Pomeranian puppies and dogs in St Paul Park, Minnesota

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. McFlurry: The Fluff, The Myth, The Legend Oh hey there. Did someone say “adorable panda bear”? Oh wait—it’s just me, McFlurry, stealing hearts and snacks since... well, basically always. I know, I know—you’re wondering how a literal panda escaped the zoo, learned how to smize like Tyra Banks, and ended up in your adoption feed. Spoiler alert: I’m actually a dog. I KNOW. Try to stay calm. So here’s the scoop. My foster mom decided I needed a little pizzazz—as if my fluffy, doughy physique wasn’t enough—and voilà: pet-safe dye magic. Now I’m rocking the black-and-white look and confusing wildlife experts and toddlers alike. Add some squishy rolls and boopable snoot, and I’m basically a celebrity in disguise. Let’s Talk Name: McFlurry Yes, like the ice cream. Sweet? Duh. A bit thick? Mind your business. Fluffy? I exceed industry standards. I’m on a fitness journey—slow and steady wins the race, right? Sure, I’ve indulged in one too many cookies (or...everything ever), but I’m embracing my glow-up era. And before you ask—yes, those bright blue eyes are real. No, you may not borrow them. They’re my weapon of choice for manipulating humans into giving me treats, belly rubs, or full control of the remote. Personality Breakdown: Vibes: Marshmallow with mild sass. Energy level: Part-time potato, full-time vibe curator. Hobbies: Being carried like royalty, judging you from the couch, avoiding downward stairs like they owe me money. Social skills: I vibe well with other pups, but let’s be honest—I’m the main character. Attitude: Unbothered. Unapologetic. Unleashed. Potty Confessions: The Dirty Truth Let’s just rip off the bandage: I’m stubborn. I pee on my schedule, not yours. Potty training? We’re in negotiations. Belly bands? I wear them like a statement piece. Now, about my tummy: it’s... fragile. Like, emotionally and physically. So yes—I poop. A lot. Stress? Poop. Excitement? Poop. Slight breeze in the air? Poop. It’s called consistency, people. But wait—there’s more. Let’s talk dingleberries. Yes, those awkward, horrifying, and clingy little nuggets of shame. Thanks to my plush backside and luxurious fluff, the ol’ #2 sometimes lingers in... unfortunate ways. You’ll need to do some rear-end maintenance. Trust me, neither of us is thrilled about it—but love means picking up the pieces. Literally. Consider it a bonding experience. The Royal Treatment, Please I came from a breeder situation, so this whole “house pet” gig is new. Couches? Magical. Kind humans? Suspiciously nice. Dental work? Done—I’ve got four teeth on top and somehow even more personality. I don’t do leashes. I don’t do stairs. I do expect a fenced yard and a personal elevator (fine, a human with arms). You carry me—I wave like royalty. Dealbreakers: Apartments. I poop too freely and too often for shared walls. Stairs. Not a fan. Not negotiable. People who aren’t ready to discuss dingleberries like adults. So here’s the deal: I’m dramatic, extra, slightly high-maintenance, and 100% worth it. If you’re into snuggly sassballs with panda cosplay and an honest-to-God poop issue, then congratulations—you’ve found your soul-dog.

History: Dennis has had two major surgeries in his young life. The first was to address an instability that he had in his neck. The vertebra were unstable causing pain and instability in walking. Surgery was done in March 2025 to stabilize the affect vertebra. He has been doing very well since and we expect him to not have any long term concerns. It is recommendation to not allow any stair or jumping up and down off of furniture. The second surgery was to address his bilateral luxating patellas. This surgery was done in June 2025. Both knees were done at the same time. The surgery was done to keep the patellas in the correct position as he bends his knees. He also has been doing quite well since those surgeries. It is recommended going forward to use a harness and not a collar for him. A Note from the Foster:Dennis a tiny 4 lbs sweet gremlin who will love you with his whole heart! He will also keep you busy, on your toes and provide you with laughter and smiles every day. Dennis is a pretty typical Pomeranian. He has an opinion on everything and he very loudly shares his thoughts. So, shared walls may not be the best for him or the neighbors. He’s a Velcro dog who anticipates where you may be going whenever you get up. Get used to Dennis meeting you in the bathroom. He doesn’t bark. He yacks. Yes, yacks in rapid succession but, always with a smile. Dennis is very trusting so he will simply fall into your arms assured you will catch him. He sleeps on my bed, because he’s not a fan of crates. He’s a good bedmate who will climb up on your chest, fall over with his front legs in the air, so your hands can substitute for a mobile that he can bat around for some minutes, until without warning he gets up and goes to the far corner of the bed and goes to sleep. It’s one of the many Dennis things that makes him the tiny little tyrant you will love. Dennis would do best in a home without young children, because he is so small and somewhat fragile due to his spinal surgery (he was born without a connection between his C1-C2 vertebrae, which was joined in a very complicated surgery). His ideal home would also be with someone who is home most of the time, as Dennis complains loudly whenever I go anywhere without him. He loves to be carried outside in a sling, although you have to be a wee bit careful he won’t jump out in excitement if he starts to yack in excitement when he sees someone he knows or simply something interesting. Potty training is ongoing, and may always be ongoing, because he’s really not interested in learning. Walking in a harness on a leash can also be hit or miss, hence the sling. Dennis is a 4 lbs little guy with a 4 ton personality, who will consider you to be his assistant rather than a Mom or Dad. But I promise you will fall in love with him and all, well at least almost all, of his quirks the first time you pick him up and look at his bright eyes and little smile!

History: Marla is a super beautiful girl who was recently welcomed to rescue and will warm your heart with her smile and happy personality. She has her paws crossed to find her forever home soon! Marla was reported to be about 5 years old when she arrived to rescue however upon further examination, our veterinary team believes she is closer to 12 years of age. A Note from the Foster: Marla is a gentle, sweet senior Pomeranian whose favorite place in the whole wide world is right next to her people. She doesn’t just love being around you—she needs to be. If she had a theme song, it would be “Part of Your World” from The Little Mermaid, her favorite part of the song is:“I wanna be where the people are. I wanna see, wanna see 'em dancin' " At just a glance, you’ll see her soft fur and soulful eyes, but spend a few minutes with her, and you’ll know her true magic—Marla wants nothing more than to be part of your world. Whether you’re hanging out on the couch, working at your desk or going for a drive, she’ll happily be by your side, quietly reminding you how loved you are. Marla is still working on remember to go potty outside but on a schedule is doing great. She is working on her walking distance and right now while on leash sticks to a very small area because the outside world is so big and new for her. Marla sleeps in her crate when she is home alone and at night, but is willing to upgrade her sleeping arrangements for your lap or next to you in bed. Marla is looking for a forever family who will cherish her sweet nature, shower her with affection, and let her dreams come true: to simply be where the people are. Could Marla be the missing piece of your world?

History: Kawaii is a beautiful girl who needed a second chance at a good life. She is very timid and uncertain so a patient family will be so important for her success long-term! A Note from the Foster: Kawaii is a seven-year-old blue Pomeranian who is just beginning her journey into a life she has never known before. After spending her entire life in a commercial breeding environment, she was shaved down prior to her release to rescue. While we can’t know exactly what her coat will grow back like, we can imagine the beautiful Pom she once was — and will be again in her own time. More importantly, Kawaii herself is still very much at the earliest stages of healing. Right now, Kawaii is scared and skittish and not ready for hands-on affection. She is not a dog who will come running for pets or cuddles, and she will need a family who understands that trust must be earned slowly and gently. That said, behind her fear is a very silly little soul — especially when food is involved! She loves her meals, perks up for snacks, and shows us glimpses of personality that make us smile every day. Kawaii does not yet have leash-walking skills and will need patient, positive training to help her learn the basics of being a companion dog. She would do best in a home with other calm, confident dog companions, as dogs help her feel safe and show her what “normal life” looks like. Kawaii is not a beginner dog. She will require: A quiet, predictable home Extremely patient, kind adopters No expectations for immediate affection Willingness to let her set the pace Understanding that progress may be slow and nonlinear What she will give in return is the opportunity to watch a dog truly blossom — to see fear slowly replaced with curiosity, and uncertainty turn into trust. For the right family, Kawaii will be a deeply rewarding companion. If you are the kind of person who believes love is shown through patience, consistency, and compassion — and you’re willing to guide a little soul through the next chapter of her life — Kawaii may be your perfect match. 💙 Her story is just beginning.

History: Polar is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon! A Note from the Foster: If you are looking for a mini Husky as a pet, Polar would be your guy! Like any Husky, being outside in the snow is one of his favorite places to be! He loves playing, digging and running around as well as trying to catch snowballs! He is a sweet little guy who loves lots of pets and attention! Very friendly with people. It doesn’t appear that he inherited the Husky need to talk, and I’ve only heard him bark once! He came from a breeder release, so he is still figuring life outside of a crate. It may take some time for him to warm up to a house, but it doesn’t take long! He may put up a little fuss about being put in a crate, but he will settle down. He has been doing well with potty training. I try to put him outside at regular intervals and he doesn’t have accidents in between! He also keeps his crate pretty clean!

Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.    Hi, I’m Milo, a fluffy little Pom mix with a big heart packed into my 15 pounds. I’m a gentle guy who loves attention, kisses, and being part of the action. I get along great with dogs, cats, and kids, and I’m always ready to make new friends.  I do especially well with the littles and am very patient with them.   I’m not a big barker, but if another dog starts up, I’ll happily join the chorus. I’m kennel trained, keep my space clean, and I’m working hard on my potty training—it’s coming along nicely when I’m on a good schedule. I am still learning about the leash, so until I figure that out I will need a fenced in yard where I can explore safely and do my business.   My favorite toys are squeaky ones, but don’t worry—I don’t destroy them, I just enjoy the sound. I’m affectionate, even-tempered, and gentle, and I love being talked to. I’m smart enough to know commands like “Kennel,” “Go Potty,” and even “Get Back” when the door is open. I’m the kind of dog who wants to be with people, whether we’re playing, walking, or just hanging out. I’ll do fine on my own if you’re busy, but I’ll be happiest in a home where I get plenty of love and attention. If you’re looking for a sweet, fluffy companion who will make you smile every day, I’m your guy. Love, Milo 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.

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.
