Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.  Crash's journey has been one of unimaginable pain and remarkable resilience. This brave pitbull mix has endured severe abuse and was even set on fire, leaving scars that tell a story of suffering and survival. Yet, despite his tragic past, Crash's spirit remains unbroken. Thanks to the love and care he's received, Crash's external wounds are healing beautifully, and his heart has only grown bigger and stronger. His hair is growing back, but his tongue remains a part of his expression and usually out the side of his mouth. This guy is full of personality! Loud, sudden noises still startle him, but his courage shines through as he no longer runs for cover. Instead, he stands his ground, a testament to his incredible bravery. Socialization was not a part of Crash's early life, making him a bit overwhelming for some dogs at first. But once you get to know him, you'll see that Crash is a true lover. His playmates range from tiny chihuahuas to towering Great Danes, and he shows affection to dogs of all sizes. Crash has a special place in his heart for children. His gentle nature and protective instincts make him the perfect babysitter dog, living up to his name in every way. Whether playing in the yard or cuddling on the couch, Crash adores kids and is happiest when surrounded by his human family. Crash is ready for a forever home where he can feel safe and loved. He'll thrive with or without other dogs, as long as he has a soft place to snuggle and a family to call his own. If you're looking for a loyal companion with an unbreakable spirit, Crash is waiting to meet you. 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.
