Schnauzer puppies and dogs in Dayton, Minnesota

Billie is an adorable 5 month old miniature schnauzer who can't wait to find his forever home!  He currently lives with another puppy and 3 adult dogs and loves to play with the others (whether they like it or not). He has been trying desperately to get into the resident pack. He is eager to get pets and belly scratches, but he is nervous when first being touched. He prefers to sleep on the hard floor next to the dogs than on the couch with his foster parent. Billie is currently learning to potty outside, but it may take a bit longer. Due to his nervousness, he should go to a home with children (and adults) than can be patient and gentle.  He is filled with energy, excitement and loves toys and puppy play!

Hello, I’m Anny!  I am a beautiful 2-year-old Schnauzer.  I am very new to this family dog thing because my life until now has only been about breeding little baby Anny's and this new world of nice humans is very unusual, and I’m just not sure of it yet. I am scared and cautious. I don’t like being picked up. I absolutely hate anything pulling my neck so my new humans will have to give me lots and lots of love, patience, space, and safety. I love other doggies, so a sibling will be essential to help me acclimate and build confidence. My favorite thing on this earth is being outside in the sunshine but once I’m out there, it’s very hard to coax me back inside. For this reason, my foster parents keep me on an untethered tie out with a harness so I can roam but they can coax me back inside without picking me up or pulling at my neck. I’m so good about keeping my space clean. I also love eating and teeth bones. It would be helpful if my future family has a fenced yard because I can’t do walks yet and a quiet place that I can ease into. For this reason, I probably shouldn’t be with small children because lots of quiet time and gentle pets are my love language. I know I’m not perfect right now, but I promise with lots of love and patience I soon will be!     Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, dental, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue.

This lady was found wondering in a neighborhood. No one claimed her so she was brought to us. She is a sweet, sweet dog. Very friendly, likes to play and loves attention. She gets along with other dogs but would probably prefer to be the only one, or with one other. She is with a group of pups now and likes to have her own space. She may be house trained but we aren't sure. She does well on a leash and good in a car. She will need regular grooming per her breed mix. She is just a wonderful dog that would do well with any family. A yard is not necessary for her but some outside play and walks are. She is a favorite and we know a family is out there for her. She is located in Tennessee but can be transported to you through Rescue Riders

HI I’m Molly!  I’m an adorable tiny little girl who is just as happy as can be!  I have the cutest smile and when I’m really happy my whole body wiggles like crazy.  If I don’t have the body wiggles then I have the cutest nub wag to show you I want to be friends.  I’m a little nervous with people.  I want so bad to be your friend, but I will stay just a tad out of reach.  I get up my courage though if you bend down to me and I give happy little kisses to your hands and then dance around you til I come back for another round of kisses.   I do like pets though and will give you my belly for belly rubs.  Each day my foster mama holds me and I shake for a few minutes, but then I settle in.  I know that we are working on trust and confidence and I’m getting it pretty quickly!  I really enjoy the presence of another dog and they give me a lot of confidence so I do ask that my home has one.  I’ll be following them and you around the home because I’m curious about things.  If you work from home I make a great companion because I’m usually pretty quiet and will snuggle up with the dog in your home and nap.  I’ve discovered that tv is a pretty interesting thing too and my foster mama catches me watching it pretty often.  I’m working hard on kennel and potty training.  I’m a little too scared to walk on leash yet so I haven’t practiced it much, which I another reason I need a fenced in yard right now.  I haven’t met any kids or kitties yet.  I can say that kitties are bigger than I am so I might be just fine with them.  I think little kids might be a little too loud and overwhelming for me so older respectful kids would be a better fit.  If you have love to give and a little patience then I think we would be great together!  I promise you won’t be disappointed! 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.

Loud or fast movement can be scary for me so I think a home with no little kids would be best.  I would never hurt a fly, but I'd likely be running and hiding in my kennel all the time.  I haven't figured out what toys are for yet.  I think they might be pillows for naps.  When I'm excited I sass my foster mom with my cute little aroo.  Mom doesn't know what I'm saying, but she laughs when I do it!  I haven't learned that leash thing yet.  So far I think it's scary so I'll need you to help me learn that it's ok.  Til then I'll need a nice secure yard so I can do my business.  It doesn't need to be big because I'm a tiny little girl.  If you have a quiet home and can be patient with me then I think we could be great together. I might be small, but there's a lot of love in my heart ready to be shared.     DOB: 10/05/2019 Requires another dog in home: Yes  Okay with dogs of all sizes: Yes Okay with cats: Unknown Okay with children under 12 years old: Likely Weight:  Requires a fenced yard:   Yes, needs a fenced yard Note: dogs must always be leashed whenever outside of a contained area.

Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.    Hi I'm Irene!  I'm a happy friendly lady who's looking to share my life and love! I can found running around my home doing zoomies and jumping against my foster mom's legs begging for attention. I love getting hugs and pets and scratches.  I get the cutest full body wiggles!  I do get a little mouthy because I get a little over excited.  I don't bite down I just find your hand or arm sitting in my mouth haha!  Need a kiss?  I can be persuaded to give you one of those too.  This super happy confident girl is how I am with my doggie friends around.  When my doggie friends aren't around I'm more bashful and unsure.  Because of this I currently ask for a doggie friend in my future home. I'm a pretty inquisitive girl and enjoy exploring my home.  I'm doing great in kennel training and keep it clean.  I've been doing well on potty training too.  The leash is a bit scary, but I'm working on it.  Together I know I can master it so that I can keep on exploring the world.  I haven't met any kids yet, but I think I'd be fine with older kids.  I think little kids might get scared since I can be mouthy like I mentioned before.  I'd never hurt anyone, I just want to be loved.  I can't wait to meet you!
