French Bulldog puppies and dogs in Minneapolis, Minnesota

This sweet muffin had some rough years in her youth & wound up at animal control, pancaked to the floor. She was adopted by a wonderful couple w/several dogs to befriend, has been very loved (even a bit spoiled) revealing the adorably chonky, entitled short queen she is today. Unfortunately, it's time for her life's next chapter as she's decided she doesn't appreciate having any other pets steal her sunshine. This beautiful bulldog deserves to be the main attraction so we're looking for a second great home to ensure she's loved to bits in her golden years. She's quite the ham, loves everything from pets to pampering, might not be the fastest at playing fetch but she'll romp around happily with a toy & play a game of tug. Beefcake is very food motivated, ecstatic to sit for a treat & has legendary couch cuddle skills. If you have questions or are interested in meeting this rotund lovebug please reach out. You may have exactly the special place for this lovely lady is looking for!

Opal is both beautiful and sweet, but we have learned that the best home for her would be with a single woman with no other pets. Opal loves her human completely and she simply doesn’t want to share. She is extremely possessive. Not to the point where she bites but she growls and barks a lot and that does not make for a peaceful home life for anyone. Opal is fun and playful and affectionate with her person. She loves to go for walks and rides in the car and she’s good with other dogs as long as her person doesn’t want to love on them. Then she growls them away. Opal is spayed, UTD required vaccines and his heartworm negative. She is house trained, but might have an accident or two until she settles in. We just have to find that “right“ home for this precious girl. She would truly be someone’s very best friend.

My name is Winston, and I am a handsome guy with big, soulful brown eyes and the kind of eyelashes that make everyone swoon. I mean, if I had a dollar for every compliment on them, I’d be living in a mansion by now... but instead, I’m just looking for a forever home full of love! I’m a total love bug. My idea of a good time? Cuddling on the couch and lounging with my people. When I’m at home, I’m pretty mellow — I love to relax and take it easy with my humans, but I’m also ready for action if you bring out a bone or decide it’s belly rub time (my absolute favorite). I can be a bit of a stuffed toy destroyer though, so if you give me one, you’ll want to supervise me. I get carried away, and let’s be real, those squeaky things are just too fun to resist. When nobody’s looking, I may try to gobble up the remnants, but hey, I’m just a dog with big ambitions! Oh, and full disclosure — I’ve got a thing for eating poop. Yeah, I said it. But don’t worry! I’m getting better, thanks to some training and the magic of the “leave it” command. Still, it’s probably best you watch me during those poop breaks. I do require a fenced-in yard, but I also enjoy leisurely walks at the park. And while I know a few basic commands like sit, stay, and touch, I’m just waiting for the right family to help me hone my skills. One skill I don’t need help with is when I hear the word “treat”—I’m there faster than you can blink! At night, I’ll be your angel. I’m happy to quietly sleep in my bed, your bed, or even a crate (I’m flexible like that as long as I’m by you!). But I’m not a “crate dog” when you’re gone. It makes me anxious, so I prefer to have the run of the house when you're away. I basically just wait for you to return…can you blame me? Speaking of anxiety — I do have separation anxiety, so my new family should be prepared to work with me on this. My current family has been so amazing, helping me with some desensitization training, and I take some doggy Prozac, which has helped a lot! But here’s the thing: I’d prefer my people to be around most of the time. Are you a homebody? Do you work from home? Well, then we’re a match made in heaven. I’ll be the best coworker you’ve ever had, and I’ll always have your back! Trust takes me some time, dedication and patience, but once I feel safe, I’ll be your ride or die! My human(s) will need to separately spend one-on-one time with me so I can learn to trust them. And while I’m a bit protective of my home and can be vocal about new people, once the room settles down, I’m all about coexisting. Just, uh, please don’t try to pet me too soon. I’ll let you know when I’m ready. I’m also a quiet, chill guy at dog-friendly places like breweries and Bachmans. I love tagging along, but I’m more of a look, don’t touch kind of dog. I like to observe the fun, but I prefer not to be approached by strangers (unless they have a treat…I can be a brave boy, but ONLY for a treat!). I’ll put my full trust in you to be my #1 advocate. I can live with a cat (as long as they respect my space), but I LOVE dogs. In fact, I’d love to have a confident, playful dog companion at home. Playing is SO fun, and having a doggy friend makes me feel more secure when my people are away. So, what kind of home am I looking for? I need one that’s calm and consistent. A household without kids would be ideal, because I need a peaceful environment to thrive. And random, but when it comes to stairs, I’m good with a few steps, but not too many. I just want to feel secure, safe, and comfortable with my new family. A home with one, or two, adults who have a consistent schedule is my dream home - If you can provide that, I’ll be your world! *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.   In addition to normal pre adoption surgeries, Winston Churchill also had surgery on his nares and soft palate to improve the quality of his breathing. This is reflected within her adoption fee. 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 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.

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 Gaston!  This handsome man is just over two years old and shy of 30 pounds!  He is a little shy at first, but he is blossoming more and more each day.  He is showing himself to be the friendly, happy guy we know he is!  He really takes cues and learns from other dogs, so having another pup in the home is best for Mr Gaston to reach his full potential.  He watches the other dogs with things like toys and bones and with their continued guidance, those will be his favorite in no time.   Gaston has learned how to do stairs - thanks to the guidance of his fur siblings.  He is quiet in his kennel but has peed in it a few times when the humans were away.  He has gotten on a good schedule and his accidents are fewer and fewer  - also, thanks in part to his neuter!  He is still a bit unsure about being picked up and has not yet learned the joy of treats yet.  Once he figures out how tasty those are, and the trusting hands that give them, he will be a happy guy!  He loves to run in the fenced in backyard and due to his shier nature, a fenced in backyard would be ideal for Gaston.  Leash walking is in the very beginning stages, but with a confident dog, he'd likely master it in no time.  A home with older, respectful kids would be ideal for Gaston as loud noises are still a bit scary.  He has not yet met cats, but would likely do just fine with feline friends.   We see Gaston's future full of love and cuddles, he's just waiting for the perfect home to help him reach his full potential!

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.  Bonjour! Meet Lumiere! This handsome Frenchmen is great with other dogs! While he would love to have a canine companion, it's not required, but he'd kindly ask for time to romp with some in other areas - day care, training classes, outings, etc.  He loves to run in his fenced in yard at his foster home, but if you don't have one, he'll learn that leash training thing with you!  He's a pretty quite guy, but will whine/bark for a bit when he goes in his kennel. Shared walls would have to have tolerant neighbors while he continues his kennel training.   Lumiere has not yet met young kids, but due to his happy nature, he should do just fine - though we would want him to meet yours, should you have it!  Same for kitty cats - he'd very likely just want to play, but has not yet met any.  He is doing well with his potty training, on a schedule, but will need to perfect this in his forever home. Lumiere is a little instigator, he loves getting his foster fur siblings to play and is always the one to start the party.  He has a peaked interest in toys, but is still learning what exactly to do with those, but in no time, that will be part of his party regime, we just know it!  Due to his past life living in a kennel as a commercial stud breeder, he doesnt have a ton of experience being picked up - that concept is still a bit unusual to him, but with each day, he is realizing how fun humans are, along with holdy and cuddle time.  This boy is full of energy and all around exudes happiness to be here! Due to Lumiere's age, a basic obedience class is highly encouraged for male bulldogs who are rescued around one year of age* 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.

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 Hugo, the adorable Frenchie with a heart full of loyalty!  This sweet boy is an excellent companion who will wait patiently by the window for you to return, and once you're home, he loves nothing more than sleeping at your feet while you work or lounging next to you on the couch (though he's learned that the floor is comfy too!).  He would love it if you worked from home, or were home often, and makes a fabulous coworker during the day!  His favorite activities are wherever his people are.  He may even follow you into the shower just to see what you're up to in there.  Right now, he is alone 3-4 hours and hangs out in the living room with his foster fur siblings and patiently waits for his humans to return. Hugo is fully potty trained and would do best in a quieter home, especially one with older, calmer children who understand that Hugo can sometimes may need some space. He's a sensitive soul and will thrive in a home that can give him a calm, structured environment where he feels safe.  When the adults in the home are gone, he is happy to follow the older children around, but mainly waits for his "person" to come home. He’s also a perfect fit for someone who works from home, as he loves to be by your side throughout the day. Hugo enjoys his walks and loves running around the backyard, so if you’ve got a fenced-in yard, he’ll make the most of it. He also loves puppy chew toys and Himalayan chews - so keep a good supply handy! Now, if you're a family with chickens... those silly birds aren't a match for Hugo.  Aside from that, he's good with most dogs he's met of all sizes, but prefers those that are calmer and match his demeanor.  He's also good with his foster kitty in the home!  He’s a healthy, food-driven little guy who has attended obedience training and knows some basic commands like sit and lay down—just make sure to keep those treats coming for the best results! His ideal furever home would be in a place where the family is home frequently, or have another confident dog around that will bond with him, show him the ropes, and be his companion until you return. He would like a yard since that is where he likes going potty, if you happen to have one, but if not, he'll stick close by you on a leash!  He's a true velcro frenchie and cannot wait to meet 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.

This sweet muffin had some rough years in her youth & wound up at animal control, pancaked to the floor. She was adopted by a wonderful couple w/several dogs to befriend, has been very loved (even a bit spoiled) revealing the adorably chonky, entitled short queen she is today. Unfortunately, it's time for her life's next chapter as she's decided she doesn't appreciate having any other pets steal her sunshine. This beautiful bulldog deserves to be the main attraction so we're looking for a second great home to ensure she's loved to bits in her golden years. She's quite the ham, loves everything from pets to pampering, might not be the fastest at playing fetch but she'll romp around happily with a toy & play a game of tug. Beefcake is very food motivated, ecstatic to sit for a treat & has legendary couch cuddle skills. If you have questions or are interested in meeting this rotund lovebug please reach out. You may have exactly the special place for this lovely lady is looking for!

Opal is both beautiful and sweet, but we have learned that the best home for her would be with a single woman with no other pets. Opal loves her human completely and she simply doesn’t want to share. She is extremely possessive. Not to the point where she bites but she growls and barks a lot and that does not make for a peaceful home life for anyone. Opal is fun and playful and affectionate with her person. She loves to go for walks and rides in the car and she’s good with other dogs as long as her person doesn’t want to love on them. Then she growls them away. Opal is spayed, UTD required vaccines and his heartworm negative. She is house trained, but might have an accident or two until she settles in. We just have to find that “right“ home for this precious girl. She would truly be someone’s very best friend.

My name is Winston, and I am a handsome guy with big, soulful brown eyes and the kind of eyelashes that make everyone swoon. I mean, if I had a dollar for every compliment on them, I’d be living in a mansion by now... but instead, I’m just looking for a forever home full of love! I’m a total love bug. My idea of a good time? Cuddling on the couch and lounging with my people. When I’m at home, I’m pretty mellow — I love to relax and take it easy with my humans, but I’m also ready for action if you bring out a bone or decide it’s belly rub time (my absolute favorite). I can be a bit of a stuffed toy destroyer though, so if you give me one, you’ll want to supervise me. I get carried away, and let’s be real, those squeaky things are just too fun to resist. When nobody’s looking, I may try to gobble up the remnants, but hey, I’m just a dog with big ambitions! Oh, and full disclosure — I’ve got a thing for eating poop. Yeah, I said it. But don’t worry! I’m getting better, thanks to some training and the magic of the “leave it” command. Still, it’s probably best you watch me during those poop breaks. I do require a fenced-in yard, but I also enjoy leisurely walks at the park. And while I know a few basic commands like sit, stay, and touch, I’m just waiting for the right family to help me hone my skills. One skill I don’t need help with is when I hear the word “treat”—I’m there faster than you can blink! At night, I’ll be your angel. I’m happy to quietly sleep in my bed, your bed, or even a crate (I’m flexible like that as long as I’m by you!). But I’m not a “crate dog” when you’re gone. It makes me anxious, so I prefer to have the run of the house when you're away. I basically just wait for you to return…can you blame me? Speaking of anxiety — I do have separation anxiety, so my new family should be prepared to work with me on this. My current family has been so amazing, helping me with some desensitization training, and I take some doggy Prozac, which has helped a lot! But here’s the thing: I’d prefer my people to be around most of the time. Are you a homebody? Do you work from home? Well, then we’re a match made in heaven. I’ll be the best coworker you’ve ever had, and I’ll always have your back! Trust takes me some time, dedication and patience, but once I feel safe, I’ll be your ride or die! My human(s) will need to separately spend one-on-one time with me so I can learn to trust them. And while I’m a bit protective of my home and can be vocal about new people, once the room settles down, I’m all about coexisting. Just, uh, please don’t try to pet me too soon. I’ll let you know when I’m ready. I’m also a quiet, chill guy at dog-friendly places like breweries and Bachmans. I love tagging along, but I’m more of a look, don’t touch kind of dog. I like to observe the fun, but I prefer not to be approached by strangers (unless they have a treat…I can be a brave boy, but ONLY for a treat!). I’ll put my full trust in you to be my #1 advocate. I can live with a cat (as long as they respect my space), but I LOVE dogs. In fact, I’d love to have a confident, playful dog companion at home. Playing is SO fun, and having a doggy friend makes me feel more secure when my people are away. So, what kind of home am I looking for? I need one that’s calm and consistent. A household without kids would be ideal, because I need a peaceful environment to thrive. And random, but when it comes to stairs, I’m good with a few steps, but not too many. I just want to feel secure, safe, and comfortable with my new family. A home with one, or two, adults who have a consistent schedule is my dream home - If you can provide that, I’ll be your world! *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.   In addition to normal pre adoption surgeries, Winston Churchill also had surgery on his nares and soft palate to improve the quality of his breathing. This is reflected within her adoption fee. 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 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.

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.

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 Gaston!  This handsome man is just over two years old and shy of 30 pounds!  He is a little shy at first, but he is blossoming more and more each day.  He is showing himself to be the friendly, happy guy we know he is!  He really takes cues and learns from other dogs, so having another pup in the home is best for Mr Gaston to reach his full potential.  He watches the other dogs with things like toys and bones and with their continued guidance, those will be his favorite in no time.   Gaston has learned how to do stairs - thanks to the guidance of his fur siblings.  He is quiet in his kennel but has peed in it a few times when the humans were away.  He has gotten on a good schedule and his accidents are fewer and fewer  - also, thanks in part to his neuter!  He is still a bit unsure about being picked up and has not yet learned the joy of treats yet.  Once he figures out how tasty those are, and the trusting hands that give them, he will be a happy guy!  He loves to run in the fenced in backyard and due to his shier nature, a fenced in backyard would be ideal for Gaston.  Leash walking is in the very beginning stages, but with a confident dog, he'd likely master it in no time.  A home with older, respectful kids would be ideal for Gaston as loud noises are still a bit scary.  He has not yet met cats, but would likely do just fine with feline friends.   We see Gaston's future full of love and cuddles, he's just waiting for the perfect home to help him reach his full potential!

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.  Bonjour! Meet Lumiere! This handsome Frenchmen is great with other dogs! While he would love to have a canine companion, it's not required, but he'd kindly ask for time to romp with some in other areas - day care, training classes, outings, etc.  He loves to run in his fenced in yard at his foster home, but if you don't have one, he'll learn that leash training thing with you!  He's a pretty quite guy, but will whine/bark for a bit when he goes in his kennel. Shared walls would have to have tolerant neighbors while he continues his kennel training.   Lumiere has not yet met young kids, but due to his happy nature, he should do just fine - though we would want him to meet yours, should you have it!  Same for kitty cats - he'd very likely just want to play, but has not yet met any.  He is doing well with his potty training, on a schedule, but will need to perfect this in his forever home. Lumiere is a little instigator, he loves getting his foster fur siblings to play and is always the one to start the party.  He has a peaked interest in toys, but is still learning what exactly to do with those, but in no time, that will be part of his party regime, we just know it!  Due to his past life living in a kennel as a commercial stud breeder, he doesnt have a ton of experience being picked up - that concept is still a bit unusual to him, but with each day, he is realizing how fun humans are, along with holdy and cuddle time.  This boy is full of energy and all around exudes happiness to be here! Due to Lumiere's age, a basic obedience class is highly encouraged for male bulldogs who are rescued around one year of age* 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.

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 Hugo, the adorable Frenchie with a heart full of loyalty!  This sweet boy is an excellent companion who will wait patiently by the window for you to return, and once you're home, he loves nothing more than sleeping at your feet while you work or lounging next to you on the couch (though he's learned that the floor is comfy too!).  He would love it if you worked from home, or were home often, and makes a fabulous coworker during the day!  His favorite activities are wherever his people are.  He may even follow you into the shower just to see what you're up to in there.  Right now, he is alone 3-4 hours and hangs out in the living room with his foster fur siblings and patiently waits for his humans to return. Hugo is fully potty trained and would do best in a quieter home, especially one with older, calmer children who understand that Hugo can sometimes may need some space. He's a sensitive soul and will thrive in a home that can give him a calm, structured environment where he feels safe.  When the adults in the home are gone, he is happy to follow the older children around, but mainly waits for his "person" to come home. He’s also a perfect fit for someone who works from home, as he loves to be by your side throughout the day. Hugo enjoys his walks and loves running around the backyard, so if you’ve got a fenced-in yard, he’ll make the most of it. He also loves puppy chew toys and Himalayan chews - so keep a good supply handy! Now, if you're a family with chickens... those silly birds aren't a match for Hugo.  Aside from that, he's good with most dogs he's met of all sizes, but prefers those that are calmer and match his demeanor.  He's also good with his foster kitty in the home!  He’s a healthy, food-driven little guy who has attended obedience training and knows some basic commands like sit and lay down—just make sure to keep those treats coming for the best results! His ideal furever home would be in a place where the family is home frequently, or have another confident dog around that will bond with him, show him the ropes, and be his companion until you return. He would like a yard since that is where he likes going potty, if you happen to have one, but if not, he'll stick close by you on a leash!  He's a true velcro frenchie and cannot wait to meet 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.

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 Bell, a 7-year-old, 50-pound English Bulldog with a big heart and an even bigger personality! I’m a sweet girl who loves nothing more than lounging at home and playing fetch or keep-away with my favorite balls. I may be a bit older, but I’m still full of energy and love to stay active!  In fact, I've been working with a trainer and its's recommended a daily walk (outside Or on the treadmill!) for mental stimulation. I’m totally potty trained and do well with crate time, though sometimes I’ll bark if I don’t get my way. I also need daily eye drops, but I’m good about taking them. I prefer a quieter, adult-only home since busy places and small kids make me nervous. I do best as an only dog so I can get all your attention. We can Netflix and chill on the couch and I promise to be your bestest friend and loyal companion. Foster mom says I’ll keep you laughing all day long with my bulldog antics and hey, we can check out the world.  I am leash trained and like to go for short walks. Listen, I may not be the fastest or most fit, but I can keep up! At home, I’m super affectionate with the adults I trust, and I love snuggling on the couch—yep, I’m a big lap dog! I’m happy going on leash walks for potty breaks and exercise, so I don’t need a fenced yard. If you’re looking for a special Bulldog who just wants to be your best friend and play fetch, I’m your girl! *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.

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.  Keep checking back for upcoming events I will be attending!       Ready to add a little extra flavor to your life? Meet Pickles, a one-of-a-kind English Bulldog–Cocker Spaniel mix with the soul of a couch potato and the curiosity of a squirrel! At just under 6 months old and weighing in at a huggable 13 pounds, Pickles is equal parts snugglebug and wrestling champ.  Pickles was rescued from a backyard breeder in TX, and yes, this is the mix that his parents were! When he's not perfecting his chew toy collection (ropes, bones, squeakies—he’s not picky!), Pickles enjoys gazing dramatically out the window like he's starring in his own soap opera. He's got that perfect puppy mix of play-hard-nap-harder energy, and while he’s still learning the ropes of potty training, this smarty pants already knows the crate is a great place for a midday snooze. Gentle with his foster siblings, curious about the world, and adorably awkward on a leash, Pickles is a total sweetheart who's happy to play with a doggy buddy—or soak up all your attention himself. Bonus: he’s an A+ cuddle buddy who will happily keep your lap warm during chilly movie nights. If you’re looking for a goofy, loving, and endlessly entertaining companion, Pickles is your guy. Warning: side effects may include spontaneous laughter, excessive tail wags, and being smitten for life. **Obedience classes are required when adopting this puppy from Underdog Rescue. Many of our puppies have a mama who was not properly socialized before coming to Underdog Rescue. Since coming to Underdog, this puppy has been in a socialized and loving home, but that needs to be continued with its Adopters. Training classes teach puppies the ins and outs of being a pet while creating a bond with their new Adopter. Obedience classes are key to creating a relationship with your puppy while having it be a happy and successful member of society. Proof of Obedience Class registration is required for this puppy before adoptions can be finalized. If you would like some suggestions, we would be happy to send some trainers who have experience with Underdog Rescue, but a Basic Obedience class in your area should work!

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. Puppy 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 puppy. Our goal is place puppies 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 puppy, we will not approve your application. We accept applications for puppies until we have a candidate that meets all of the requirements needed for the specific puppy and they have been contacted to review the adoption process as well as agree to all of the terms to move forward. ***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.
