Hello, I’m Sally! I’m a petite, adult Boxer looking for my forever family! I’ve been making some really great strides with my foster family and am really blossoming into my own! I’m pretty laid back and can be shy, but I’ve warmed up to my foster Mom and will come to her when she calls. I even seek her out for some belly scratches! I like to hoard things, ya know, for safe keeping. I really enjoy snatching socks, shoes, hats, gloves- basically anything within my reach! I like to chew, but I’ve come a long way with that and am learning to not chew on those things that don’t belong to me!
I will chase a squirrel or two, so keep an eye on me! I’ve done really well on a leash; with the occasional new situation that makes me take pause, but once I’ve determined it’s fine I’ll continue on. I love being in my crate so much so that my foster Mom has started to keep it closed when she’s home just so I’ll spend more time out and about and not hang out in my crate. I haven’t learned about snuggling yet, but I hear it’s wonderful and I’m sure I’ll enjoy it once I figure it out! I’ve been kicking potty training’s butt while on a schedule.
I get nervous around loud noises and commotion, so I’ll probably thrive in a quieter home. I am amazing with all dogs and I met a cat once. It didn’t like me, but I didn’t have a problem with it. I’m small for a Boxer, but that just makes me cuter! I hope to become a part of your family so I can truly flourish!
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.
