Miniature Poodle puppies and dogs in Falcon Heights, Minnesota

Miriam is a very sweet, loyal little peanut. She loves to keep me in her eye sight and will follow me around the house. She is an amazing snuggler and makes a great lazy day partner watching movies or just hanging with you. Miriam is new to Minnesota so I am not sure how she does on a leash yet for walking but we will walk soon when weather permits. Miriam is potty trained, is fostered with 3 resident dogs, a resident cat and foster kitten and does well with all of them. She mostly just does her own thing currently but anticipate she may start to play more as she starts to feel comfortable. She has not met my grand kids yet but is a very mellow, chill girl so I anticipate she will do fine with them. Currently she sleeps in a crate next to our bed with no problems and sleeps through the night, i anticipate she will do just fine without a crate and left out as well and sleep with you , unfortunately my two chihuahuas do not like sharing their bed with others, so that is not an option with us. I will update her bio as I learn more about her, but she is a true sweetie and while she may be a little shy, with time and patience and lots of love and cuddles she will blossom. Oh, did I mention she has the cutest little begging prance when she is excited? Absolutely adorable. Miriam is estimated to be 2 years old and 10 lbs. Since we don’t know the dog’s actual genetics, this is just a guess on breed and size when grown. All dogs have had a vet examination, are up to date on all vaccinations, have been given dewormer and heartworm prevention. Dogs over 7 months have been heartworm tested.

He may start out skittish, but once he chooses his person, he becomes a loyal little shadow who wants nothing more than to be close. Rigel tends to feel more comfortable around women and can be unsure of men at first, sometimes barking or growling when he’s nervous. With consistency and calm reassurance, he settles and has even been known to curl up next to his foster dad once he feels safe. Now that he’s gaining confidence, Rigel is beginning to show his playful side. He loves small stuffed toys, nightly chew sessions with bully sticks or pig ears, and cuddling on the couch or in bed. He enjoys being out and about as long as his trusted person is right beside him, and he rides quietly in the car. Rigel does best with another dog in the home—preferably one similar in size—who can help him continue learning how to be a confident house dog. He has lived with cats and done well, and he gets along with most dogs, though he avoids pushy or cantankerous personalities. A fenced yard is important for him, as he loves the freedom to explore safely. Potty training is coming along nicely with a schedule, and he knows cues like “outside” and “go potty.” Crates are not his favorite and he takes time to settle, but he does well when riding in one in the car. Rigel is a sweet, intelligent little dog who blossoms with patience. Once he bonds, he is affectionate, cuddly, and devoted. He will thrive in a calm home with considerate older kids or adults, a gentle canine companion, and someone willing to give him the time he needs to trust. With the right family, Rigel will become the loving, loyal companion he’s meant to be. 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.    Isley, known as Izzy to those lucky enough to share a couch with her, is nine pounds of fluffy poodle charm wrapped in equal parts sass, sweetness, and tiny diva energy. She’s a miniature shadow who follows her people everywhere, determined to be both your personal assistant and your full-time emotional support gremlin. If you’ve ever wanted a dog who will love you with her entire soul and also judge you just a tiny bit while doing it, Izzy is your girl. Izzy warms up slowly to new people, especially men, and she is not afraid to announce her suspicions with a bark or two (or ten). The whole time she’s barking, her tail is wagging like mad because she’s brave, but she’s also friendly, and she also has a lot of feelings and wants to share them all at once. Once she decides you’re safe, she melts into a puddle of cuddles, kisses, and goofy charm. She loves treats, toys, puzzle games, raw bones, and anything edible—even strawberries and bell peppers. She is very proud of this. She’s food-motivated, attention-motivated, and absolutely certain she deserves both at all times. Izzy plays beautifully with dogs and cats, though what she wants most is a human who’s home a lot so she can keep her favorite job: professional lap warmer. Izzy is crate trained and does well once she’s in, though she’ll give you her best dramatic monologue about how she’d rather not. Potty training is definitely still a work in progress, but she’s getting there—slowly but surely—with routine, patience, and frequent breaks. She’s working on leash skills too, mostly because she’s very busy being adorable indoors and hasn’t quite decided if walking nicely outside is worth the effort. Her bond with other pups is strong, and she takes her protector role seriously. She will curl up happily with them in the coziest spots—often in a dark closet or wedged between pillows like tiny royalty figures napping on a throne. Izzy has a whole vocabulary of barks, from her excited play chirps to her “something suspicious is happening” alarm call. She’s expressive, funny, affectionate, and smart in that mischievous poodle way that means she’ll make you laugh daily. Izzy is a quirky, cuddly, vocal little sweetheart who will adore her people with her entire heart. If you want a tiny companion who sleeps like a princess, plays like a goofball, and loves like she means it, Izzy is ready to claim her spot in your pillows—and in your life.  Off you’re looking for an adorable pair, adoptable Fiora is her bestie!

She’s the shy girl who peeks around corners, thinks about trusting you for a solid five seconds, and then decides maybe—just maybe—you’re worthy of one tiny kiss delivered when you aren’t looking. She’s cautious, thoughtful, and a world-class hider, especially in new environments where she briefly imagines herself as an Olympic escape artist. But beneath that timid first impression is a gentle, goofy sweetheart who is slowly learning how wonderful it feels to be safe, silly, and loved. Fiora absolutely adores her foster fur siblings - they’re her built-in bodyguard, roommate, and emotional support fuzzball. They help tell her, “It’s okay, Fee, the humans are actually pretty nice,” while Fiora nods, gathers her courage, and then sits close enough to share snacks. Their bond is deep, sweet, and sometimes hilarious—especially when they insist on sharing the exact same sleeping spot between their humans’ pillows like two fluffy bookends. Fiora loves naps on her foster dad’s belly, investigating the fenced yard, and sampling every snack known to dogkind, including fruits and veggies like she’s auditioning for a canine grocery-store commercial. She’s quiet, gentle, crate trained, and wonderfully polite. She isn’t leash trained yet and can freeze like a tiny statue if you try, so a fenced yard is important for her. She’s also a master at the cozy lifestyle, happy to curl up in bed any time of day and claim her spot as if she pays rent. Life hasn’t always been kind to Fiora—her little ears and tail show signs of a rough past—but she is healing beautifully in a calm home with patient humans and another dog by her side. She has so much love to give once she feels safe. She sneaks sweet kisses, wiggles softly for pets, and has a gentle sparkle that you can’t help but fall for. She truly thrives with another dog, and she would be over the moon to be adopted with her foster fur sibling Isley, if you’re looking for a sweet pair!     Fiora is a soft, tender soul with a silly streak waiting to bloom. Whoever adopts her gets the sweetest gift: a quiet, gentle companion who loves deeply, naps often, and finds joy in the little things—especially if those little things are snacks.
