Hi there, I'm Samwise, a little ball of energy and curiosity. I love to explore and am always ready for a new adventure. I'm brave, too! Nothing much scares me. I'm also a bit of a goofball and love to play around. I'm quite independent and like to do things my way. Among my siblings, I'm the bossy one. But hey, someone's got to be in charge, right? I'm looking for a forever home where I can run, play, and satisfy my curiosity. If you're looking for a fun, energetic, and independent companion, I'm your pup!

Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.    Hello everyone, my name is Russet.  I am a very tiny 5 lb. Maltese boy about one year old.  I am lots of fun with my random bursts of happy energy but I am also content to hang out with my person all day. One of my favorite things is to play with small tennis balls.  I am great with other dogs of all sizes and with respectful children.  I’m working on potty training but I’m pretty smart so I know I’ll pick it up with some gentle help and a good schedule.  My leash training is coming along so I won’t need a fenced yard to go potty.  Sometimes I freeze when I’m on a leash because I’m not quite used to it yet but I am getting there. I kindly request another dog in the home to keep me company because I get really sad and lonely when my humans leave me. I just can't help but voice my discontent when I'm left alone! I have a lot to say, so  I also bark when I want someone to pick me up or when I'm crated.  Shared walls aren't a good idea for me. I know how to sit when asked.  I’ve never been around kitties but I bet it would be OK because I am such a sweet and laid-back little guy.  My foster mom says I am a super sweet little fella.  I sure would love to have a home of my very own and a family to cuddle up with. 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.

Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.    Cove is a 9-pound pocket of fluff and gentle soul wrapped into one precious Maltese package. At 4 years old, she’s learning the ropes of indoor life and discovering that humans, soft toys, and cozy laps might just be the best things ever. While she’s still a bit shy about being picked up, once she's in your arms, she completely melts—like a marshmallow that finally found its hot cocoa. Cove is quiet, kind, and as low drama as a Hallmark movie. She’s happiest when snuggled next to another dog (seriously, she needs a doggy buddy to show her the ropes), and she’s already mastering the art of “go outside” and “come back in for treats.” Cove isn’t leash-trained yet, and sudden chaos or commotion can startle her, so she’ll need a calm, patient home with a fenced yard and gentle routines. She's crate trained, still a work in progress for house-training, and well on her way to becoming a pro-level lap dog. This girl has made amazing progress, and her foster family can’t stop gushing about her sweet nature and adorable little face. If you’re looking for a quiet companion with a soft heart and even softer fur, Cove may be your perfect match.

Goldie is the most loving, cuddly dog that loves anyone and everyone including big and small dogs. She is not skiddish at all, goes to everyone. She was a litter of 7 from a family that got 2 new dogs during Covid and could not fix them so Goldie was born at the tail end of Covid. She is 3 years old and weighs about 8-10 lbs. I am heart broken at the thought of letting her go because she is so loved since she was born and I’ve been with her since she was 9 weeks old. She grew up with other dogs including my older dog, MJ-they get along so much and play hard. I don’t know what this separation will do to MJ. She is also close to her parents who live on Brooklyn p Park as well as one of her brother even though he tries to hump her and she doesn’t like that lol.I am letting her go to a good family that will love her and treat her right no matter what. I work so much and if I am gome more than 8 hours she gets antsy and gets in trouble like look for food. Doesn’t chew shoes etc.she needs p
