Fetch! Ok … here I am! My name Sarabi and I love to play fetch and go on adventures. I am a very smart and athletic girl that would love an active family of my very own.

I am a sweet and cuddly Hound Mix full of love and curiosity. I LOVE people, snuggles, kisses and have an enthusiasm for life. One of my favorite things is spending time outside in the yard, playing by myself, basking in the sun and running around. When I get up in the morning I like to say hello to the sunshine and dance circles in the yard – my people call them my super circles of happiness. I am here to spread joy!

I may be more reserved than the other dogs in my foster home, but that just means I like to take my time to observe and understand the world around me. It would be best if I was the only dog/pet in my forever home. I get along with the other dogs in my foster home for a while but can get cranky. Sometimes I resource guard my people, toys and space, we are working on that so it doesn’t become a problem. My foster family said they wouldn’t really trust me with other pets, so it is just me and you being best friends!

I'm a content dog and am happy to chew on my toys and enjoy some quiet time. If you're busy, sometimes I will even toss the ball around myself and my people said I am pretty goofy!

I'm a little vocal in my crate, especially when I see my humans leave, but I calm down once I know you’re nearby. It would be best if I didn’t have shared walls in my forever home because sometimes I have things to say (bark bark!). I would really love it if my people were home a lot or took me on adventures with them! I am an active dog and would love to explore with you!

Fetch! Ok ... I’m back again. If I haven’t mentioned it, I love playing fetch! I can jump very high and am quite athletic. If you could think of some games to teach me I would love that! I love leaping over the flower beds and little bunny fences.

My favorite activities include chewing on toys, and of course, eating all kinds of yummy food. I know commands like "sit," "come," "leave it," "go potty," and "go to bed." As you can see, I am a very smart girl. I have even figured out leash walking. Oh boy, I would love it if my forever family took me on long walks, perhaps we can learn how to jog together! I would be a great partner if you liked to hike or go jogging.

I promise, with patience and love, I’ll learn to feel more secure. If you're looking for a sweet, smart, cuddly, and eager-to-learn companion, I’m your girl. I can’t wait to steal your heart and be a part of your family.

*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. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter’s expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue. 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.  

If you have other questions about me you can email Underdog Rescue at <inquiries@underdogrescuemn.com>

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:

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.
