If you are seeing our pets posted in your state, that's because you live near a transport stop, they are not currently at that location. Petfinder lists our pets as 'Out of Town' pets at other locations, and Adopt-a-Pet lists our location as a Transport stop. Those are currently the only options they offer to make this clear, so we put this description we've put at the bottom to explain it.

I take a while to warm up to new people, and I’m still unsure about my foster family, but I’m learning to trust them. My foster mom says I’m getting better, and with gentleness and patience, I even let her hold me every day! Oh, and I’m a bit of a foodie—I love a good meal, and I love my treats. I really brighten up when I smell something tasty! Food is definitely the way to my heart. I like other dogs, especially those around my size. I’m still not quite sure about playing, but I love to snuggle and hang out with other four-legged friends. My foster family hasn’t introduced me to cats yet. I’d do best in an adult-only home, or in a home with calm, older kids who will be patient with me. New things scare me, and I might try to run and hide if my humans are too exuberant! I am crate trained, and I feel safe and cozy there. I’m working on my potty training, and I’ve figured out that if I bark at the door, my foster family will let me outside to do my business. I also do well with a schedule. I really like my fenced back yard, and since I haven’t been leash trained yet, I get most of my zoomies out there. Plus, the fence keeps unexpected, scary things away. Someday, I might be brave enough to go for a walk, but I don’t feel ready right now. All I need is a patient, understanding family to help me conquer my fears. When I get to know you and understand that you love me, I’ll love you right back. I’m a total sweetheart, just wait and see! I’m so excited to find my fur-ever family. *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.

I’m Bourbon, a very handsome adult male Yorkie. I don’t play with toys, but I enjoy gazing out the window, saying hello to visitors or other dogs, getting praises, sitting close to my people (although I’m not much for cuddling), and I LOVE running super-fast zoomies in the yard so I will need a fence. To tell ya the truth, I am an incredibly shy/skittish boy. I mean I’m very cautious of men; I’m reluctant to go up/down steps; I freeze when on the leash; and I don’t like loud noises, commotion, and sudden movements so kids are not a good fit for me. Additionally, I have a sensitive stomach so foster mom currently gives me a probiotic and acid reducer and though I don’t know if I will need them long term, they seem to be helping now. I have no experience with cats, but I do fine with other dogs and I’m a smart boy who’s not only kennel/crate trained but I know what “come”, “kennel/crate”, and “go potty” mean and I’m good about doing my business outside on a schedule.  The only thing missing from my life is YOU… a patient, unconditionally loving fur-ever family that will NEVER give up on me. I am a well-behaved guy who promises to love you more than you could ever possibly imagine so I really hope you’ll welcome me into your life!

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 there! I'm Blossom, the sweet Yorkie with an appetite for treats and a heart ready to bloom. Let me tell you a bit about myself, and I'm sure you'll see the potential for a beautiful friendship. But read carefully as I do have some behavioral issues and will need to go to a very special forever home. I'm a 9-pound bundle of sweetness, and my name says it all—Awesome Blossom! I'm house trained and have the whole crate routine down, although I've recently discovered the joy of comfy beds and couches. My love for treats knows no bounds, and my humans find my little dances and animated antics quite amusing. I'm a quiet companion who loves being your shadow. If food is involved, count me in! Napping in my cozy beds is a favorite pastime, and I hope my gentle snoring won't keep you up. I'm a good girl, but there's a unique quirk – I'm afraid of touch. However, I make up for it with adorable bumps on your hand and leg, especially if you're fixing my food. I love other dogs and currently share my space with two furry friends. Snuggling with them is one of my favorite activities. Did I mention how much I love to eat? Veggies and fruits are on my menu too, all part of staying healthy! It is very important to know that while some might see my fear of touch as a challenge, others believe in my potential to blossom, hence the name. I'm trying my best to trust and be part of a loving family. Due to my fear of touch, grooming requires a bit of extra attention. But don't worry, my foster mom can fill you in on the details. Invest your time with me, and I'm sure the rewards will be plentiful. I might have my quirks, but I'm your Blossom! Let's make memories together. *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.

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 Eco Expo at Eden Prairie Center (8251 Flying Cloud Dr, Eden Prairie, MN 55344) for an Adoption Event on Saturday April 20th 1:45-3:30 pm. Find me on the lower level near the center of the mall. Please email inquiries@underdogrescuemn.com for questions regarding the dogs.   Do you want someone to snuggle up next to you?  I’m an expert.  It took me a few days here to warm up to my new surroundings but I’ve discovered how nice it feels to be loved and I’m not going back.  So much so that when they tried putting me in a kennel at bedtime, I began my high pitched yodeling and lo-and-behold, I was allowed into the bed and now there’s no going back. Additionally, I am not a big fan of the kennel when my people leave the house either. They have been letting me roam in the house and I really try to do my best to be a good boy and not leave them “surprises” to find when they get home. I am still a bit nervous and sensitive to loud sounds and fast movements so I probably wouldn’t like the fast energy of little children. Foster mom let me decide when I wanted snuggles at first as opposed to always being picked up and dragged around. And now that I’m comfortable and feel safe, I enjoy the rides and all the loving.  I do want to share with you how smart I am! I was really hesitant to go up and down the stairs when I first arrived, but have quickly mastered both up and down AND have figured out how to jump on the couch to be near my people. So scoot over and make room for me next to you! I have also figured out what to do with toys and enjoy soft toys and will even tug on the fringe of a blanket. Oh oh! My people said that I am good about getting redirected so don’t worry. As for potty training, I’m working on it and do well on a good schedule.  We can work on that together. I recently started playing with toys and have a special little stuffed animal that I will carry around. I love toys that I can pull things out of and really enjoy parading my found treasure around to show how proud I am that I got it! So if you are up for a lap dog, I’m your dude.  I’m also observant and will progress really quickly with some training.  That’s where I’ll become more confident.  All I need now is a patient and loving family to call my own! *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.

Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.    Hey there, I'm Joan, a beautiful and very happy yorkie that has made great steps in growing confidence and trust in my people. At home, it took some time, but I've really settled in and love nothing more than snuggling up with my humans. I may be small, but I've got a big heart, especially when it comes time to spending time with my people on the couch. Recently I have started to play with toys. And I have also discovered the great secret of treats – I love a yummy snack or nibbling on bones. I admit I'm not a fan of loud noises but could be in a forever home with kids if they are calm and gentle. I would thrive in a quiet home where I can continue to gain confidence and build a trusting relationship with my people. I also need another dog in my forever home – having a confident and social furry friend will help me get on a routine, learn to be a dog and be brave. Oh, and did I mention I'm almost potty trained? With a little more practice, I'll have it down pat! Want to know a little secret? I was a bit afraid of grass when I first arrived and have been going potty on the concrete patio. And while I'm a pro at crate training at night, especially when my kennel is near my people. But I'm not a fan of being cooped up during the day, I have turned into a little escape artist so I get a little freedom while my people are away. I am still working on leash training, so I need a fence in my forever home. There are so many “dog” things I am learning, so a little time and patience will be key for me. Overall, I'm a sweet little girl who's ready to find her forever home. Yes, I’m timid and it will take time for me to feel comfortable but I’m an absolute sweetheart who deserves a patient, unconditionally loving fur-ever home with a family that will NEVER give up on me…like YOU! If you will simply welcome me into your world, I promise I will love you more than you could EVER imagine!
