Poodle (Toy or Tea Cup) puppies and dogs in Eden Prairie, Minnesota

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.  Hi there! I'm Mindy, also known as Minnie, and I’ve got the most beautiful, fluffy ears you’ve ever seen—seriously, they’re perfect and will melt your heart at first sight! Furry, friendly, forever yours is my motto. I’m an 8 year old Poodle, weighing in at a petite 13 pounds, and I'm looking for my forever home. I’m the sweetest, most easy-going little girl you’ll ever meet. My tail is always wagging because I just love meeting new people. I’m a social butterfly who adores getting pets and being held. There’s nothing I love more than sitting on someone’s lap or being cuddled in their arms—pure heaven! I enjoy going for walks, sniffing around, and exploring new scents. I don’t need to go far, and I’m really good about doing my business outside---although, sometimes I need a little reminder while we are out. I also use a potty pad inside because, hey, options are important! When it comes to food, I’m a big fan! Any kind of food or treat gets me excited, especially cheese and pup cups. Playtime with toys is a blast, but snuggling with my human is just as delightful. I ride wonderfully in the car and love meeting new people when we’re out and about. So at home or on an adventure, I will make you proud. I’m good with obedience commands like “Come,” “Outside,” and “Go Potty.” I’m also very well-behaved at home. I don’t need a crate—I’m perfectly happy with a dog bed and free roam of the house. Truly, I will mostly be wherever you are, so think dynamic-duo. Because of my small size and tendency to be underfoot, I might not be the best fit for a home with young children. I haven’t met larger dogs or cats, so I’m not sure how I’d get along with them, but I do well as the only pet as long as my humans are home most of the time. I only bark when alarmed, so I’m generally a quiet companion. If you’re looking for a sweet-natured, easy-going, and loving little Poodle with the cutest, fluffiest ears around, I’m your girl! I can’t wait to find a family who will love me as much as I love them. *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.

I'm Jockey, a sweet and small Mini Poodle weighing in at just 5 pounds. I'm 4 years old and ready to find my forever home. When I first arrived, I was pretty scared, but I've been working hard to overcome my fears and now my true personality is starting to shine through. At home, I'm becoming more comfortable every day. I used to hide when someone tried to pick me up, but now that I have gotten to know my foster mom, I lay down calmly  ready for some love. I enjoy spending time in the yard, especially when the neighbors walk by with their dogs. I love sniffing and checking out all the pups and people from the safety of my fence. I have a few adorable quirks that will make you smile. I do a little dance when it's mealtime, and if you're not paying attention to me during treat time, I'll pat your leg to make sure you see me. I'm quite the foodie and love treats and chew bones. Just a heads-up, I prefer to keep my chewies to myself! I'm still working on overcoming some fears, like loud noises, which can be a bit scary for me. But with patience and kindness, I'm getting better every day. I'm almost potty trained as long as I'm on a good schedule, and I'm also crate trained. I don't need a fenced yard because we're working on leash training, and I'm doing well with that in quieter areas. I will need more practice with leash training in my forever home. I can get a bit vocal when you leave the house, but that's just because I love being around my people. It would be best if I didn't have shared walls.  If you're looking for a fantastic companion who will dance into your heart, look no further! With a little patience and kindness, I'll be your loyal and loving friend. *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.

Stede is a sweet, friendly, little guy! He loves other dogs and to be near his people. He joined us from one of our local shleter partners with some wounds on his snout area. It looks like he could have been bitten by another animal. He was an unclaimed stray, so we do not have any background information on him. Although his snout it still healing it doesn't seem to bother him at all. He is improving on his crate training and potty training.  He would really love a home where his people are home more than they are away and a family who would take him with them as often as possible. He can be a bit of a talker, so no shared walls for this little peanut. ##2056521##

Hi, I'm Shadow.My name fits me perfectly because I like to be near my people.   I also like my toys, and I love to play.  I'm also an introvert so while I'm cute and playful in the house,  I'm very nervous in the outside world.  So please don't take me to dog parks,  pubs or places with lots of people and other dogs.    I have some fear aggression I've been working on with a trainer.   My new family will need to continue that.  See, I was found as a stray on the streets of Minneapolis and being only 10 lbs, everything was a threat.   I'm learning that's not the case,  so please be patient with me.  Because of my fear of other dogs,  I have to be the only dog and it's helpful to have a fence back yard for those days when the outside world is too much.   You ever have those days? If you have room in your heart and patience to help me learn,  I'd love to meet you.   I'm worth all the effort.  Love, Shadow ##2017792##
