid manners — though he’s also smart enough to test if you really mean “leave it.” He enjoys walks (using a Frenchie-approved harness, of course), car rides, and has recently discovered the joy of toys now that he can breathe easier after surgery. His absolute favorite thing is spending time with his people — he just wants to be included in whatever you’re doing. Mousse gets along with some dogs, but he's a choosy fellow - not just anyone can be in his friend club! Due to his selectivity, Mousse would be best as an only dog where he can have all the lovins to himself.  He’s currently trying to sort out some itchy-skin mysteries, but that doesn’t slow him down one bit. Because he’s a Frenchie, he’s heat sensitive, so air conditioning and comfy lounging spots are a must. This sweet, snorty little gentleman is apartment appropriate, easy to love, and ready to bring joy and laughter to his forever home. Keep his name — he’s quite proud of it — and get ready for endless affection, silly antics, and a loyal best friend who will never let you forget how special you are.

So, there i was, minding my own business when SUDDENLY.... I was saved :) Now, ok, that is kind of the "cliff notes" version of my week ;) So, lets just say.... I was sick and scared and my owner reached out to the rescue to help me get to feel better, and I AM!! You see, I had a very infected uterus, if you ask the rescue people they will show you how bad it was ;( My owner was so scared that I would die, so he asked the rescue peeps (who LOVE frenchies, btw) and THAT is how i ended up here!! I am a sweet and cuddly girl, if you like VELCrO I am a cuter version of VELCRO that you have ever seen! I am about 4 yrs old, svelte and cute and loving my puppy free life! I am great with other dogs, all people and my foster mom is fostering a kitten too- I am pretty focused on the kitty so we think no kitties or prey animals for me! I am ready to grace your couch and your heart with my LOVE and I hope you are too! Local adoption fee is $500 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $800 (includes transport to your area)

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi, I’m Mabel — an 8-year-old French Bulldog with a big heart, a round little body, and an even rounder love for my people. I came from a breeder, and I’m learning what it means to be part of a family. Every day brings something new — the joy of sniffing around the neighborhood on walks, the discovery that toys can be fun, and the wonderful feeling of curling up next to someone I trust. My foster family calls me a “velcro dog” because I’m happiest when I’m right by your side. If you move from the couch to the kitchen, I’m right there with you. I’m still working on my potty training and crate training, but I’m a quick study and just need a patient, loving guide to help me along. I have a big, confident personality and like to be the one in charge. I do fine with cats, but when it comes to other dogs, I’d really prefer to be the only pup in the home. With patience and the right training, I might learn to share my space with a calm, easygoing dog, but I’ll always shine brightest as your "one-and-only.” I have some ongoing allergy issues that may mean lifelong medication, but they don’t slow me down or stop me from soaking up every bit of love and attention I can get. If you’re looking for a loyal, snuggly companion who will make sure you’re never lonely and will always be your shadow, I’m your girl. I can’t wait to find my forever home.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Interested in adopting this lovable animal? Please go to our website www.wagsmn.org and fill out an Adoption Application.  Once the application is processed, a Wags representative will contact you, answer any questions you may have, and set up a time/location for a meet and greet!  A home visit is required prior to adoption.  Thank you for choosing to adopt!

🩷 Meet Junia! 🩷 8.5 months old | 13 lbs | Pug Mix House Trained | Crate Trained | Good with Dogs & Cats Junia is a sweet, playful little pup who wins everyone over with her adorable underbite — people often say she looks like a mini boxer! At home, she’s a curious companion who loves to follow her person from room to room, making sure she’s part of whatever’s going on. Once Junia feels comfortable, she turns into a total cuddlebug! She gives gentle kisses, loves sitting in laps, and adores morning snuggles on the bed. She’s also become an excellent walking buddy — walks are one of her favorite activities, and she trots along proudly beside you. Because she was under-socialized before rescue, Junia can still startle easily and may bark at strangers or new situations. She isn’t fearful — she just needs a bit of patience and reassurance to build trust. Once she does, her silly, affectionate personality shines through. Junia gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes and does great with cats too! She enjoys playing chase and wrestling with her big dog friends, and even engages with her foster’s playful cat (but wisely gives space to the grumpy one). When no one’s up for playtime, she happily entertains herself with toys or zooms around before curling up for a long nap. Junia would thrive in a loving home with another friendly dog or a patient adopter who can help her continue to build confidence. She’s the perfect blend of sweet, silly, and snuggly — a wonderful companion ready to bring joy to her forever family! 🐾 Adopt Junia today and let this little pug mix steal your heart! *Not available for transport out of state. Must be adopted locally to the San Antonio, TX area.
