Thank you for stopping by to see me! Please fill out an application to set up a private meeting.
Rain is a friendly, sweet-natured girl with a gentle, quiet personality. She has such a lovely disposition and rarely ever barks, making her a wonderful companion for just about any home. Rain loves spending time outdoors and is always happy to enjoy some fresh air and explore her surroundings. She absolutely loves her toys and enjoys playing with them, chasing balls from time to time, and, best of all, going on walks! She does very well on a leash, although she may get a little excited and pull when she spots a squirrel. Rain would be a fantastic companion for someone who enjoys getting outside, taking walks, and including their dog in everyday adventures.
Rain also has a very affectionate side and knows how to settle in for some quality cuddle time. When the fun is over, she loves nothing more than curling up next to her favorite people and relaxing. She is crate trained and does well in her crate, but if given the choice, she would much rather burrow under the covers and snuggle up with her person! She truly enjoys being part of the family and will happily keep you company whether you're heading out for a walk or settling in for a cozy evening at home.
Rain is also flexible when it comes to having other pets. She would do well in a home with another dog to play with or as the only dog, where she can enjoy all the attention herself. She enjoys the occasional romp with the 10-month-old puppy in her foster home. During playtime, she can get a little vocal and may occasionally try to hump the puppy or other dogs, but she is easily redirected.
Rain is fully potty trained and knows basic commands like "sit" and "lie down." She has so many wonderful qualities: she is sweet, gentle, playful, affectionate, enjoys her toys, loves her walks, and is happy to relax and cuddle with her people. Rain is the best of both worlds, an adventure buddy when you're ready to go and a snuggle buddy when it's time to unwind. She is an absolute delight and is ready to find a forever family to love!
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.
