Maltese puppies and dogs in Rogers, Minnesota

Hi! My name is Nina, I am from Minnesota. From the foster: Nina is a 12-year-old Maltese. She is a sweet, cuddly dog. She loves to be on a lap. She frequently checks on her bonded dog, Ella. Nina enjoys being outside. She would need a fenced yard or a tie-out. She travels well and enjoys going on visits with me. One of my dogs has been reactive toward Nina and her bonded dog. If she was in a home without a reactive dog, she may come out of her shell more.

Hello! I am Ella and I am from Minnesota. From the foster: Ella is a sweet little girl. She likes to cuddle. She sleeps much of the day. She is good at letting me know when she wants to go outside. Because Ella is 14, she has some vision problems. She does better in bright light. She is also a bit hard of hearing. When I call, she has to move her head around to pick up the direction of my location. Ella requires a fenced yard or a tie-out. I have a dog that has been reactive to Ella and her sister. She might be more active in a home in which she is not avoiding a dog that snaps at her.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Shaggy! Shaggy is a devoted dog who is looking for a lifelong companion.  He bonds hard to his humans once he trusts them! He can be shy when first meeting new people and will look to his trusted humans for guidance. Slow introductions to new humans and dogs are important for Shaggy to thrive. Allowing him to warm up on his own timeline is key. The world is still a bit scary and he is looking for a forever home to help him learn to trust it. A calmer quiet home would make him most comfortable. Shaggy enjoys playing with toys, but he plays with them in a quiet place, like under the a bed. It is very endearing.  Shaggy currently lives with small dogs, children and adults.   Shaggy is from Texas.

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!       Hello, my name is Jeremiah! I’m an incredibly handsome and happy-go-lucky Maltese puppy who loves everyone I meet…even dog-savvy, respectful kids! Hee, hee!! I have not met any cats; I’m a picky eater; and my small size makes me a bit more fragile. I am, however, still a high-energy guy who enjoys going on lots of leashed walks and playing with my people & other dogs! In fact, I’d love to have a canine playmate at my new home and although it’s not required, a fenced yard where we could safely frolic would be the icing on the cake! Oh my gosh I almost forgot…when I’m not frolicking and going on walks, I LOVE to be held, snuggled, & carried…hint, hint! LOL!! I’m usually pretty quiet but will sometimes moan & groan when left alone which by the way, foster mom finds “quite funny”! I, however, beg to differ because I would much rather be wherever my people happen to be…I’m just sayin’! Hee, hee!! I also bark when first kenneled/crated so shared walls are probably not a good fit for me. As a puppy, I’m still working on potty training but it’s going well so far on a consistent schedule and if I take too long sometimes a nice walk will do the trick! Hee, hee!! I should let you know that this frigid weather makes my little feet get cold and although walking may take my mind off it, I would sure appreciate some doggie boots…even if it does take some coaxing and getting used to! LOL Anyway, my life with foster mom has been great but I am ready for my fur-ever home with YOU…a patient, unconditionally loving family that will NEVER give up on me. I assure you that I’m a little ray of sunshine that will light up your world if you’ll just give me the chance! Love, Jeremiah *I’m a growing puppy and I have not yet had a lot of experience with crates, kids or cats and I might bark if something alarms me, but I really love to learn and hoping for a family who will take me to a basic obedience class to continue to help me build confidence and dog skills. Ideally my forever home would need to be home during the day to help me with my potty training and not leave me for breaks longer than 3 - 4 hours. If you are looking for a best friend, please fill out the puppy application. The more info you include on the application the better so I can find a good match for my forever home. Get your toy box ready! **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! 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 adopters 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.     This puppy 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. 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. 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.

Hi there! I'm Marlie Sue and I've foud myself here at the shelter at 14 years old, wondering what's going on? I'm really looking to find that special someone who will love me and care for me for the rest of my days. I'm a Maltese/Yorkie mix or a Morkie as they call it! I'm a very sweet girl and I would love to find my home.  I have chronic renal disease, so I will need frequent vet visits to make sure my kidneys are functioning properly as well as SQ fluids daily. I might need a prescription food as well.  If you're interested in adopting me, fill out an adoption application online at www.polkcountyhumanesociety.org/adopt where you will also find a link to request an appointment to meet me. Some pets are in foster homes or may already have an appointment scheduled, so the appointment is important to make sure I will be available to meet you when you come. Polk County Humane Society is located in Bolivar, Missouri, but also makes transports to the Denver, CO, Des Moines, IA and Minneapolis, MN areas at least monthly. For potential adopters in those areas, we can do a virtual visit using FaceTime or another app. Just request an appointment using the same link, but note that you want the visit to be virtual and we will call you at the time of the visit once it is confirmed. For long distance transports, there is an additional $100 fee to cover the cost of the transport ($65) and a health certificate from a veteinarian ($35). Going that last mile home for our sweet pets! ##1867765##
