Hello, I’m Quincy, the perfect mix of happy and playful. I am a dashing and lovingly friendly young adult male Lab mix. I quickly connected with my foster family, and I love being around people, although I have not yet met any kids.

I am an athletic and silly boy who can be calm-n-chill or energetic-n-zoomie! I like to play with my toys; sit close to my people on the couch; get belly rubs; squeak & wave around my stuffies; eat treats; gnaw on doggie chews; go on leashed walks; and get lots of exercise; I also don’t mind being in the car.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot to mention that I love to sneak into a bed or chair then pretend I have absolutely no idea what my people are talking about when they ask me to move! LOL!!! I really make my foster mom laugh when I get off the chair – I do a great big streeeaaaccchhh with my back legs lingering on the cushion and eventually work my way off. Just so you know, I do have very good manners when my people ask me to get off the furniture. I also have a very good memory of the comfortable spots so I will find them if I can!

I am a smart people-pleaser who knows what “sit”, “come”, and “down” mean and I’m good at reading the room. I greatly appreciate it when my people let me be part of the action and I’m not easily intimidated or distracted by other dogs when I’m on my walks. In fact, I’d love to have a canine companion at my new home with whom I can play!

I am potty trained, and I sleep in my crate w/the door open, but I don’t like being confined in the crate and I will protest if I am. Think about it, would YOU want to be confined? I didn’t think so! Hee, hee!! I keep trying to befriend and play with the cat with whom I live but it refuses to cooperate and will usually snarl at me! I don’t get it, I’m a nice guy…oh well, I might bark at it to say “Hey, knock it off!!” but I’ve never hurt it…although I’m sure it wouldn’t hesitate to whack ME in the face!! Hee, hee!!

I guess all that really matters is that I’m a great guy simply looking for some unconditional love from YOU…a patient fur-ever family who NEVER will give up on me! I promise I will add amazing excitement to your life and I will love you more than anything in this world!! Love, Quincy

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:
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.
