Kira is a very friendly, happy, playful, stubborn, and sweet 36 lb girl. She will play with all sorts of toys. She has even started playing tuggy with plush toys and likes to play keep away too. She tries to play with the other dogs, but she seems to choose the wrong dog – the one who doesn’t to play with her. She's cool with one of the cats and wants to play with the other and that cat doesn't want to be bothered. Kira – you need to pick better friends!
She’s working on potty training and she is crated during the day. She does bark in the crate when her foster mom gets home. She occasionally walks on a leash and is doing well. She’s learning the word ‘come’ and a command for ‘outside’. She does have dry skin and brittle nails, but she takes fish oil for her skin/ coat and gelatin for her nails. Those supplements will need to be continued in her forever home.
Kira is a very sweet dog who will shower you with love and happiness. Now, who wouldn’t want that?! If she sounds like the one for you, make plans to meet her. She’s looking for her best forever home. Could that be yours?
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.
