About

Thank you for stopping by to see me! Please fill out an application to set up a private meeting. Want to meet me? Come to Nautical Bowls - Edina (5013 Ewing Ave S, Minneapolis MN 55410) on Saturday, June 13th 12:00-2:00 pm. Please email inquiries@underdogrescuemn.com for questions regarding the dogs. Reginald is an adorable Shih Tzu with a joyful spirit and a personality that makes everyone fall in love with him. He is one of those dogs who seems genuinely happy wherever life takes him—whether that’s a walk around the neighborhood, a car ride, a visit to the vet, or simply meeting new friends. Reginald loves people and greets visitors with enthusiasm, always ready to make a new friend. This sweet boy is playful, easy-going, and full of charm. He loves carrying toys around the house, enjoys going for walks, and is great with other dog-friendly dogs. He remains active, playful, and eager to join in on whatever adventure the day may bring. One of Reginald’s favorite things in the world is snuggling. He loves pressing his whole body against his person, tucking his head under your chin, and soaking up all the affection he can get. He’s the perfect combination of playful companion and cuddle buddy. Reginald does have a cataract in one eye, and another is beginning to form in the other. While we’re not entirely sure how much vision he has in his right eye, it certainly hasn’t slowed him down. His veterinarian believes he can still see light and some shapes, and he navigates his world with confidence and enthusiasm. Potential adopters should be aware that his vision may continue to change over time and may wish to discuss future treatment options with their veterinarian. Friendly, affectionate, and endlessly lovable, Reginald has been one of our easiest and favorite fosters. If you’re looking for a cheerful companion who loves adventures, toys, other dogs, and snuggling close at the end of the day, Reginald may be the perfect addition to your family. 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 <inquiries@underdogrescuemn.com> 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: 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, 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 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. YOU CAN HELP: Not able to foster or adopt right now? Please consider sponsoring an Underdog.
