Penelope was rescued from life in a puppy mill in November. She was in terrible shape when we first saved her. Her eyes were covered with a blue film from having been dumped in insecticide. After receiving much-needed vet care, she is well & ready for her very own home! Penelope is about 2-3 years of age. Here is a note from her foster mom: "Penelope is a fabulous dog! She is very sweet and quiet and is doing great on her potty training. She is fully crate trained. Penelope loves attention and when she is happy her whole back half wiggles (not just her tail) Penelope loves people and kids of all ages, but is a little shy at first. As soon as she warms up you will be her best friend for life!" To fill out an online adoption application please visit our website.

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.

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.
