Magoo - Mutt Male Dog For Adoption in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, USA

Dog Breed: Shar Pei (short coat).

Thank you for stopping by to see me! Please fill out an application to set up a private meeting. Meet Magoo! Magoo is a ray of sunshine wrapped in a squishy Shar-Pei face! This affectionate boy is absolutely obsessed with love and has plenty of it to give. He loves to cuddle, give kisses, and be as close to his people as possible. If you're looking for a dog who will happily make you feel like the most loved person in the world, Magoo may be your guy! Magoo is a playful, silly, loving boy who enjoys both people and other dogs. He especially loves playing with his canine friends and would be happiest in a home with another playful dog to keep him company. His foster thinks he may get lonely without another dog unless his people are home frequently and able to give him lots of interaction and attention. When Magoo gets excited, he has an adorable little quirk called "corn cobbing," where he gives his person tiny, gentle nibbles. He would love a family with kids who understand this silly habit and are comfortable with it. He's also a pretty great housemate! Magoo is potty trained, walks well on a leash with only a little excited pulling, and does great in a plastic kennel. He's figured out how to escape a wire kennel, though, because apparently he's a little too clever for those! He may cry for a little while when you leave him in his kennel, but he does settle down. Magoo loves all toys and chewies, but his absolute favorite pastime may be chasing his bouncy Kong. He's also a smart boy who knows the command "Night night" when it's time to go to bed. He's loving, affectionate, playful, silly, and listens well most of the time. Magoo isn't just looking for a home—he's looking for his people. He wants a family who will appreciate his goofy little nibbles, give him plenty of love and attention, and let him be the affectionate, playful boy that he is. This sweet boy is truly a ray of sunshine through and through, and he is ready to make his forever family very, very happy. 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. ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there*** If you have other questions about me you can email Underdog Rescue at <inquiriesunderdogrescuemn> 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. YOU CAN HELP: Not able to foster or adopt right now? Please consider sponsoring an Underdog.
