mp;rsquo;t be more fitting—this sweet poodle mix is full of love and is happiest when she’s close to her people. She forms strong bonds with her humans and will happily follow you from room to room just to keep you company. Whether she’s curled up in your lap, snuggled beside you on the couch, or simply keeping an eye on where you are, Lovey loves being part of the action.
While she can be a little timid when meeting new people, it doesn’t take long for her gentle and affectionate personality to shine through. Once she knows you, she loves with her whole heart and becomes a devoted companion.
Lovey is playful, goofy, and eager to please. She enjoys toys, although she isn’t obsessed with them, and she especially loves spending time playing with other dogs. She gets along wonderfully with dog-friendly dogs of all sizes and is friendly with people and animals alike. One of her favorite pastimes is chewing on a good bone, which keeps her happily entertained.
Lovey is crate trained, although she may need a few minutes to settle down before relaxing. She is still learning leash skills and will benefit from continued training, but she is perfectly capable of getting her exercise and potty breaks on leash and does not require a fenced yard.
With her sweet nature, loving heart, and easygoing personality, Lovey is the kind of dog who quickly becomes part of the family. She is affectionate, gentle, and always ready for a cuddle, making her an ideal companion for someone looking for a loyal best friend.
If you’re searching for a devoted little shadow who will love you endlessly and happily share both adventures and quiet moments, Lovey may be the perfect fit for your home.
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. 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.

ADOPTION EVENTS:
Adoption events are updated at the top of each dogs animals' as their foster home signs up. Check back for updates on which events they will be attending. If an event is not listed within their bio above, the animal is not planning to attend. 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. We recommend filling out an application and we will set 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:
.underdogrescuemn/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 .underdogrescuemn/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, but each bio is written by the foster as they see them, in their home. Each animal's behavior is evaluated and we have a sense of its temperament and personality, but it cannot be guaranteed. We look for adopters who will give each animal the wonderful life and permanent home that he or she deserves in time and with patience. If you have an interest and ability to be a foster home, please visit our website .underdogrescuemn/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.
