FUN CITY DOGS

Hi there! Raymond is the name and cuddling with you is my game! I am a 2-year old Chihuahua and am 5 pounds of cuteness!

Let me tell you about myself. I am quite the lovebug. Once I get to know you, I want to cuddle all day. I am a relaxed boy and am content being by your side. I have grown very fond of belly rubs and rump scratches. I will even lie on my side and kick back my legs in joy. Add a little sunbathing to that and I am in doggy heaven!

Since I am somewhat of a timid boy, I would love a home with children who don't run at me! I am so small and when someone comes at me quickly I worry they might squish me! I am hoping for a family who will be patient with me and simply love me and all my little quirks. I do a silly little howl/whine when my family leaves and returns home – I am very attached to my people and love you with all 5 pounds of my teeny tiny body.

I do really well with other dogs, though I would prefer a home without puppies because they tend to try and tackle me. I have recently been cuddling with my foster mom's resident dog and the other day I even tried to play with her!

I do fantastic if I go to the bathroom on a schedule and about every 4 hours. I can sleep in my kennel all night long with no messes. I also LOVE sleeping in bed and get very excited for bedtime and cuddles. I dream of the day my forever family adopts me. I see my tail wagging and a smile on my face. And you, I see you! I simply want to be by your side, wherever you are, loving you with everything I have! Could you be the family of my dreams?!

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.
