Wire Fox Terrier puppies and dogs in Minneapolis, Minnesota

Sweet momma, Utopia, and her five day old pups were hours away from being euthanized in a small Texas animal shelter before they were rescued. Momma was scared and protective of her babies for a few days until she realized they were safe. Now she is a total lovebug! Utopia needs a patient family. She is shy and will take some time and lots of treats to be comfortable in her new home. She would do best with another confident dog to show her the ropes. She loves to run and play with other dogs so acclimating with them should be no problem. She is also cat friendly. Utopia does well in the car and walks great on a leash. She's ready for adventure and a love that lasts forever! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX adoption only)

Benji is a sweet little guy with a gentle soul. He can be a bit shy when meeting new people, but with a little patience, his loving personality quickly shines through. Before coming to the rescue, Benji lived life outdoors and had some hair loss, but now he’s on the mend—his scruffy coat is growing back in, and it just adds to his charm! He’s currently learning all the good stuff about being a spoiled house pup, like walking on a leash and discovering how amazing beds and toys can be. If you have a soft spot for scruffy, adorable boys and a heart for helping a pup continue to blossom, Benji is ready to find his forever home and be your loyal little companion Local adoption fee is $300(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $600 (includes transport to your area)

Snapshot of Zeeva: Size? Small now, but likely medium when fully grown. Activity Level? High – I’ve got lots of happy puppy energy! Noise Level? I bark when I play, or initially in the crate, but I’m otherwise pretty quiet. Good with Dogs? Yes! I would LOVE a playmate. Good with Cats? Yes – I ignore them. Good with Kids? I love kids, but I’m still learning my manners. Good with Strangers? Yes – I LOVE meeting new people. Potty Trained? In progress and doing well! Crate Trained? In progress. Shedding? Minimal right now, but that may change as I grow. About Zeeva: Hi there, I’m Zeeva (I also go by ZeeZee and Little Red)! I may be small, but I’ve got a big personality and even bigger heart. I’m a spunky little terrier-mix puppy who loves life and everyone in it. I came to TCPR from a local animal control after I was found as a stray, and now I’m ready for my forever home! People always compliment my pretty eyes and unique coat, but I think my playful, loving personality is my best feature! I love toys, bones, running around the yard, and a good game of tug. Sometimes my little legs move faster than the rest of me and I take a tumble—but don’t worry, I bounce right back up! I’m still growing into these long legs of mine. I absolutely adore other dogs and would thrive with a playful canine sibling, though I could also be happy as the center of your world. I love kids too, but I’m still learning things like personal space, so I can be a little jumpy and mouthy when I get excited. I ignore cats, they're boring. With continued training and guidance, I’m going to grow into a very well-mannered girl. I’m doing great with potty training and just need a consistent routine and someone who can help me keep building good habits. I'm still very young, so it will take awhile for me to be a pro. I’m also learning to love my crate—I bark at first, when I think I'm missing out, but I settle down after a few minutes. At bedtime, I'll sleep in my crate through the night without a peep as long as my crate is close to my person. I’m looking for a family that’s ready for all the fun (and a little bit of chaos!) that comes with raising a puppy. In return, I promise endless kisses, cuddles, and daily laughter. If you’re ready for a sweet, silly best friend who will keep you smiling every single day—I’m your girl. I can’t wait to meet you! Zeeva is spayed, microchipped, and current on vaccinations appropriate for her age. Adoption Fee: $600 + applicable tax MEET ME/ADOPT ME: If you’d like to arrange a meeting or begin the adoption process, please fill out an adoption application by visiting https://www.twincitiespetrescue.org/adopt/ or clicking “adopt me!”. A volunteer from Twin Cities Pet Rescue will contact you within 3 business days. FOSTER HOMES NEEDED!!! Twin Cities Pet Rescue is a volunteer-run, foster home-based organization. We can only rescue as many animals as available foster homes. Please consider saving the life of an animal in need and become a volunteer foster home today. To become a foster, fill out a dog or cat foster application on the Twin Cities Pet Rescue website: www.twincitiespetrescue.org . There is little to no cost to foster an animal. Twin Cities Pet Rescue provides its foster families with food, supplies, and veterinary care for its animals. All you need to do is supply the love! PLEASE NOTE: Twin Cities Pet Rescue will consider adoption applicants from many parts of the country. However, preference will always be given to applicants within 100 miles of the Twin Cities area, which includes parts of Wisconsin.

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.  Want to meet me? Come to the Underdog Headquarters (3345 Dakota Ave, St. Louis Park, 55416) on Thursday, April 23rd from 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm. Please email inquiries@underdogrescuemn.com for questions regarding the dogs. Hi! My name is Erika, and I’m a happy little puppy with a wagging tail (with the cutest little white tip—it’s like a flag!) and one adorable floppy ear that seems to have a mind of its own. I may be a little shy when we first meet, but I’ve really come out of my shell! I warm up much more quickly now and once I know everything is safe, my sweet, playful personality shines. My tail is almost always wagging because I truly want to be your friend. My favorite things in the world are toys, treats, and playing with my dog friends. I especially love toys that squeak or crinkle, and I could spend a long time happily chewing or tossing them around. Running around the yard with other dogs is one of my absolute favorite activities—I love to chase, explore, and just be a happy puppy. I also have a softer side. I love cuddling just as much as I love playing! Now that I’ve mastered getting up on the couch, it’s one of my favorite spots (besides the bed!) to snuggle up with my people or my dog friends. I have a pretty chill, easygoing personality and really enjoy just being close to those I trust. Because I’m still learning about the world, I feel most confident when I have another dog around. I naturally follow their lead when I’m unsure, and having a dog buddy helps me feel safe and brave. I would truly thrive in a home with another friendly dog to play with and snuggle. I’ve been working hard on my training and have made great progress! When kept on a consistent schedule, I’m doing very well with potty training and have been able to keep my crate clean during the day. I settle nicely in my crate and continue to improve every day. Leash walking is still a work in progress, but I’m getting better! Cars can make me a little nervous, so I’ll pause and let them pass, then keep going. With continued patience and encouragement, I’ll keep gaining confidence. I also love spending time outside—especially laying in the warm sun or finding the perfect stick to chew on. It’s the simple things that make me happiest! I’m a gentle, loving, playful girl with a soft heart, a wagging tail, and so much love to give. With a patient family and a dog friend by my side, I’ll continue to blossom into the most loyal and snuggly best friend. The only thing missing from her happy, tail-wagging life….is someone to share it with .  I’m a growing puppy and I have not yet had a lot of experience with crates, kids or cats and I might bark if something alarms me, but I really love to learn and hoping for a family who will take me to a basic obedience class to continue to help me build confidence and dog skills. Ideally my forever home would need to be home during the day to help me with my potty training and not leave me for breaks longer than 3 - 4 hours. If you are looking for a best friend, please fill out the puppy application. The more info you include on the application the better so I can find a good match for my forever home. Get your toy box ready! **Obedience classes are required when adopting this puppy from Underdog Rescue. Many of our puppies have a mama who was not properly socialized before coming to Underdog Rescue. Since coming to Underdog, this puppy has been in a socialized and loving home, but that needs to be continued with its Adopters. Training classes teach puppies the ins and outs of being a pet while creating a bond with their new Adopter. Obedience classes are key to creating a relationship with your puppy while having it be a happy and successful member of society. Proof of Obedience Class registration is required for this puppy before adoptions can be finalized. If you would like some suggestions, we would be happy to send some trainers who have experience with Underdog Rescue, but a Basic Obedience class in your area should work! 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.  T his puppy 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.   Puppy 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 puppy. Our goal is place puppies 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 puppy, we will not approve your application. We accept applications for puppies until we have a candidate that meets all of the requirements needed for the specific puppy and they have been contacted to review the adoption process as well as agree to all of the terms to move forward. ***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.

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org 🌟🐾 Meet Astrid — CEO of Puppy Shenanigans & Professional Explorer 🐾🌟 Female • 3 Months Old • Future Perfect Medium Size If you’ve been looking for a happy, curious, tail-wagging bundle of puppy joy, allow us to introduce Astrid — a 3-month-old adventurer who wakes up every day convinced the world was created specifically for fun, snacks, and exploring absolutely everything. Astrid is a typical loving-life puppy, which means her daily schedule looks something like this: • Wake up • Zoom around like she just drank three espressos • Investigate mysterious leaves • Wrestle with dog friends • Practice being adorable • Take a dramatic nap • Repeat She’s very social, great with other dogs, and absolutely loves having playmates. If there’s another dog around willing to run, wrestle, or engage in competitive zoomies, Astrid is 100% on board. She also loves being outside exploring the big ole world — sniffing trails, investigating sticks, chasing leaves, and generally making sure no blade of grass goes unexamined. Hiking buddy in training? Definitely. Astrid loves people too, but it’s only fair to give you the official puppy disclaimer: she still comes equipped with those sharp little puppy nails and tiny shark teeth. Not malicious — just enthusiastic. The good news is she’ll grow out of that stage with a little guidance and training. Cats are currently unknown, but with her young age and proper introductions, she should adapt just fine. Astrid would be happiest with a family that enjoys being active and including their dog in the fun — walks, hiking, camping trips, backyard adventures, neighborhood strolls, and of course couch cuddles once the day’s exploring is done. Because life with Astrid will include: • Daily laughter • Random zoomies • Toy explosions • Surprise puppy kisses • And a whole lot of love In other words… exactly what puppyhood should be. 👉 Apply today at haydudeequine.org and let Astrid bring the adventures, the laughs, and the puppy chaos (the cute kind) into your life. 🐶💛
