Australian Cattle Dog puppies and dogs in Mound, Minnesota

Hi, my name is Golem and I am from Alabama. Meet this adorable little nugget who’s looking for a soft place to land! I’m a young pup with a big heart, a wiggly butt, and a whole lot of love to give. I’m playful, curious, and learning new things every day. I’d love a foster who can guide me, cuddle me, and help me grow into the amazing dog I’m meant to be

Hi, my name is Aunt Daisy. I am from Georgia. From her foster: Aunt Daisy is a calm and gentle dog who is happiest lounging around the house with her people. She is the perfect blend of couch-potato cozy and occasional adventures. At home, Auntie is a dream. She is respectful of furniture and happy to stay off the couch if you prefer, though she will want to settle in nearby. She appears to be crate trained but has not needed it during her stay with us as she has behaved herself. One of her cutest quirks is her love of carrying toys around the house. Auntie would thrive in almost any family. She’s gentle with children, friendly with other dogs and cats. She doesn’t mind being handled, snuggled, bumped, or having her paws examined. Her sweet, steady temperament makes her a great fit for a busy household or a quiet one. From the Vet: I am currently being treated for heartworm disease. Heartworm is not contagious so your resident pets are not at risk! The treatment for this is 3-4 months long and requires a minimum of 3 appointments and strict rest/restricted activity. My adoption can take place during treatment, while TBB manages the financial responsibility of my heartworm treatment at The Bond Between Vet Center. Any other medical care needed outside of the specific care covered in the contract disclaimer, would be the responsibility of my new family. After heartworm treatment TBB will agree to cover 1 dental COHAT procedure + 1 round of medications and 1 recheck appointment associated with surgery as determined necessary by The BB Medical Team. This surgery should be scheduled by Aunt Daisy's adopters no sooner than 30-40 days after completion of her heartworm treatment and no later than 6 months post adoption.

Hi, my name is Celina and I am from Alabama. I am a goofy, loyal, SMART, loving pup trying to find my forever home. I love to play with toys, lay and cuddle with my temporary human, and love everyone I meet! I am currently residing in an apartment complex with many people and other furry friends. I get along with everyone and make everyone smile. I already know how to sit, stay, and learning the potty training thing. I would love to find my forever home with someone or a family who is somewhat active and will continue to teach me things since I'm such a curious and smart lady. I am good with children over the age of 5 since I'm still a puppy and learning not to get too excited, but with training will be excellent with all ages. I would be great as an only dog, but also would love a friend!

Hi, my name is Riddick and I am from Alabama. I love car rides and chew toys. I am good with dogs, cats, and kids. I am doing great with potty training and have had very few accidents. I sleep through the night and I love taking naps cuddled up to my person. I get very sad when I’m left alone for any period of time...I love being close to my people. I would do best in a home where someone stays at home and has other dogs. I’m a very good boy who is eager to please my people and learns very easily. I am very motivated by food and love mealtime. I am a playful, sleepy puppy who is looking for a loving forever home.

I need a temp foster from 2/12 - 2/24. (I'm also available for adoption!) Please email fostersupport@thebondbetween.org if you can help. Hi, my name is Magnum and I am from Arkanas! From his foster: Hi, I am Magnum, a fully trained ten-month-old pup with lots of love to give to my humans. My foster family says I am so pretty and the pictures don't do me justice. You would think from my breeds, I would be high energy, but I am really a very chill dog. I live with other dogs and a cat (although the cat doesn't come around much). Most of my days are spent either playing with the black lab in the house, playing with my toys or sleeping because growing up is hard work. I sleep through the night in my kennel. My foster family tells me I'm a "good boy" a lot and have been training me. I know the commands "sit", "no", "leave it", "kennel", and "off". I am working on "stay", "lay down" and "heel". I am not aggressive with food, bones or toys (whether it be people or dogs). My foster family is impressed with how gentle I am with taking treats from their hand. Snuggles with my foster family are the best and I will be your shadow. I playfully growl when playing with other dogs and bark when someone comes into the house but other than that I am pretty quiet. I do get shy meeting new people but give me 10 minutes and I am fine. Walks are fun and my foster family says I am one of the best dogs they have ever walked on a leash. I get nervous with other dogs out on the trail but am not aggressive. Finding a furever home would be pretty cool and I am ready for it. If you are wanting a smart, cuddly pup that is fully house and crate trained, good on a leash and knows basic commands, I am your guy. Are you my new family?

Sure, I have limited feeling and movement in my hind legs, but I love life just the same! I mean not only do I have a wonderful wheelchair that allows me to run around but I also get to do about 10-15 minutes of physical therapy, stretches, & exercises every single day to help ensure my muscles don’t atrophy. Some people may not like doing a PT regimen, but I don’t mind it at all because it’s more quality time with my people. I would love to find a family that would also bring me to a chiropractor, acupuncturist, and even swimming!! Oh my gosh not only is playing fetch in the water is SOOOO much fun but I am an excellent swimmer! I do not like a lot of commotion and I’m a bit shy around new people especially if they get too close, but I love to be with MY people and I’m getting braver every day! I have a high prey drive so cats are probably not a good fit for me; I’m good with kids as long as they don't try and climb on me; and I do well with most other dogs although I can be a bit selective with small dogs. But mostly, I am easy going! I am a super smart boy who’s not only potty, crate, and leash trained but I know a bunch of commands like “down”, “kennel/crate”, “outside”, “wait”, and a release word “ok”.  Also, I have learned how to go up and down stairs! I can climb 3-4 steps of any surface on my own, and a full flight of carpeted stairs on my own if supervised. Sometimes I need a little help to get started if the landing is slippery like vinyl or hardwood. Ideally my forever home doesn't have a lot of stairs inside and going outside.  I am a happy, playful, and very loving boy who loves giving hugs, kisses, & snuggles, playing fetch in a huge yard, going to the dog park, playing with my toys, going for leashed walks, getting lots of belly rubs, and eating treats especially fruits & veggies! YUUUMMM!!! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, I also love to practice Barn Hunt…I may not be able to compete, but I sure do have a great time practicing! Hee, hee!! Anyway, I am an incredibly sweet bundle of love who is simply looking for patience and unconditional love from a committed fur-ever family that not only will NEVER give up on me but who will help me continue my physical therapy routine and keep me safe. I promise that I am totally worth it, and I will love you more than you could EVER imagine! Love & snuggles, Galleta. *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. 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. 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.
