Having overcome a rough start in life, Buzz can be a little shy when meeting new people. He’ll greet you with a wagging tail, but sometimes that excitement can turn into a low growl as he navigates his insecurities. The best approach? Just ignore the growl, keep chatting, and let him warm up to you in his own time. This clever little guy is as smart as they come, though he can be quite stubborn too! Buzz has a playful spirit and adores his toys and the company of other small dogs. He’s a pro on the leash and is comfortable in his crate, making him a great companion for walks and downtime alike. Buzz is currently working on his potty training and is highly motivated by food—making him a quick learner with the right encouragement. He’s looking for a patient and understanding forever home where he can thrive and feel secure. If you’re ready to give this quirky guy a chance, Buzz is sure to fill your days with joy and love!   *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.

Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.  Hi I’m Dirk!  I’m a handsome scruffy guy who is looking for a family of my very own.  I came here from a shelter in Arkansas where I found myself when my owner passed away.  I wasn’t there too long before I came to MN where I found myself in a foster home.  It took me a bit to open up to my new foster.  I was sad and confused since I had lost my home and owner.  I was lucky though that I got to come here with my sister, Mateo.  I don’t need to be adopted with her, but if you have room in your heart I’d certainly love to be adopted with her.  When we meet I’m shy with new people and need a bit to warm up.  Once I trust you though then I’m a happy guy who loves neck scratches!  I lean into them and rub against your hand like a cat with the biggest smile while I dance in excitement.  I don’t care much about toys.  I do like to run with my doggie friends outside, but I don’t like when they get to wild.  That’s when I bark at them and tell them they need to chill out.  When I’m not out with my friends I can be found chilling out at my mom’s feet or sitting in her lap getting all the good pets.  I think I’d prefer a home that’s a bit more quiet with no little kids.  I just don’t enjoy being overwhelmed by their antics.  I’d love a fenced yard where I can sit and sunbathe, but if you don’t have one that’s ok too.  I am crate, leash, and potty trained, too (on a schedule at my foster home that is!). I’m not very into food and treats, but maybe my foster mama just hasn’t found the right ones yet.  I should also probably tell you that my back legs are pretty bowlegged.  The nice doctor said I was just born that way and that since they don’t bother me or give me any pain that they are ok.  Mama says I’m perfect and I couldn’t agree more! 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.

True to his Chi nature, Spanky loves to be in the spotlight and isn’t afraid to make his opinions known. Whether it’s deciding when it’s playtime, cuddle time, or chore time, Spanky likes to have a say—and he’s not shy about sharing it!   This spunky little guy has a playful side and enjoys romping around, but on his terms. He’s not a fan of other dogs deciding when it’s time to play, so he’d be happiest as the star of the show in a home where he can call the shots. Spanky also has a unique way of “helping” his humans around the house. He absolutely loves being held while you’re doing chores, offering his tiny but mighty presence as your most adorable assistant.   Spanky is currently being treated for a possible tick-borne disease, which may explain why he can sometimes be a bit grumpy. As his treatment continues and his pain subsides, we’re hopeful he’ll feel even better and show more of his happy, playful side. This brave little guy is already making progress and proving just how resilient he is.   Spanky thrives with humans who can appreciate his big personality, respect his boundaries, and give him the love and structure he needs to shine. In return, he’ll offer endless loyalty, laughter, and companionship.   If you’re looking for a pint-sized pup with a larger-than-life attitude and a heart full of love, Spanky might just be the perfect match for you. Are you ready to let this charismatic Chi steal your heart?

Grandma, the resident 'pawlice' of the household, loves to growl in her sleep, keeping everyone on high alert. Getting her eye meds administered requires a small army, as it takes two brave souls to wrangle this feisty furbaby because she acts like a wolverine on steroids. When it comes to walking, Grandma's approach can best be described as a stately hobble, as if she's performing a regal procession. Heaven forbid she's ever caught without her fashionable coat - the indignity would be too much to bear! Breakfast in bed is Grandma's favorite meal, and woe to the soul who dares to disturb her slumber. She's a lover of pets and cuddles, but don't be fooled - her mood can turn on a dime, and the growls and snaps come without warning. Grandma's preferred sleeping spot is under your pillow, where she can keep a watchful eye on her domain. Just be sure not to move a muscle, lest you risk squishing the delicate diva. When nature calls, Grandma will deign to be carried outside, but if you miss her subtle 'I gotta go' cues, she'll happily relieve herself right on the floor. Despite her diva tendencies, Grandma is a friendly gal, but heaven help any canine that dares to cross her. She'll put them in their place faster than you can say 'sit, stay!' Crate trained and full of personality, Grandma is a true force to be reckoned with - a tiny terror wrapped in a fluffy package.

I know my name says Twinkle but I’ve been going by Twinks here at my foster home. I’m a 9-year-old Chihuahua with a sweet, gentle heart, and at just 6 pounds, I’m as tiny as I am loving. Let me share a little about myself so you can see why I might be the perfect addition to your family. I’ve been observing all the happenings here at the foster home.  I have to see who is having a good time and how they go about doing it.  I get along with the other dogs here but I’m pretty independent. I would thrive with another dog in my forever home. Another dog will help me learn to trust, give me confidence and help me get on a routine. I do adore pets and cuddles, also note that I can be shy and skittish in new situations. I will need some time to adjust in new places. And a little secret – I am afraid of men! Perhaps you can win me over, but as a senior I am a little set in my ways. My favorite spot is the little couch, where I love to relax and soak up all the attention. When you pet me, I’ll do a cute little happy dance—it’s my way of saying thank you for the love! I also enjoy hanging out with other dogs, even trying to snuggle up with them sometimes, so I’d love a home where I have a furry sibling or two. While I’m not big on toys, I do enjoy treats and will happily try most of what you offer. I’m working on my potty training and do well when taken outside regularly, but I still have the occasional accident indoors, so I’d need a patient family to help me keep improving. I am a barker however, so no shared walls unless you hate your neighbors – hee hee!  I’m a bit of a flight risk because new things can make me nervous, so I’ll need a fenced yard for my safety. I do know some commands like "Come" and "Outside," and I’ll enthusiastically welcome you home every time you walk through the door! Since I’m so tiny, my new family will need to watch me carefully—especially when I’m on the couch getting pets—because I might try to jump off, and I wouldn’t want to hurt myself. I also have a heart murmur, but that doesn’t stop me from spreading love wherever I go. If you’re looking for a sweet, snuggly senior companion who will adore you endlessly, I’m your girl! I’d do best in a calm home with another dog to keep me company and humans who’ll spoil me with love and care. Could I be your shining little Twinkle?

Welcome Bandit to CCPAL Rescue. Bandit is an Apple Head Chihuahua pup. He is about 2 years old. He weighs about 6 pounds. He likes being held and is a little shy. This boy had a very terrible person for his owner. She was a sexual deviant and he and the other dogs in this house were abused by this person. A good Samaritan stepped in and took all the dogs. Bandit was with foster care until she called CCPAL and we took them into the Rescue. He is a little shy and when he is scared, wants to retreat. He has a nice short coat and the loyalty of the Chihuahua breed. He is good with other dogs and despite his past, he is very loving. He and the others in this group really are doing well and are responding to loving and very normal attention at the Rescue. They are fitting in well with routines and the schedules at the Rescue. The dogs will get daily cuddles and assurance that people are nice and most are very normal. Bandit would be great in a quieter home. I would say a retired couple or a single person wanting a rather quiet and low energy companion animal. He will be getting his neuter soon and he has already gotten his toenails clipped and vaccinations. None of these dogs are fully potty trained but we will be working on really good schedules and crate training at the Rescue. He is currently in Texas at the CCPAL Rescue. His adoption fee is $400 and transport is $200. He could be adopted locally in Texas or we can work with one of the wonderful transporters to get him to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. . Rhode Island and Massachusetts are not states we adopt to because of the regulations imposed by these states Contact Marlene at 210-867-1769 or email to ccpalinquiries@gmail.com if you have questions. Online applications at www.ccpalrescue.org

Baby Bat embodies the personality, uniqueness and likeness of the Batman. First, he works alone. No sidekicks or partners. He prefers solitude and his space. Baby Bat has lived with his foster and her dog pack for 5 years, he gets along with them but tolerates them at most. He would do well in a home where he is the only dog, no children, and adults only. Next, Baby Bat is an apex predator. Which means he needs his sleep and food and not to be interrupted or coddled when given either. Baby Bat is not a lap or cuddly dog. Finally, did we mention Baby Bat is a Chihuahua mix? That's a really important detail! Baby Bat is a great and loyal dog seeking a great family to adopt him! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

This is Buddy, and he can't wait to be yours! Buddy is a sweet young Chihuahua mix that started life off as a feral, until he was caught by a sweet and loving foster. Buddy got the good life after that! Spoiled with treats and given so much love he's developed into a great dog. He's a very friendly boy and does great with pretty much everyone. He would do best in a household with an active family. Buddy does tend to bark at smaller animals so he would do best in a household that doesn't have farm animals or other small pets. Dogs and cats he is fine with, though he has not had much experience with cats. Buddy would do well paired with another calm and confident dog. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX)

And since you're reading this, I'm hoping that you'll consider making ME a part of yours!!!!

I'm probably around 5 months old and I come in at about 15lbs. I love playing and am energetic, ready to share in all your adventures from the mundane daily to your weekend exciting!! I'm good with people, other pups and even the resident kitty. I am working on my house training and do really well with knowing to go outside to potty with only an occasional accident.

I am looking for a foster or my furever family! Please email fostersupport@thebondbetween.org to say YES to fostering me! Select the "Apply for Adoption" if you would like to adopt A portion of my adoption fee has been sponsored by my friends at Tito's Handmade Vodka. The adoption fee sponsorship credit of $250.00 will be applied during the contract process. Hi, I'm Tiny Batman and I'm from Alabama! From his foster: Tiny Batman has been going by Tito with us. I mostly call him silly pet names, so I honestly don't know if he knows any particular name right now :) Because I work from home, I have spent a lot of time with this little guy. He is full of dog love! He is also guarded and nervous around new people. He requires patience and a home that lets the dog decide when he wants attention. He will bark at sounds, new visitors, squirrels in the yard, and other dogs, but as he is building some comfort, this behavior is beginning to subside. 1. He is a very playful dog. He loves to chase a ball and he loves tug of war. He definitely sounds aggressive when he plays, so it takes some time to learn his body language when he wants to play with you. 2. We go on a daily walk and he loves it. He still wants to run in the yard several times a day. I am learning that he is not a fan of rain and you have to go outside with him to encourage him to stay out long enough to go potty. I'm guessing the snow will be similar. He can be leery of new people putting on his leash, so it might take some time for that comfort level to come. I have been using a slip lead, so no collar, and that has been fine. 3. He is mostly trained to use the bathroom outside, but he definitely had some accidents in the first week or two that he was with me-probably nerves. He still has some #2 accidents on occasion (I think it is when I take too long to leave for the walk in the morning). 4. He is very sweet and affectionate and will require a good amount of attention. 5. I have never put him in a crate in my home, but he does sleep on his own in a dog bed through the night. He will also sleep with you if you let him. 6. He likes to chew on bones and even ice. He likes to be busy when he isn't sleeping. 7. I do not have another pet in my home, so I can't say for sure how he would do in a multiple pet situation. It seems like he could be playful with other dogs, but I think a slow, calm introduction might be required. As I understand, he has been around other dogs prior to living with me. I do not know anything about his history with cats nor have I encountered any cats since having him. 8. I feel that an adults only house will be best for him. Small children certainly won't be a good fit for him. It is possible that older kids in the house could be okay. Tiny still needs training and everyone in a home will need a vested interest in his training and success. A home with lots of people in and out and lots of activity will likely stress this guy out and lead to not his best behavior. 9. He seems to do okay on car rides. I haven't tested this too much, but I have had some amount of success on a couple of car trips. 10. He loves to run in a yard, but if you just are able to get him out for walks that will likely suffice. I suppose he will want space to run around the house without a yard though. 11. A single family dwelling without shared walls is probably best. An apartment with shared hallways would be tough on this guy and shared walls might be tough on your neighbors because he is definitely vocal at times. Tiny has a history that includes a scare with a harness, which left him apprehensive about leashes. For now, he needs a fenced yard to explore freely without the pressure of a leash. With patience and love, Tiny will reward your commitment with endless snuggles and affection. Tiny is a very special dog that needs a very special home. He is the absolute sweetest companion! I have seen such growth in him in a short period of time. As he learns to feel safe in an environment, he can and will thrive. Please know that he will need time and patience and maybe a little bit of forgiveness along the way.

Invisible/ underground fencing is not recommended for most rescue dogs. Hello, my name is Jessie and I am the perfect combination of sweet and gentle. I am a timid and shy girl who is making tremendous progress living in a home with a loving family. I have learned so many things – the most important is to trust my people. My people have been very gentle and going slow with me and I have made a lot of progress. She gives me little massages on my head and back – it is so relaxing for me and my people. I have the softest coat and I think you will agree! I am a shy little girl, so having a confident dog in my forever home is required. Another dog will be helpful to show me the ropes, help me get on a routine and help me feel comfortable in my surroundings. Foster mom tells me with a little time and a lotta love, I will come out of my shell and be a great friend to my people. A lot of commotion worry me a bit, so I spend time in my comfy bed watching the activity in the house. Hopefully you have lots of comfy beds for me! Potty training is going great, my foster mom carries me outside and I am good about doing my business on a routine. While I will go potty on a leash, I don't know how to go for walks yet so will need a fence. Maybe there is another dog in the house to show me how to walk on a leash? Hopefully! Anyway, I am ready for my forever. My forever family, my forever home and my forever best friend that will love me unconditionally, not give up on me! I promise I’m worth it and I will fill that hole that you possibly never even knew was there!

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.    Hi there, I’m Fudge! I’m an 8-month-old Pomeranian puppy, weighing in at 12 pounds of fluff and personality. Life’s been a little overwhelming for me so far, but I’m making big strides every day—and I’m ready to find my forever family to keep cheering me on! When I first arrived, I was pretty timid and liked to hide in the back of my crate. But now, I’m getting curious and brave, especially during evening couch time when I love to join the doggy pile. I’m still figuring out new things, so I’ll need a fenced yard to help me explore safely until I’m ready to tackle leash training. I’m crate trained and will bark to let you know when I need to go potty, though I’m still working on being fully potty trained. Sometimes I bark at night or when I’m left alone, but a gentle “quiet” helps me settle down. I’ve discovered I love chewing on cow hooves and nylabones, and I’m getting better at accepting treats—yum! I’m also learning to play with toys and just started chasing a ball. I’m funny, animated, and getting more trusting every day. I’ve even started joining in with the other dogs in the house for activities. If you’re looking for a sweet, spunky pup who’s ready to blossom with your love and patience, I’d love to meet you. Let’s make memories together! *I’m a growing puppy and I have not yet had a lot of experience with crates, kids or cats and I might bark if something alarms me, but I really love to learn and hoping for a family who will take me to a basic obedience class to continue to help me build confidence and dog skills. Ideally my forever home would need to be home during the day to help me with my potty training and not leave me for breaks longer than 3 - 4 hours. If you are looking for a best friend, please fill out the puppy application. The more info you include on the application the better so I can find a good match for my forever home. Get your toy box ready! **Obedience classes are required when adopting this puppy from Underdog Rescue. Many of our puppies have a mama who was not properly socialized before coming to Underdog Rescue. Since coming to Underdog, this puppy has been in a socialized and loving home, but that needs to be continued with its Adopters. Training classes teach puppies the ins and outs of being a pet while creating a bond with their new Adopter. Obedience classes are key to creating a relationship with your puppy while having it be a happy and successful member of society. Proof of Obedience Class registration is required for this puppy before adoptions can be finalized. If you would like some suggestions, we would be happy to send some trainers who have experience with Underdog Rescue, but a Basic Obedience class in your area should work!

Our goal is place puppies in homes that are suited for their individual needs. You may be willing and able to provide a great home, but if it doesn’t meet the specific needs of the puppy, we will not approve your application. We accept applications for puppies until we have a candidate that meets all of the requirements needed for the specific puppy and they have been contacted to review the adoption process as well as agree to all of the terms to move forward. ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there*** Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.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.
