Watch out world, I’m looking for my forever family! My name is Lillian but I also go by “pretty girl,” “Princess Lilly” and “What Are You Eating!?”

I was born with a congenital heart condition and because of that I must eat standing up. It sounds complicated but I trained my people very well and they understand how to feed me without any problems. I eat Honest Kitchen and it would be best if I could stay on that because the consistency is perfect for me and it is simple to make.

I’m a very smart girl and I am quick at learning all the important dog things. I love to please my humans so training me will be a breeze! I am doing super well with potty training and I’m working on leash manners.

I absolutely loathe my kennel and will make it very known if I’m put in one – bark bark! I am very well behaved out of a kennel though and sleep in my bed while my people are gone. I would prefer to go with you though and promise to be a good girl in the car! I do love going on adventures!

My favorite thing in the world is my people and I don’t believe in personal space. For some reason everyone who meets me calls me a “Velcro dog” and my people agree. I just love being loved and showing my love. I really hope you have a me-size spot on the couch next to you!

I love kids almost as much as I love food and I’m gentle with the baby in my house.

I also get along with all dogs and LOVE to play! If the dogs won’t play with me I will get a toy and throw it for myself, I’m an independent gal.

If I sound like your kind of dog apply for me!

Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home.

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:

http://www.underdogrescuemn.com/adoptionprocess/

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.
