My name is Redford and am about 11 months old. I am so excited that my birthday is coming up and I hope I will find my family by then – what a wonderful birthday present that would be! I weigh 25 pounds and am hoping to lose a pound or two, maybe you can help me!
I would describe myself as sweet, friendly and good with other dogs, as well as people and children. I would be a great family dog! I love to cuddle and have my belly rubbed. I also like to run around the yard and play with the other dogs. Being outdoors is one of my favorite activities and I love to play in the toddler pool and dig a little in the cool ground on these hot summer days. I even love catching scents with my Beagle nose and will howl when I find something good. Everyone needs to know!
I am still a puppy and have lots of energy. I want to be around people and pet friends all the time, there are so many fun things we can do!! We can go to the park, go on a run, window shop, go to the lake, whatever you like. The possibilities are endless! I would love an active person or family who would love to go on daily adventures with me. Doesn’t that sound fun?!
I continue to work on my potty training and I know that with a patient family, I will get it! I am currently working on “sit,” “down,” and “settle down.” Since I am energetic pup, commands are good for me. If you are looking for a silly and young pup who enjoys life to the fullest, I am that dog!
Many of our dogs are rescued from commercial breeders where they spent their lives getting comfort from their canine friends. In turn, most require another companion dog in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog, and do not currently have a dog residing with you, please understand that your home might not be the right fit for many of our dogs.

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:
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.
