Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Name: Maine DOB: 3/22/2009 Weight: 10 lbs Adoption Fee: $125 This animal is part of our "Seniors for Seniors" program where we offer senior animals adopters an opportunity to adopt a pet at a discounted fee.  Hey everyone! My name is Maine.  I found myself being dumped at the shelter at 11 years old when my family got divorced. They said that was the reason.. but many of the people who met me in the shelter thinks it was an excuse, because it doesn't look like anyone had been caring for me for a long time. I had bad hair loss and hadn't been groomed in gosh knows how long, terrible skin redness, irritation and discharge out of my eye (which they believe I am blind in), and severe dental tartar. When I got to the shelter I was really scared and was labeled as "aggressive". That is FAR from the truth. My foster mom in Texas says I am very sweet and friendly, but I just don't like when people handle me in certain ways that may cause me pain. All in all, it's been a rough road, but I am finally getting a second chance to find a family that will love and  spoil me the way I deserve. I'm still decompressing, so my foster is including all she knows about me so far. The ladies at Ruff Start said they'll update my information once they get it! :) Right now though, I'm trying to adjust to a new foster home and  I love sleeping in my crate at night.  I keep it nice and clean! Although I keep my kennel clean, I'm not totally potty trained outside of it yet. But I'm working on it!  In the meantime if you have questions or are interested in me, please fill out an adoption application at www.ruffstartrescue.org. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal.  Please check out our website, www.ruffstartrescue.org for more details and additional pictures on any of our animals! All Ruff Start dogs and cats are spayed/neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, dewormed, and on monthly flea/tick and heartworm prevention (dogs) as well as heartworm tested (dogs). Ruff Start Rescue is a foster based rescue. Animals are located in homes throughout Minnesota. We do not have a facility where animals are kept.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Name: Doodlebug DOB: 3/4/2013 Weight: 10 lbs Adoption Fee: 300.00 Hey everyone! My name is Doodlebug. I came from Texas originally. A little bit about me...I was in rough shape when I was picked up! I have some disc issues which causes my back legs not to work as well as my front ones.  Dr said that I am fine and I have probably had this a long time.  It's best that I don't jump on furniture or run up stairs. I am not in any pain at all, and if I fall I just right myself, get back up and carry on. I love to get lots of snuggles, hugs and kisses. I have a great personality and will make a great addition to a family.

Story
Lily was our first baby, 12 years ago. She has been a good dog. But 4 kids later, life has gotten very busy and loud for our dog. She does not get the attention she needs and then acts out by accidents in the house. She is a sweet dog, who just needs more time and attention then we can give. She is a good health for her age. She has a sliding knee cap, which cause jumping up in beds and coaches more difficult. We can get records from veterinary visits. If you read about the Morkey breed, she fits it to a tee.

Story
HAZZY is a very loving & cuddly dog. She loves to be close to her owner & bond. She need to be the "ONLY PET" IN the home. Has jealously issues for attention & does not share food. She also has some separation anxiety behaviors. (Must leave a radio or TV on for noise/company for her). Her 1st owner had a 5yrs old daughter & cat and she has issues because of something that happened there(?) Best with an experienced owner that will cope with her. She is a wonderful dog, but is not getting along with my other pet.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Thank you for stopping by to see me!   Please check below to see what upcoming adoption events I will be attending or apply here for a private meeting.  If you have other questions about me you can email Underdog Rescue at <underdogrescue@petml.com> ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there*** Due to concern around COVID-19, Underdog Rescue is suspending all public adoption events and community events. We are still accepting applications for available dogs but are delaying in-person meet and greets due to the ‘stay at home’ policy. Thank you for your support.  DOB: 06/11/2012 Requires another dog in home: Yes Okay with dogs of all sizes: Yes Okay with cats: Yes Okay with children under 12 years old: Unknown Requires a fenced yard:  Yes Note: dogs must always be leashed whenever outside of a contained area Introverted home body seeking introverted home body. The outside world can be scary. I prefer the comfort of home where I can sit in peace and quiet. I like cuddle sessions on the sofa and enjoy snacking on chicken. A human partner who enjoys couches and chicken is preferred. Dog parks and hikes are too chaotic for me. I like to take things slow. I am a foodie. I like dogs. Cats are okay too. No kids, they stress me out. I like being in my house. Do you have a home? If you do, I would like to be your life partner.     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.  ADOPTION EVENTS:   Adoption events are updated as the foster home RSVP's to attend. Check back for updates on which events they will be attending. 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. You may wish to consider applying and setting 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. Each animal's behavior is evaluated and we have a sense of its temperament and personality. We look for adopters who will give each animal the wonderful life and permanent home that he or she deserves. 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.   YOU CAN HELP: Not able to foster or adopt right now?
