Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting. 

Keep checking back for upcoming events I will be attending!

Hello there!  I’m Nora.  I’m a 60 lb Bloodhound.  I’m a very friendly little lady who just loves hoomans!!!  Well, okay, as a Bloodhound who weighs 60 lbs, I’m not exactly “little” but with pawsome ears like mine, who cares about that?  Aren’t my ears amazing?!  Not only do they make me super cute, but they help me be a really good listener for my hoomans too! 

I am a very good girl.  Do you want to know why?  It’s because I do my business outside like all good proper ladies do.  I am also crate trained, so if you had to use one, I’d be okay because I know what they are all about. 

I also really like me some bones and rope toys!  They are fun to play with and if you play tug-o-war with me I bet I’d beat you!!!!  Oh, and if you have some doggie treats that’d be cool too because they are so yummy. 

And guess what else?  You know that leash thing?  I’m super good at it, so if you’re up for lots and lots of walkies, that’d be pawesome!  A girl needs her exercise you know.  I mean I like to keep my figure and with how much I like me some doggie treats, a walkie is probably a good thing to take!  Plus, there are loads of fun things to look at too.  Oh, and all the smells!!!! 

When I’m not showing my hoomans how great I am doing my business outside and doing on walkies, I also know “leave it” and “outside”.  Isn’t that amazing?  I know you’re impressed!

I haven’t met the little hoomans or those cat things but I do like other doggies.  Although to be honest, bigger dogs are better.  My beautiful long legs tend to sometimes step on the little dogs and I don’t want to smoosh them because then I’d feel bad.  So, maybe it’s better if I am around the bigger doggies.  Although, if it were just you and me that’s okay too.  Then I’d get to hog all the fun hooman snuggles all to myself! 

And, if you need me to keep you safe, I can do that too because you see, when I see strangers that are outside, I will do barkage to tell you so that you are aware.  And if I do barkage, I might scare them away too, so that’s why I do that.  I also do a bit of barkage sometimes if I’m alone.  You see, I just love my hoomans, so it’s more fun if I get to be around them. 

So anyway, that’s a bit about me.  I’m a very friendly girl that is looking for her furever family who I can love furever and ever and ever.  Plus, I’ll share my ears with you and keep all your secrets too!  Who wouldn’t that?  Come on!  I know you want to meet me!  I cannot wait to meet you!

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.
