Hello there. I’m Truman. As you can see by my very handsome face, I am a senior Toy Poodle Mix. I’ve been with my foster family for a very short time, but I am learning very quickly.
I really just love to cuddle. I enjoy being with my humans so very much. I will follow you around all the time so that I know where you are. I also like to play with my foster brothers and sisters. One is a small dog and two are cats. They are pretty fun to follow all over too.
I’m not quite potty trained yet, but I know that it’ll get easier. I’m also working on the leash training so having a fenced in yard might be fun, but it is not necessary. Like I said, I’m working on the leash and am doing well on it. I like walkies, but right now I get tired pretty fast.
If you are home most of the time, I’d be okay to be your only furkid. But, if you aren’t home all day, I might need another dog. I tend to bark when I’m alone. I just really like being with others. Attention is so important to me. As you age, you know, you learn about the things that are important and I’ve learned that love is critical for a good life. So I yearn to soak up as much as I possibly can.
Bottom line is that I am an awesome cuddle bug and when I learn to trust you, I will want to be with you all the time. I will be next to you often and I am easy to carry because I’m small.
If you’re learning, like me, that love is great—I might be the man for you. Don’t let my senior age discourage you because I’m a cuddle love bug that has loads and loads to offer! What do you say?
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.

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.
