I ’m a little shy meeting people but if you bribe me with treats I warm up in time.  On my walks I shy away from people so it takes me time to get used to strangers. I didn’t get any pets till I came to my foster home. My foster mom showed me how wonderful it is to be petted and curl up beside her when she’s watching tv or reading. If she’s petting my foster sister I nudge my way in cause I want my share. I like the walks my foster dad takes me on and have learned to walk pretty good on a leash. I like to play with toys occasionally. I love the fenced in yard and like to run and play with my foster sister. I’m a sweet and loving boy looking for my furever home. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.  or    *The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

Rocco is a cuddler who loves to have his tummy rubbed. He will lay on his back with one foot in the air while you rub his tummy.  He is a soft and gentle bull in a china shop!  He will need a home with another dog as a companion. He is trained to go outside, and will also utilize pee pads. He does carry that beagle trait and will let you know how he feels about you being gone when you come home and other feelings. Rocco has lived with kids before but he really needs to learn not to jump up on them.    If you have previously applied with us please email adoptionatmars@gmail.com to reactivate your application with new interest.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.  or    *The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

Welcome Stevie to CCPAL Rescue. He is a 16- month old Pughuahua is our best guess. He is a small dog at 15 pounds. He has a great appetite and isn’t picky on his food. He currently eats in his crate. He is very puppylike and playful. He loves the small dog tennis balls. He likes all toys and will take the fluff out of them if he can. He is good in a crate and currently best friends with a small female playful dog in his foster home. He likes to run and play. He is crate trained and, on a schedule, will do all business outside. He is learning the doggy door. He does respond to the word “no” and stops what he is doing when you say it. He is good in a car and now good on a leash. He is friendly with dogs after he meets them. He would prefer a family of small dogs or no dogs would also be fine. When he goes outside to do his business, he does like his family to stay out there while he does his business. He will not go in his crate and will bark when he needs to go while in his crate. He was found as a stray on the streets of San Antonio. He was picked up by a good Samaritan after her day’s work. She saw him before work and after work he was still there so she took him home. He is now in a CCPAL foster home getting his training so he will be ready for his new forever home. He is not a big shedding dog, has an adorable underbite and a very cute curly tail. He is currently in Texas and can be adopted locally. We can also work with one of the wonderful transporters to get him to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. His adoption fee is 400 and transport is 200. 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 ccpalinquiries@gmail.com if you have questions.

I'm Babs, a delightful seven-year-old female pug. I weigh about 16 pounds and am a bundle of love and joy. I’m known for my sweet nature. I adore being talked to and snuggling on the couch or in bed. Wherever you go, I'll be right there following you! I don't jump up onto the bed or couch, but I can jump down easily – my short little legs just don’t have the power to jump up – hee hee! I get along great with both male and female dogs, as long as they're not too big. I can play a bit rough, so my furry friends need to be able to handle that. Chewing on bones and bully sticks is one of my favorite pastimes, but I need supervision with those. I also have a bit of a weakness for chewing on headphones and earbuds, so keep those out of my reach! I’m very food motivated, which makes training me a breeze. Rain and wet ground, however, aren't my favorite—I can be a bit challenging with potty time in those conditions. But on sunny days, I'm good to go! I also do well in the car, so taking trips together will be fun. My favorite activities are cuddling and chewing on bones and bully sticks. I'm not great with young children, though. While I'm potty trained, rainy days can make it a bit tricky for me. I sleep in a crate in the bedroom and stay in a crate when you're gone, but I’m not happy about it and might cry and howl. I’ve never had accidents in the crate, though! I don't require a fenced yard because I walk nicely on a leash and respect the yard boundaries once I know them. I do know the command for "outside" and am generally good with smaller dogs. Having a dog friend is nice, but it's not necessary if my human is home most of the time. I do have some separation anxiety, so I prefer a home where someone is around most of the time. When left in a kennel for up to four hours, I get very upset and will cry and bark. If left out, I might scratch at the door trying to find you.  When I came to MN, I was heartworm positive. I will need to be on heartworm preventative year round, because of that, but it does not affect me one tiny bit! I am an amazing little dog who just needs a lot of love and attention. I truly deserve it! If you’re looking for a sweet, cuddly companion who will be your shadow, I’m the one for you. Let's create beautiful memories together! *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.

Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.    Hi I'm Valeria!  I'm a happy little low rider aka I've got short little legs, but they don't slow me down at all!  I love doing zoomies and I'm so fast!  I love being outside on leash walking with my foster mom.  I get to take in all the smells and noises.  There's always lots of new things to explore and rolling in the grass is just the best! When I'm not busy playing with toys or chewing on bones I enjoy cuddling with my person.  I can be quite the adorable lap dog! I'd love to be the only doggie in your life so I can have all of your love to myself.  I'll give you just as many hugs and kisses as you'll give me.  I haven't met any kids but would probably be fine with bigger kids.  I don't always remember my manners and might jump on little ones knocking them over.  I'm doing well on kennel and potty training and I know I'll master then quickly with your help.  I might bark when first going into my kennel so shared walls might not be best.  I want to make sure your neighbors like me haha!  I should also tell you I love food so I'm told that makes training easy peasy.  Why don't we try it out and see?

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.  Want to meet me? Come celebrate the Grand Opening of Pet Evolution in St. Louis Park at the Miracle Mile Shopping Center (5217 Excelsior, St. Louis Park, MN 55416) for an Adoption Event on Saturday, June 29th 10:30 am -12:30 pm. Please email inquiries@underdogrescuemn.com for questions regarding the dogs. Hey! This girl has seen some things.  I’ve been around a while so you should know that you can’t fool me easily.  While I love people and other dogs, I run the show.  Unless you have chew sticks, then you can run it only until I have it, then it’s back to me, me, me. You see, I was a stray down in Arkansas and Underdog met me there, scooped me up, and brought me to MN - and I gotta say, it's pretty great up here in the North! Now, to find my forever fam... is that you? While I do just fine with the crate, I am still working on nailing the potty training part.  I tested positive for heartworm when I first came up to MN, but I kicked those pesky buggers and now I'm ready to party! Because of that and having to lay low, I haven’t had much practice or experience with a leash.  Now that I’m all cleared for activities, this is something we can work on.  I promise to give it my best go.  Because of those old heartworms, I do need to be on year round heartworm meds, but other than that, nothing more to do! Underdog already took care of that! Speaking of things Underdog took care of, I also had an old eye injury in my left. I can't recall what happened to me, but the good news is the vets helped remove that for me. It was quite painful and as you can see in the pictures of me with two eyes, I held it closed and I'm MUCH happier now! Nothing to do for me now that I'm a solo eyed gal but love me up! I would thoroughly enjoy having a fenced yard, but other pets are optional.  I you do have one (or more), I’d like them to be submissive since I am the queen and all peasants shall bow down to my commands.  Teehee Be warned, I have a shoe fettish, which most queens have also.  So don’t blame me if they go missing but it’s a good educated guess that I’m the culprit.  No matter if they are my size or not. I haven’t been around kids or cats but I’m so chill, I’d likely be ok.  Unless they try taking away my queen status.  Then we’ll need to have a conversation.  If you think I’d fit into your kingdom, go fill out an application so we can rule the land! *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.
