Story
Meet Edna, the most sincere smile in town! Edna was found as a stray, still lactating from the last litter she had. No one ever came looking for her, even though it appeared during her spay that she had had multiple litters in her young life. Edna is unique because she has only one eye (from a previous injury) and is also blind in the eye she has. She is very good for her daily eye cleaning and drops that she gets for dry eye. She also has a cleft lip that she was born with, a broken canine tooth, and a unique smile that captures your heart as soon as you see it. Edna does a “submissive grin” and bares her teeth when she’s excited-- because of her cleft lip, her smile is exaggerated and even more endearing. When she meets new people they need to know about her “smile” so that she doesn’t startle them, and since she’s blind she commonly runs into you with her teeth out. She has never tried to bite or given any indication of aggression towards people that she’s had a good introduction to. She has recovered from the ear and skin infections that she arrived with, loves baths and feeling pretty, but still needs a little work being comfortable having her nails trimmed. Edna is not a purebred Frenchie, but is likely some kind of mini-bully mix. Foster mom just sent in a DNA test so we’ll see what she really is soon. She’s bigger than an average Frenchie (about 35 pounds) and has a full tail! Her tail wags nonstop when she’s excited, and because it’s a stiff bully tail that’s curved down, it makes it nearly impossible for her to sit down all the way for treats. She has some pretty severe elbow dysplasia that bothers her sometimes in the morning, but she is able to get around well and is happy as can be. She is on a joint supplement and omega-3 supplement as well as a calming probiotic. Even though she is blind, she navigates the world without a care. She knows her way around her foster house with no issues. She uses stairs to get outside to the yard, but isn’t quite brave enough to go through the dog door on her own. She will sit at the door and whine when she needs to go out and has never had an accident in the house. She also loves to spend time in her crate. It seems that she lived her entire life in a crate previously, and sometimes the big wide world is overwhelming and she seeks safety in her safe space. She also self-soothes by suckling/chewing on blankets or any other soft item she can get her mouth on. She must be supervised or any soft objects/dog beds/clothing will be destroyed. Loves: playing Bitey-Face with her foster brother, male dogs of all sizes, any and all food, car rides, walks, getting loves from humans after a safe introduction, tearing up cardboard, doing a smiling, happy dance when she gets excited Dislikes: female dogs, new humans entering her home (but she warms up quickly when she feels safe), aggressive or pushy dogs—she will hide and cower in fear when she feels dominated, likely due to being beat up in whatever breeding situation she came from and that caused her to lose her eye Edna has some anxiety from her previous life experiences and has 2 extremes—happy, smiling, wagging Edna who is so excited she can’t control her wiggles, to sad, scared, damaged Edna who came from a really tough situation where she definitely didn’t feel safe and where she experienced unknown trauma that haunts her sometimes still. Most of the time she is just happy and content, and when she has a rough go just needs a little extra love and a safe space to chill where she knows she’s protected. She is her happiest when she gets to play with her foster brothers then sit and chill and get scratches from foster mom. ------ previous notes Ears and skin: great-infection cleared up so it seems those were just neglect issues. I've got her on Wellactin and Hill's Healthy Mobility and she's doing great. Eyes: definitely KCS and the Tacrolimus makes a big difference, but there is no hope of regaining vision and I think she'd be much more comfortable long term having an enucleation. Her eye still gets really dried and goopy overnight, even with artificial tears. Still have final recheck with ophthalmologist later this month for the final word. She's very good about letting me flush the eye and she sits for "drops" Oral: dentist said ideally her broken canine should be removed or root canal. Doesn't seem to bother her currently, but likely to in the future. General: deep dive in her record and call to the shelter/ spay clinic led to finding out she never got the distemper combo. Shelter did rabies, vet did bordetella at spay, but no one ever did DHPP so she actually needs that. She also has terrible elbows and knees. Her patellas give her issues sometimes when she first gets up, but she's a champ at "walking it off" and I haven't seen any skipped steps or limping once she's up and moving. Behavior- if you need to know this yet- she's a mixed bag of chill and a complete stress case. Trazodone+300mg of gabapentin for 2 days is not enough to allow for nail trim. She chews on any fabric she can get- beds, blankets, carpets, clothing.... There are holes in every blanket in my house because she's so quick. It's definitely a soothing behavior for her. She's also a shoe eater and weirdly, bras-she chews the straps and any zippers. She won't play with toys or chew any non-consumable chews. She does love sticks whenever she can get them before I pick up the yard. As far as other behavior, she gets so overstimulated and it's hard for her to snap out of it-- she wags her tail so hard she almost tips over, and gets hypoxic because she forgets to breathe. When it's with another dog, she's totally overbearing and pushy. She's good natured with people, even when she's really excited, but her energy with other dogs is difficult. We've had great success with larger males, but smaller males and any females we've met so far are a hard no. She did also kill one of my dumb chickens that got out (really not her fault, but she was like a panther), so a no for smaller animals. Don't know about cats. She's very hesitant about new people coming into the home, but if they are dog savvy and don't come at her in a dominant way (pet her head from below, don't lean over her) then she's fine and warms up immediately. Non-savvy people are freaked out by her submissive smile and lack of depth perception- it means she WILL bump into you with teeth, but she has never truly tried to bite. If someone comes from above and startles her she'll snap a warning snap then immediately smile and wag and try to get oriented. She's clearly been beat up, either by dogs or humans, and if she gets "reprimanded" by my "fun police" dog when she's being pushy, she immediately puts herself in a corner and cowers. It's heartbreaking. Personally I think she'd benefit from Prozac, at least for a while. She's great in her kennel, and she loves to just hang out in there with the door open. I feed her in there because of my other dogs, and she happily runs right in. She'll also put herself in any other kennel or box that she comes across. Utah Edna was transferred from a shelter after she was picked up as a stray. She is completely blind and has a large, healed wound clefting her entire left side of her face. Despite these challenges, Edna is the happiest dog ever. "Edna is a 2-to-3-year-old, intact female, black and tan French Bulldog who is in need of a loving rescue. She was brought in by Animal Control on 03/07/24 after finding her wondering around in Hooper. Edna is missing one eye completely, and the other seems to have no sight either. We suspect her lost eye and the large scar on her nose are from a long-ago injury. The roof of her mouth is completely intact. Edna's goopy eye and agitated ears hint at possible allergies, but she remains resilient and sweet. Additionally, she may have luxating patellas and gets over heated and tired after a short walk. She definitely has been bred several times. Despite her challenges, Edna is incredibly brave, fearlessly exploring her surroundings even though she cannot see. She walks well on the leash with little guidance and appears to be house trained. She doesn't seem to mind the other dogs or cats when she walks by their kennels. Edna is full of character - she loves butt scritches and to be doted upon. If you go near her face, she will quickly turn her head back and forth to get her bearings. She has her mouth open, but never uses her teeth.

**Special Needs** Quinn is a 5 months and weighs in at 11 lbs! She is a beautiful French Bulldog puppy! Unfortunately, she has limited feeling and control of her back end. She can't control her urine or feces. She is comfortable using her wheelchair and loves to play with the other dogs at her foster home. She likes to go out in the yard with the other dogs too! She loves bones and stuffies! She is a feisty little girl and likes to give kisses. She is definitely worth the extra work!

Who is ready for a little Frenchie bundle of joy! Tater is only 2 years old! He is learning about toys, doggy door and going potty outside❤️🐾🐾. He sleeps well in his crate at night but really enjoys being out and about with his dog buddies. He would do best with a doggy friend that he can hang out with and play tug! Tater is loving the snow. Look in photos! Tater is neutered and up to date on vaccines. He will be a fantastic addition to your home if you love a goofy little Frenchie🐾🐾

Hello there, I'm Fiona! I just had my spay surgery and 10 teeth pulled on 02-07-25, so I am healing and will be ready to meet you soon! I absolutely love people, and being the center of affection. I get along really well with my two Foster dog siblings. I'm working on potty training, and I am crate trained. I do well on leash for short walks, and my very favorite activity is being curled up with you and giving lots of snuggles. I'll do really well as an only dog, and can also share with other dogs as needed. I don't know too much about where NOT to go potty yet, but my Foster Mom takes me outside LOTS and I do know how proud she is when I use the grass for potty time. With patience and time, I think I can learn, because I am really good about keeping my crate and playpen clean.

GREETINGS, *snort* *snort* ... I am Aurora, the spunkiest Frenchie (mix) you'll ever meet! I am guessed to be around 5-6 yrs old and 22 lbs and I am good with dogs, kids and cats! I just moved here from CA and am loving life in CO! I was just introduced to something called "snow," and wow(!) is that fun to play in! The most important thing you need to know about me is that I love affection! If you don't have time for a lapdog who insists on giving you constant kisses, I am not your gal! I was a breeder mama so I am loving this new life with people who care about what’s best for me. I was recently spayed and am now ready for a new home. If you're looking for a curious, confident, and hilarious addition to your life, you definitely should come and meet me in Denver!

Bonnie is a sweet and cuddly 6 yr old French bulldog. Sadly she is missing her left eye, but that doesn’t slow her down. She just looks like she is "winking" at you. She is good with some dogs, loves attention from her people, as well being held by them. She is a little lovebug and waiting for her new family in Windsor!

Story
Shrek is a 30# happy bouncy potato boy! He is looking for a family to wrestle with and give lots of snuggles! Shrek doesn’t care much for dog toys, he’d much rather play with you. Humans are his favorite toys! :). This little guy is recently neutered and picking up potty training very quickly. He is wearing a diaper during this transition, and tolerates it, and the cone, pretty well. He is currently getting eye ointment for an eye injury (that is healing well, with a great prognosis) and doesn’t fuss too much. Shrek is learning the leash, and will need his new family to teach him how to not to pull so much. When he is not bouncing for your attention, wrestling or doing walks, Shrek will chill out and rest peacefully. While he snorts and snarfs during playtime, he is quiet as a mouse when he is resting / sleeping. Shrek will sleep through the night, and let you know if he needs to go out for potty. He has been really good about holding his potty for the morning potty walk. This guy is a very special boy, and would love a family of human toys to call his own.

Story
Hi. My name is Poppy, and I am a Pug/Chihuahua mix.  I am 14 months old, weigh about nine pounds and everyone says I am cute as a button and full of personality. I love to play, take walks, ride in the car, and snuggle. I have a lot of foster mutt siblings at my foster home. I like most of them, but one is really big. Foster mama says he weighs thirty pounds! She tells me he is very friendly, but I am not so sure of that, so I have to show him who’s boss. Foster mama says I can be protective of my favorite human around the other resident mutts. She says it's understandable because I didn't have the easiest past and so I want to make sure I keep tabs on the nice humans.  My best fit forever family or human would be a patient and loving adult or adults, maybe with another dog my size.  I like treats, lots of cuddles, and sleeping curled up with my human. I also like to go wherever my human is going. Sometimes I dash out the door in excitement, but I come back when mama calls. My new family will have to understand that I am just a little thing. The world can be scary, and I need to show how brave and fierce I am. (Mama says that is the Chihuahua in me.) If you're interested in adopting Poppy, please fill out an adoption application here: https://underdogsrescue.org/adopt-form/ Underdogs is a small volunteer-based animal rescue and we unfortunately do not have the resources to respond to phone and email inquires about our adoptable animals at this time.

Story
Togo is a 4MO Pug mix (we are guessing) weighing about 11lbs.  We are guessing he is going to be about 20-25lbs when full grown.  Togo was found in Kansas, abandoned with 2 other siblings in a field.  They were in a common dumping area so we know they were clearly dumped.  24 hours after finding the 3 pups we found another dog in the same area, who the shelter named Skade. We cannot say for sure, but we are guessing that Skade was their dad because they are all very similar in looks.  Togo and his two brothers, Finn and Moose are wonderful little pups.  They love to zoom around the fosters yard and rough house with each other - like all young pups.  They are very social and happy.  Togo would love to go to a home with another dog to play with and humans to snuggle and love.  He doesn't have to go a home with another dog as long as he gets good exercise and mental stimulation like all dogs do.  While we are guessing they are Pug mixes these cuties would still be great adventure buddies.  They will be the perfect size for adventures and for snuggly lap-dog days.
