German Shepherd Dog puppies and dogs in Minneapolis, Minnesota

-

Hemi came from our local animal shelter with her puppies (who have already been adopted). She is a sweet girl and loves to play with other dogs. She pulls a bit on the leash but loves to go for walks. She has not been in a home setting, so she would need to be train for indoor manners. Hemi is heartworm negative, spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, and ready for her new home! This furbaby is located at Animal Harbor in southern middle TN. You can apply at www.animalharbor.org. If approved, we will facilitate a virtual meet and greet and answer any questions you may have. We partner with the awesome transport service company Rescue Riders to safely and professionally move our animals to their loving new homes!

Hi my name is Ace! I’m about 8 months old and around 45 pounds. I love playing ball and hanging out with my brother Jack. I love being loved and will cuddle you all day. I sleep in my kennel and I’m doing great with potty training. When you meet me, I’ll be shy at first but overtime will warm up to you. I haven’t had the best of luck with humans, so I may take my time but I’m worth it. Can’t wait to be with you for forever. I love other dogs and will need a dog friend in my forever home.IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats.

Hello my name is Rory! I am a 4 month old puppy! I currently weigh 17lbs! My foster family sent off my DNA to Embark to get a better guess at the question of what am I?! As it turns out, I am mostly a German Shepherd! That must be why I am so smart. I am very treat motivated to learn new things! I know things like “sit” and I am working diligently on “heel.” I spend most of my day playing with my favorite toys or my foster brother, Louie! If you have a dog in your home already that I could play with that would be wonderful! Once I’ve got my puppy energy out I am happy to curl up on the couch for a good snuggle session. I love meeting new people but when my foster mom takes me out at night I am on high alert! I am getting better each day at asking to go potty, soon I will be fully potty trained! I sleep in my crate at night without a peep. I’m ready to find my forever family!IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats.

Meet the beautiful Juno! This girl is sweet as can be despite being found on the street with a terrible flea allergy. Her finders took her in for a month and got her back to health. She’s playful with other dogs and she plays so nicely with them big or small. She’s also good with cats and kids! She loves the water pool at the rescue and she’s very laid back being out in the main yard with the dog pack. Juno’s finders reported that she’s house trained, crate trained, and completely fine with you taking even a high value bone from. She’s the perfect family dog! Juno is about 4 years old and 62 pounds, and she looks like a German shepherd mix.IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats.

Purebred German Shepherd. Cooper is a super sweet 12 week old purebred German Shepard puppy with lots of energy. We recently adopted Cooper but unfortunately don’t have the time and space due to a recent job change and relocation. He is the sweetest and extremely loyal so we would like to find him the family he deserves. Please reach out for more information.

Hi! My name is Ripp and I bet you are wondering what an adorable puppy like me is doing up for adoption. I came to The Bond Between at only 6 months with some concerns for back leg weakness and a heart murmur. Recently I was diagnosed with fibrotic myopathy which means my muscles do not heal properly and become dense making it difficult for them to contract and do their job of moving when I want them to. There is no medical intervention to treat this so I am just learning to get around without full use of my back legs. However, since coming to rescue I've built up a lot of muscle with regular exercise and at home leg stretches so I am getting around, jumping into vehicles, and climbing stairs like any other puppy my age. The vet also noticed a heart murmur but the cardiologist says it's nothing to be concerned about. None of these things slow me down in the slightest, I am pain free and absolutely digging life! Speaking of digging did I mention how much I love digging in the mud? I am the happiest puppy in the world but I am most happy when I am causing chaos. I chase leaves, balls, squirrels and I even do a very good job of keeping up with my foster brothers. My foster mom thinks I don't even know I'm any different than any other dog. I am a pure bred German Shepherd which means I am high energy and very smart so I will need a family that can keep up with me and work on training to keep my mind busy. I am also very loveable, and loyal I give kisses and love cuddling after a busy day of chewing bones and playing. I am sometimes very clumsy and always very goofy, I do a lot of talking to my people and other dogs, I love when I get attention and I know a few cute head tilts and whines will get me a lot of "awws and attention from people. I am completely potty and crate trained but am working on leash manners and to not be so mouthy when I'm playing or bored. I get along great with other dogs and considering my age I would likely adapt nicely to other small animals in the home. I am 75lbs and still working on putting on weight and will definitely be a large dog when I'm all grown up. I may require a little extra work and commitment someday but I promise to pay you back with love in spades. Accepting applications for my new best friend today! Medical Bio: "I would love for my furever family to know a bit more about my medical history! I do have fibrotic myopathy, but at this time my mobility hasn't been getting any worse and I manage as best I can. Management of this with pain meds if they were ever necessary could be an option for me at some point in the future. I was also diagnosed with a heart condition called a ventricular septal defect which is essentially a hole in my heart and an associate heart murmur. Don't worry, they say it's really small and the cardiology specialist says they "don't ever expect this to be a concern for Ripp" Score. My adopters should know it may be recommended to have my heart checked annually for an echocardiogram for monitoring. Grain inclusive diets will be recommended for me and if a home cooked diet is preferred, a board certified veterinary nutritionist should be consulted."

Hi, my name is Dora. I am from a local MN shelter. Dora is a sweet and bold girl! She is curious, playful, and enjoys a day full of adventure (unless it has to do with water, she's still exploring if she loves it or not)! She loves to be with her human friends! She does well with our resident dog (she has not been introduced to other dogs yet, but slow intros would be best for her). She is curious about our cat and with continued positive interactions, she could do well. She is vocal when she is nervous and she does not like her kennel (when in it, she does bark a lot). She is a puppy and will benefit from continuous positivie training with behavior but with positive reinforcments, she will do well. She is working on her potty training and doing really well! She will stand by the door to let us know when its time to go out. She knows sit and working on shake. Dora is the absolute best girl who will follow you on any adventure. She loves to please and is food motivated. She loves to play fetch and loves to run in our fenced in yard! From the Vet: My foster noticed I was drinking more water than normal so we mentioned it to the vet when I got spayed. Good news is that my labs all cam back normal so there was no indication of underlying disease. I will likely need between 2-6 cups per day depending on activity level, however if I am drinking more than this it may be an indication that I am needing more mental enrichment in my environment to avoid this. My furever family should know about this so they can monitor it and consult a primary vet at their cost after adoption should any issues arise related to this behavior. Can't wait to meet you!

He is a good dog, he is very active and he like to play a lot. He know some commands, like right paw, left paw, sit, Dow, stay, outside, park, kennel, eat, tells when he want to go to the bathroom,knock the door when he is ready or wants to get inside. He don’t bark a lot he is not a noisy dog, if dogs are barking to him while we take him for a walk he just look at them and he ignores them but always alert if they trying to attract. He is so sweet playful! And he needs more training for better understanding. And he need a more big place to live with a big yard to play.!

Gunner is an adorable sable male GSD. Gunner lost his mom suddenly and needed a place to go, so we took him in.

Gunner should be the only dog in the home at this point in his life. He is crate trained, neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. Experience needed for Gunnar, he’s a great dog, but needs a strong handler.

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.    DOB: 02/08/2021 Requires another dog in home: No, picky about her friends Okay with dogs of all sizes: Not good with small dogs - read more in profile  Okay with cats: No, dog savvy cats only Okay with children under 12 years old: Older, considerate kids only Requires a fenced yard: No Note: dogs must always be leashed whenever outside of a contained area. Invisible/ underground fencing is not recommended for most rescue dogs. Hello, my name is Raquel. I am a stunning, wrinkly-faced young adult female Belgian Malinois/Boxer mix with an adorable underbite who’s the perfect mix of energetic and relaxed. I am an unpredictable gal with a high prey drive so cats are not a good fit for me; I’m reactive when it comes to other dogs or unknown/sudden sounds like bikes whizzing by etc.; and I’m a pack follower so if there’s a fight, I may feel compelled to join the chaos. That said, I went to a training facility where there were many other dogs and I did great so I think with time, patience, and continued training I may overcome these ‘quirks’ of mine!! Hee, hee! Anyway, my favorite activities include cuddling with my people; going for leashed walks; snoozing on the couch; eating; playing with squeaky toys; chewing on bones/sticks; chasing the cat; chilling with my canine sib; running zoomies; and barking at strangers outside! I don’t like a lot of commotion and have been known to bite if someone comes into the house when foster mom is not home. I am, however, a very smart girl who will not only give myself a kenneled ‘time-out’ if I’m barking too much but I am potty trained and I know commands like “sit”, “down”, “kennel/crate”, and “heel”! Seriously, how brilliant am I!?! I am a great listener too which makes training a lot easier! Hee, hee!! I know that I’m a bit unpredictable right now but I’m still young and I really am a sweetheart who simply wants to find unconditional love in my own furever home with a patient family who will NEVER give up on me! My heart is SO full of love that I really want to share with YOU…please be my new family, I assure you I’m worth it! Love Raquel NOTE: Raquel has had a DNA test and is 38% Belgian Malinois, 18% Boxer and 17% American Pitbull Terrier Note that this dog has been treated for heartworm  and will need monthly heartworm preventatives year round for life.  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. 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. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit.  Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home.      ***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.

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.
