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. 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.

This French Bulldog mix is equal parts silly, snuggly, and smart—a total goofball with a heart of gold. She’s recently discovered the joy of toys and takes her job as “Chief Toy Relocator” very seriously, moving each one from the basket to her bed or the couch like a tiny interior designer with a plan. Lucy Lou is a certified cuddlebug and insists on sharing the big bed with her people—she’s a champion sleeper and the perfect bedtime buddy. Kennels? Not her thing. She much prefers a cozy dog bed (or let’s be real, your bed) and a few toys nearby. She’s nearly potty trained and does great when she’s not confined to the crate. When she’s excited, she might get a little mouthy while playing, so she’d do best with older or dog-savvy kids. She’s super sweet, loves all treats, enjoys her walks, and is quite proud of her harness fashion sense. Just make sure your yard or leash game is solid—Lucy Lou is part dog, part escape artist, and will absolutely inspect your fence for weaknesses. While she doesn’t need a fenced in yard, she must always be leashed.  She has done well with all pups she’s met, but would be great as an only dog, too! She loves to zoom, play, and soak up all the love you can give. Lucy Lou is loyal, hilarious, and endlessly lovable. Whoever adopts her is in for a lifetime of snorts, smiles, and snuggles.

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.
