Meet Gilda a 5 year old 20lb French Bull dog. She is a happy girl who does equally well on a lap or in a bed. She’s quiet in her kennel. Gilda likes to know what’s going on around the house and is happy to rest on a bed, a rug or a lap. She’s recovering from some nasal/palate/dental surgeries so hasn’t ventured away from the home yet.

Gilda LOVES toys such as rope bones and anything she can shake.  She would probably love tugging but is just post dental surgery. She loves to dig through the toy box too. She is working on potty training but is crate trained. She needs a fenced in yard in her furever home. She has not spent much time on a leash yet so she’ll need lots more practice. She’s learning commands for “leave it” and “go potty”.

She’s not a fan of big dogs who get in her face and she is not afraid to let them know! She does great with small dogs; though, she does not seek them out to interact. She will bark when everyone goes downstairs as she cannot do steps yet.

This girl loves attention! Once she is healed well from her surgeries, her health issues should be resolved and it will allow her more freedom to play. She’s looking for a loving home in which to spend the rest of her life. Who can make her dream come true?

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:

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.
