Hello, I’m Fiona, a gorgeous and curious young adult female Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier who is, paws down…the sweetest girl you will ever meet!! No, it’s true…I am SO polite when asking for pets and I will even give you kisses! By the way it must be said that MY kisses are second-to-none…I’m just sayin’!! Hee, hee!

Anyway, I’m an easy-going gal who enjoys playing with toys, chewing on bones, and going for leashed walks but I’m very submissive with new people and animals. I have not met any cats or kids, but I’m good with other dogs. I don’t like a lot of commotion or loud noises like thunderstorms and I’m still working on potty training but I’m a smart lady who’s crate and leash trained, and I know what “stay” and “come” mean so I’m confident that a consistent schedule will help me master potty training in no time. This world is so enormous, with a LOT I still need to discover and when it all seems overwhelming, I like to retreat to my kennel where I feel safe but with a lot of loving encouragement, praise, and treats (of course), my tail cannot hide my excitement for life!

All I need now is YOU! I am a lovely girl who is simply looking for a patient fur-ever home with a family who will love me unconditionally and NEVER give up on me! I have a huge heart that’s full of love and I want to share it ALL with you so please be my new family, I promise I’m worth it and I will totally light up your world! Love, Fiona

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.
