About Nellie
Status: Adopted!
Species: Dog
Rescue ID: mn49
Housetrained: Yes
In September 2012, Nellie will attend our Saturday adoption events: 9/8 and 9/15 from 12:30p to 2:30p. Saturday events are located at UrbAinmal 2106 Lyndale Ave. S Minneapolis (9/8) and Pet Stuff in Minnetonka (on Excelsior Blvd) (9/15). We hope to see you there!
Nellie is about 2-3 years of age. She was rescued from a MO puppy mill that was being foreclosed. She was abused and neglected and extremely fearful. She is great with other dogs & getting more used to accepting love from humans every day. She is learning how good life outside of a puppy mill can be! Nellie LOVES to go on walks. She stops often to observe whatever is going on. She has also learned that she loves to run laps and wrestle with her fellow fosters. Nellie would enjoy life in a home with a dog that will initiate play and with respectful children. She needs a home that has love and patience as she continues her journey to the life she deserves. For more information, please call us at 952-929-0777.

PLEASE NOTE: Underdog Rescue will only return phone calls from the following area codes: 952 - 612 - 763 - 651. If you are calling from another area code and live within 60 Miles of Minneapolis, please leave a local telephone number or we will be unable to return your call.
Underdog Rescue animals are fostered in individual homes. While they are in our care, they are part of our families. We work on training, crate-training and socialization prior to adoption. Each animal's behavior has been thoroughly evaluated and we have a firm sense of their temperament and personality. All of our foster animals are fed a premium diet of either Nature's Variety, Canidae, Wellness, or Solid Gold pet food. Each is given lots of love, as well as bones, toys and pig ears! We look for homes who will continue to give each adopted animal the wonderful life that he or she deserves! Underdog Rescue only adopts within 60 miles of Minneapolis, MN.
Not able to foster or adopt right now? Please consider sponsoring me. Your support will help with food and medical costs for me until I find my forever home!
*PLEASE CALL RIGHT AWAY IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO MEET/ADOPT ME! ALL OF OUR FOSTER ANIMALS CAN BE SEEN BY APPOINTMENT. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT UNDERDOG RESCUE, PLEASE CALL 952-929-0777*

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.
