History: Goldy is a super beautiful girl who was recently welcomed to rescue and will warm your heart with her smile and happy personality. She has her paws crossed to find her forever home soon! A Note from the Foster: Goldy is a quiet, sweet-natured girl who’s still learning that the world can be a safe and loving place. She came to us in rough shape, and while she’s made progress, she’s still adjusting and will need a calm, patient family to help her continue to build confidence. Goldy does well with other small dogs and is also cat-friendly. She’s not a fan of fast movements and can be skittish, so a home without children is best. She’s learning to walk on a leash, though she sometimes prefers to choose her own direction. She’s not currently crate-trained and prefers to sleep on the couch. She’s working on house training and does go outside, but still has accidents indoors. Goldy thrives when she can be near her person and is happiest just quietly shadowing you around the house. She’s not high-energy and doesn’t need a lot of activity—just time, understanding, and a safe space to continue healing. If you’re someone who can offer consistency, patience, and a quiet environment, Goldy could be the perfect companion for you.

History: Marge is a super beautiful girl who was recently welcomed to rescue and will warm your heart. She is working on her trust and confidence and is hoping to find a patient family of her very own soon! A Note from the Foster: Marge is about 12 lbs and very quick on her little feet. She came from a commercial breeder in the south and is one of the most skittish dogs I’ve had so far when it comes to humans. She has been making progress since coming to our house but it takes patience and we go at her pace. Over the last month, Marge has slowly let me get closer to her and give her treats but I still have to toss them on the ground because she isn’t comfortable taking them out of my hand yet. She does sit still and let me pet her every now and then but for the most part she keeps about a 6 foot distance from me in the house and in the yard. She likes to pop her head in while I eat dinner on the couch to see if I’ll share some snacks with her. I try to reward her with food any time she’s in my space. Marge is still working on her confidence with people but she thrives with another dog in the house. She LOVES her foster sister, Mini, a 12 lb female Yorkie. They go everywhere together and love to chase bunnies and hunt chipmunks in the backyard. They take naps curled up together and like to wrestle and play chase every once in a while too. Marge will need a patient family who can go at her pace and I think she would really benefit from another dog who wants her companionship. Her personality comes out little by little and she loves snacks so I’m hopeful that she will continue making progress!

History: Mila is a beautiful girl who needed a second chance at a good life. She quickly wriggled her way into our hearts with how sweet and loving she is and she would make a great addition to a lucky home of her own soon! A Note from the Foster: Meet Mila – The Snuggle Queen with a Side of Sass 💕 Mila is a sweet adult Yorkshire Terrier/Maltese mix (reportedly) with a heart full of love and a tongue that’s always peeking out—thanks to her toothless grin, she’s got a signature look that’s irresistibly adorable. Don’t let the lack of teeth fool you—this little lady is food motivated and never misses a treat! Her favorite pastime? Snuggling close to her humans. Mila is happiest curled up on the couch, soaking in the warmth of companionship. She’s not one for high-energy antics and prefers a calm, cozy environment where she can simply be near her people. She gets along well with other dogs, though she mostly keeps to herself and lets them do their thing. Mila would thrive in a quiet home—perhaps with an older couple or someone who appreciates the joy of a gentle, low-key companion. Potty training is going well, though she’s not a fan of bitter cold and may have an occasional accident when the weather turns frosty. She’s doing her best and appreciates patience and understanding. If you’re looking for a loyal lap warmer with a quirky charm and a heart of gold, Mila might just be your perfect match.

Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.    Cheyenne is an 8&#226&#128&#145pound Yorkie with a tender heart and a blossoming spirit. Deaf and recovering from past ear infections, she’s learning how to navigate the world with curiosity, courage, and the help of the dogs around her. After a rough start to life, she’s finally discovering what it means to feel safe—and her personality gets cuter every day as her confidence grows. When she first arrived, Cheyenne would hide, army crawl when approached, and bark anxiously in her crate. Now, she eagerly approaches the people she trusts, initiates contact and even warms up to new faces faster than expected. She still army crawls when picked up, but it’s clear she wants connection—she just needs time and patience to feel fully secure. Cheyenne absolutely adores other small dogs and learns best by watching and following their lead. A confident canine companion is essential for her continued progress. She also needs a home where someone is around most of the day; being alone, even briefly, is very stressful for her, and she will bark if she can’t see her people. Her silly side is emerging too—she dances on her hind legs at mealtime, proudly carries around toys, leaves, or bits of paper, and growls playfully to get your attention while wiggling her whole butt. She loves car rides and is a perfect passenger, and at night she sleeps curled up next to her foster mom, warm and content. Cheyenne is doing well with potty training on a schedule but still has accidents. She’s learning simple hand signals and would benefit from continued positive&#226&#128&#145reinforcement training tailored to her hearing impairment. A fenced yard is important so she can safely explore, sniff, and enjoy her surroundings. This gentle, goofy, affectionate little girl will thrive with a patient adopter, a calm home, and a friendly dog to show her the ropes. With time, love, and understanding, Cheyenne will reward her family with deep trust, sweet cuddles, and the joy of watching her continue to bloom. 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.

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.  Do you want to meet me? I will be at Chuck and Don's in Eden Prairie, 8022 Den Rd, Eden Prairie, MN 55344 for an Adoption Event on Saturday, February 7th from 12:00-2:00 pm. Please email inquiries@underdogrescuemn.com for questions regarding the dogs. Zander may be small in size, but he’s big on personality! This little Yorkie mix is a playful, fun-loving guy who loves to run, run, run—and then run some more. Backyard zoomies are his favorite pastime, and he’s happiest when he has a furry friend to keep up with. Zander thrives with other dogs and will need a doggie companion in his forever home to show him the ropes of indoor life and to join in his energetic play sessions. Zander is smart and extremely food motivated, which makes learning new tricks and commands a fun challenge. He’s still a bit shy with new people and can be cautious at first, but every day he gains more trust and confidence. With patience, love, and the right environment, he blossoms into a sweet, loyal little buddy. He loves small squeaky toys, chew bones, and anything that encourages playtime. Potty training is almost mastered when he stays on a schedule, and while leash walking is still a work in progress (he sometimes freezes when unsure), he’s crate trained and does wonderfully for car rides. Zander is affectionate, playful, and endlessly entertaining—a clever little guy who will fill your home with love, laughter, and the pitter-patter of tiny paws. He’s looking for a family that understands his need for a furry friend, is patient as he gains confidence with new people, and is ready for a lifetime of play, snuggles, and adventure.
