Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting. 

Hello, friend! My name is Pencil, or as my friends call me, Penny, and I am a 5-year old/15 pound Beagle.

I am a VERY happy pup and I love to snuggle! I love to run around in the backyard with my canine friends and be part of the pack. It’s so cute when my floppy Beagle ears fly all over the place. I wish I could actually fly, because I am a social butterfly and every day is an adventure with my friends. I love it all!

I am new to home life and warming up to people the more I meet them. I am not a fan of the kennel and would much prefer to hang out with the other pups. I go to the bathroom on a schedule and am doing grrrreat! I would really love it if I lived with another pup about my size and age and we could zoom around the yard or the dog park together. We could be the best of friends and they could teach me the ways of the dog! Wouldn’t that be wonderful!?

I am a silly girl and sometimes get so excited sometimes that I miss judge a jump or turn too quickly. My little body just gets so excited. My foster family loves me and wants you to know I am a great gal! I could be your lucky Penny! Would you like to meet!?

Many of our dogs are rescued from commercial breeders where they spent their lives getting comfort from their canine friends.  In turn, most require another companion dog in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog, and do not currently have a dog residing with you, please understand that your home might not be the right fit for many of our dogs.

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.
