German Shepherd Dog puppies and dogs in Chanhassen, Minnesota

Hello my name is Buffy and I am from Minnesota. From her foster: Buffy is the sweetest girl you'll meet! She loves to go on walks and enjoys running around our backyard and neighborhood park. She's great at walks - will only pull from time to time but responds great to reminders to not pull and never goes after any squirrels or bunnies. She mostly ignores other dogs in the neighborhood but likes to lay around with our resident pup or play with her at the park. She is so calm, rarely barks (we've only heard a couple small barks when new people come to the door) and does amazing in her crate. She spends most of the day snoozing away on her bed or in her crate. She's very timid when you first meet her but the longer you know her the more loving she gets. She loves to snuggle up on our beds to sleep and only jumps up when you pat the bed so she knows it's ok to hop up. She does amazing with our kids and seems to love them more than us! She is going to be a great loyal companion - maybe yours?

Hello my name is Thistle, I'm from Minnesota! Hi, my name is Thistle, but my foster family has been calling me Boden. I am a sweet, snuggly, and goofy pup! I am being fostered at an in-home daycare, so I am around kids ages 2 years to 4 years old plus the resident’s children ages 14 and 19 years old and their resident dog. I am very playful and enjoy pulling out toys one by one from the toy bin, especially the tennis balls! I am always looking for someone to follow around but I’m also happy chewing on a bone or playing with a toy. I’m an expert snuggler and know how to fit myself in the tiniest spaces to get some cuddles! I am working on being potty trained and am an avid bell ringer to be let out! I am still learning that being kenneled isn’t as terrifying as it was when I first got here but I still am not a fan of it. I will bark/whine for a bit before I eventually settle down. I know how to 'sit' and am very excited to show this off when treats and food are involved. Leash training is also going very well. We are working on down and to not nibble on hands or clothing! I’m just a typical puppy that is eager to learn and I can’t wait to meet you!

I am looking for a foster or forever family! Please email fostersupport@thebondbetween.org to sign up to foster! Select the "Apply for Adoption" if you would like to adopt I will likely need a leg amputation followed by some rest and relaxation, but I hear tripods get along just fine! Hello my name is Burdock, I'm from Minnesota! From his temp foster: Burdock (we call him Birdie) a 1 year old GSD mix. He loves people and looooves belly rubs. He is great with my teens, but still has a tiny bit of very gentle puppy mouthiness so might not be good with little kids right now. Birdie is looking to be an only animal, he doesn't want to share the couch with others and thinks that he should have all of the belly rubs. He does like to to romp around and isn't aware of his big size so a fenced yard would be ideal as his leash manners could use some work. He loves rawhide-style bones but doesn't seem to understand toys/balls yet He is a lover who will flop onto you for pets. Just the absolute sweetest.

Who has four paws, the softest fur, the sweetest soul and loves to cozy up with her people?! Why it’s me, Stella Jane! My favorite things in the world are spending time on the couch with my foster mom and dad, playing with my foster dog siblings, and hoarding my toys and bones on my spot on the couch. If your idea of fun is to hang out on the couch and binge watch Netflix or catch a nice long sports game, then I am your girl! I am a nervous girl, I don’t really care to be outside on my leash or around people I don’t know. You see, the world used to be a very scary place for me. But now that I am in Minnesota with my foster mom and dad, I am learning that I don’t have to be scared! It is taking me a while but my foster mom always ensures me I will never not have a cozy couch to relax on ever again! My future family will need to be patient as it takes me a while to get used to strangers. I also would love to find a home with a dog companion to show me the world isn't so scary! --------------------------------------------All our Warrior Dogs will have all age appropriate medical care and vaccines, a microchip, and spayed/neutered if the dog is over 6 months of age at the time of adoption.

Hello there, my name is Bonny. I have been told that I have a gentle soul and a sweet personality. I do great with humans and dogs of all ages! I was rescued from a home that wasn't a safe place for me and my puppies along with many other dogs who also lived there. I raised my puppies and now, they have all found their families! Now it is my turn! One of my favorite things to do is go for a nice walk and then settle in for some quality time with my people. My favorite thing is when you are petting me. It truly is my love language! I am so excited to finally have a family to call my own, could that be you?Bonny is heartworm positive and has completed her treatment. She is awaiting a negative test result which can take place 9 months after treatment per our veterinarians recommendations. She is no longer needing to be on exercise restrictions. Bonny will also need continued use of monthly heartworm preventives going forward. These medical needs will be the responsibility of the adopter. --------------------------------------------All our Warrior Dogs will have all age appropriate medical care and vaccines, a microchip, and spayed/neutered if the dog is over 6 months of age at the time of adoption.

I am a gorgeous, sweet, and very kind albeit shy adult female German Shepherd. Truth be told, I am afraid of pretty much everything in this enormous world from commotion to loud noises like thunderstorms so a fenced yard is a must. Additionally, I am looking for a VERY special fur-ever family who is lovingly patient and will NEVER give up on me! I have not met any cats or kids, but I am good with other dogs and will need another large dog who will help me feel comfortable and secure! I don’t play much but I’m a smart girl who knows what “go potty” means and I’m potty & leash trained. As for the kennel/crate, foster mom doesn’t put me in that cave because I am an amazingly good girl who simply lays in her bedroom, she can even shut the door if she wants to because I feel safe in there. I am very slowly learning what it’s like to feel safe and loved. In fact, I have become comfortable enough with foster mom that I greet her in the morning by putting my head right next to hers while I patiently await lovingly gentle head scratches! Hint, hint! By the way, I also love butt scratches and ear rubs! Just sayin’! Hee, hee!! Anyway, I really am an incredibly sweet girl who tries SO hard to be brave. All I need now is a calm fur-ever home. Sure, I may not ever be that girl that greets you at the door or gives you kisses but I assure you that I have an enormous heart that is brimming with unconditional love and I long to share with YOU!! All I ask is that you give unconditional love in return and allow me the time, space, and patience I need to become comfortable and learn to trust in my own time! I promise that I’m worth it and in time, I will love you more than all the pebbles of sand on the planet! Love, Ellen *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. ***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. 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: The first step in our process is to complete an online adoption application on our website: http://www.underdogrescuemn.com/adoptionprocess/   Note: In most circumstances Underdog Rescue will only adopt within 60 miles of Minneapolis, MN.  All of our foster animals can be seen by appointment with an approved adoption application. Contact us at http://www.underdogrescuemn.com/contact-us/ if you have further questions. 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.
