FOSTER NEEDED
 







DOB:  05/08/2017

Requires another dog in home: No if around a lot


Okay with dogs of all sizes: Yes, likes very playful friends


Okay with cats: No




Okay with children under 12 years old: Playful so best with older kids




Requires a fenced yard:  
Yes, not leash trained



Note: dogs must always be leashed whenever outside of a contained area. Invisible/ underground fencing is not recommended for most rescue dogs.







FOSTER NEEDED: 





Looking for a new best friend - well Miss Jelly(Gelato) is your girl! She is the prettiest, friendliest, loving and most playful girl. While Jelly is about 4 years old, she acts like a 40 pound puppy and just loves life! She is working on potty training and doing great on a routine. 





Jelly definitely has puppy energy and would do great with another medium or large dog to teach her basic puppy manners - a confident and social dog would be her bestie! Because her energy level, Jelly would do best in a home without small dogs or cats. Dog savvy kids would work if they are aware of her energy level. Jelly would thrive in an active home! She is eager to learn how to walk on a leash and is so smart that she is already learning how to play fetch. A backyard is required so she can do some zoomies and play. If not playing, Ms Jelly loves to snuggle and will be your buddy while you watch a movie. Her current foster family says she loves toys - and loves shoes, remotes and pillows - so keep on eye on this sneaky girl when she isn't in her kennel. She is easily distracted by antlers and a Kong full of peanut butter. 





Who is ready for this playful girl? 



Some of our dogs are obtained from commercial breeders where they spent their lives getting comfort from their canine friends. Others have come from various situations where they are lacking confidence in humans. 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.

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.
