Story
Welcome Stevie to CCPAL Rescue. He is a 16- month old Pughuahua is our best guess. He is a small dog at 15 pounds. He has a great appetite and isn’t picky on his food. He currently eats in his crate. He is very puppylike and playful. He loves the small dog tennis balls. He likes all toys and will take the fluff out of them if he can. He is good in a crate and currently best friends with a small female playful dog in his foster home. He likes to run and play. He is crate trained and, on a schedule, will do all business outside. He is learning the doggy door. He does respond to the word “no” and stops what he is doing when you say it. He is good in a car and now good on a leash. He is friendly with dogs after he meets them. He would prefer a family of small dogs or no dogs would also be fine. When he goes outside to do his business, he does like his family to stay out there while he does his business. He will not go in his crate and will bark when he needs to go while in his crate. He was found as a stray on the streets of San Antonio. He was picked up by a good Samaritan after her day’s work. She saw him before work and after work he was still there so she took him home. He is now in a CCPAL foster home getting his training so he will be ready for his new forever home. He is not a big shedding dog, has an adorable underbite and a very cute curly tail. He is currently in Texas and can be adopted locally. We can also work with one of the wonderful transporters to get him to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. His adoption fee is 400 and transport is 200. Rhode Island and Massachusetts are not states we adopt to because of the regulations imposed by these states.Contact Marlene at 210-867-1769 or email ccpalinquiries@gmail.com if you have questions.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. //   Find our applications at www.midwestanimalrescue.orgAdoption Fee $400 plus taxRequires another confident dog No children under 12 Hi my name is Zach I came from a hoarder/breeder situation. I ’m a little shy meeting people but if you bribe me with treats I warm up in time.  On my walks I shy away from people so it takes me time to get used to strangers. I didn’t get any pets till I came to my foster home. My foster mom showed me how wonderful it is to be petted and curl up beside her when she’s watching tv or reading. If she’s petting my foster sister I nudge my way in cause I want my share. I like the walks my foster dad takes me on and have learned to walk pretty good on a leash. I like to play with toys occasionally. I love the fenced in yard and like to run and play with my foster sister. I’m a sweet and loving boy looking for my furever home. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.  or    *The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person!  If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called 'cute' as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification! Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.  *Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.  Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks. Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.   //

I am with another rescue that is having a family emergency. If interested in adopting me, Hay Dude Rescue will pull me into their rescue to complete my adoption. My name is Gabriel and if you're in search of a handsome lil fella, well, shoot...look no further. I am right around 6 months old and very sweet and playful. That typical puppy that just loves living life. Exploring this big ole world and playing are 2 of my favoritest things with snuggles and eating coming in a close 2nd. I will need to have continued house training. I'm almost there but still need a little more training. I'm a pretty smart lil cookie (it must be so cuz my foster mom tells all the time) and should have the hang of it in no time at all. I come in at around 14lb and shouldn't get a whole lot bigger at my adult weight. But don't you worry none, I'll be the perfect size for giving you all my love and cuddles. And it's also the perfect size for, yep...everything! From neighborhood strolls to some nature trails!! My short coat is going to easy peasy in the grooming department and that means lots of extra time in the 'spoil me rotten' department. Oh my, what could be better?!! Are you in search of a family addition that will be there by your side, a constant in your life thru all your daily going on's? A BFF to share your joys and sorrows?

Story
Location: Sioux Falls, SD My name is Harry and I am really just the bestest boy! I love hanging with my people! I get along with other dogs and cats and kids. I am working on house manners- including house training. I am used to having to mark what is mine, but my foster mom says it's something I need to change. So for now I get to wear a very handsome belly band, and I am working on it for my future family. I am working on learning some tricks, but my mom gives me a treat regardless if I do the trick or not- she gives them to me because I am just so cute! I am getting used to my kennel- I can whine a bit when first put in, but I quiet down quickly. I sleep in bed with my humans and dog friends. I get the zoomies, but I am just a little guy, so I don't do any damage or knock anyone over. I am excited to find my forever home and be your next best friend! ----- The best way to show interest in an animal is to submit an adoption application by visiting our website (www.rescuenetworkmn.org). Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, all age-appropriate vaccinations (Distemper, Rabies, and Bordetella), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, heartworm test (dogs), FIV/FeLV test (cats), dewormed, and microchip implant (including registration). Rescue Network is strictly foster based which means all adoptable animals are in a home and there cannot be a meet until an application is submitted and approved. We have no way of knowing the breeds in the animals. All breeds listed are a best guess.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi, I'm BamBam and I'm just a baby learning all the things while I play as much as I can. I have a lot of puppy energy so I would love to have a furry playmate or an active family to keep me busy. I am a bit jumpy and need some training on manners right now so small children may not appreciate me. But I sure am cute! And I am eager to please and learn all the things I need to know to be the best buddy ever. If I sound like what you're looking for then submit an application today!   BamBam is from Texas. They arrive in Minnesota on 05/04/2024 and will need to be picked up from the Ruff Start Rescue office in Princeton, MN between the hours of 5pm and 8pm. Please plan for their arrival accordingly as we cannot accommodate pickups outside of this time frame.  Since they haven’t arrived yet, they are available exclusively through Ruff Start’s Foster to Adopt (FTA) Program. Click here to learn more about the FTA program. Once they get to Minnesota, they might require further veterinary care. Ruff Start’s veterinary suite is located in Princeton, MN, and, as the foster, you will be required to transport your dog to and from these vetting appointments. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. *Rescue puppies are notorious for losing their birth certificates before entering our rescue.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.    Hello, my name is Jayce! I’m a quiet young adult female Bulldog who is not only stunning to look at but I’m hilarious & fun-loving too! Hee, hee!! I’m a stubborn gal who likes to have things my way and I enjoy eating things I shouldn’t like soft toys, blankets, & clothes. The truth is, I love everything…foster mom says, “sometimes too much” for example I cannot have a bed in my kennel, and I probably shouldn’t have soft toys at all especially if unsupervised because I may devour them LOL!! I have not met any cats and I have been working hard with foster mom on understanding I don't need to resource guard things. Since getting spayed, I have made great improvements in this area, but upon first intros in a new home, my forever home should just remember I am still learning!  I love my kennel and toys and all you people so much!  With other pups, some could say I'm more of the alpha lady in the group. I just let everyone know that and the dogs get that out of the way and then we are besties!  If you have no other dogs in the home and can give me all the attention, well, that would be FABULOUS!  I tend to be better friends with the boy dogs that I meet because they tell me I'm pretty ;) That said, I am also working diligently at potty training and although I do my business outside, I still have some accidents in the house which foster mom thinks could be a ploy for attention…all I know is that I’m trying hard to not have them! I AM, however, leash & kennel/crate trained; I know commands like “sit”, “down”, “come”, “kennel/crate”, “leave it”, “outside”, & “go potty”; I’m a good listener; and I do well in an environment tailored to my needs…sneaky girls after all, need no temptations am I right!?!  I am good with kids, but because of my love for eating things I should not, I would not do well in a home with kids who have little socks, stuffed animals, and other intriguing things around. They tell me it will get stuck in my stomach, but I'm not sure what that means really.... Being a bulldog, I do need my tail pocket cleaned pretty regularly. When I came to Underdog, I had a pretty nasty tail infection and we treated that. I was evaluated to have my tail removed, but my tail is so short that it was not an option as it would be very complicated. I just need a forever home who will help me keep that clean! Anyway, I am a wonderfully adorable albeit complicated lady who simply wants ALL the love I can get! In other words, I’m looking for YOU…a VERY patient, unconditionally loving, bulldog savvy, fur-ever family that will help me work on my behavior and NEVER give up on me. I’m curious and always willing to check out new things but I assure you there is nothing in the world more important to me than my home and my people. Sure I may be a handful but I am super easy to love and I promise if you welcome me into your world, I will love you more than anything and I will totally make you laugh! Love, Jayce *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.     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.      In addition to normal pre adoption surgeries, Betty also had surgery on her nares and soft palate to improve the quality of her breathing. This is reflected within her adoption fee. 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. 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.

Story
Welcome Pumpkin to CCPAL Rescue. She is a 2-year old Boston Terrier/Lab or Cattle Dog is our best estimate. She has a rounded head with an upturned nose which has helped us come to this breed mix. She knows sit and will sit nicely for a treat. She likes treats and takes them nicely out of your hand. She likes toys and will give up her toy easily. She is good on leash even though she does pull some. She is very happy and really likes attention. She is good with the dogs that she has met at the shelter. She is also good in her kennel. She is an adorable dog and will make some lucky family a wonderful companion. She would be fine with children. We like them to be 8 or older. She is vaccinated, spayed, healthy and ready for her forever home. She would be a great family companion and would be great with a moderately active family. She is active but will calm down and be relaxed after a small amount of activity. She in our opinion a perfect dog. She would be fine with children. We like them to be 8 or older. She moderately sheds and weighs about 40 pounds. She is currently in Texas and can be adopted locally in Texas. We can also work with one of the wonderful transporters to get her to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. Her adoption fee is 300 and transport is 200. Rhode Island and Massachusetts are not states we adopt to because of the regulations imposed by these states. Contact Marlene at 210-867-1769 or email ccpalinquiries@gmail.com if you have questions.

Story
Hi there, I’m Boss. My age isn’t spot on but the vet and my foster family say I’m still young and have a lot of puppy in me! My approximate birthday is 12/20/22. I’m a big dog (60+ pounds) and still growing love bug (you can see that with the heart on my nose) that loves to snuggle and go on walks. Due to being a bully mix, lots of walks, hikes and stimulating games are a huge need because of my excitement and energy! Ongoing training is also a must to remind me that humans are in charge. When I’m calm, my favorite thing to do is observe the outside world through the windows. I LOVE looking out windows. I love car windows and car rides too. Sticking my head out the window and looking around is so freeing. It also draws a lot of attention to me which I love! My foster’s find that kind of strange due to my past. I was found somewhere in the middle of nowhere. Sadly, but thankfully I was dumped near a house…the people in the house decided to walk out to investigate and found me sitting where I was dumped. I was confused and trying to figure out what just happened to me! Boy was I thankful to see them! I do amazing with other dogs but I get too excited when I first see them that I forget boundaries. This can make other dogs nervous. I don’t realize that I’m a BIG boy for my age. Cats and smaller animals wouldn’t be good around me. If it’s small and moves, it’s a toy for me. I’m good with kids but my energy can easily get in the way of that. Older kids would be better suited for me. I’m potty trained on a schedule. I’m also kennel trained which is needed if I’m going to be left alone for any period of time. Another thing I like to do is parkour! Parkouring is my ultimate way to get up to high places such as taller beds and couches. I also do the run and jump, at least that’s what my fosters called it because of my little stubby legs. I’m still trying to figure out my new life and home setting. I’d love to find someone I could relax with and that wouldn’t mind my snorting and snoring but also someone to go and adventure around with. Hope to meet you soon! Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee:  $525.00 Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 25, 2024, 2:06 pm
