Agatha

Do you want to meet me? I will be at Hennepin County Government Center, North Plaza. 300 S 6th St, Minneapolis, MN 55487 for an Adoption Event/Summer Session sponsored by the Mpls Downtown Council on Wednesday, June 24th 11:30 AM - 1 PM. Please email inquiries@underdogrescuemn.com for questions regarding the dogs. Sweet Agatha, a 9-year-old English Bulldog with a heart as soft as her squishy face. This sweet, mellow girl is looking for a forever home where she can do what she does best—binge watch TV, nap in the sun, and relax with her favorite people. Agatha is the definition of low-maintenance. While she enjoys a nice, easy walk, she’s just as happy (honestly, happier) spending her day snoozing, cuddling, and soaking up the calm energy of her home. She thrives in a relaxed, slow-paced environment and would be the perfect companion for someone who enjoys quiet days and cozy nights. She is fully potty trained and only goes outside, crate trained, and has wonderful house manners. Agatha is easy to care for—she does great with baths and nail trims, has healthy teeth, and has had no health concerns. She loves her daily routine—especially when it includes a few apple slices and her evening chew. Agatha loves people—both kids and adults—and tends to win over everyone she meets. She does well with other dogs in social settings like walks or the park, but in the home she prefers to be your one and only. She can get a little jealous when it comes to sharing her people, so she’s looking for a home with no other pets. Her favorite things include long naps, sunbathing, chewing on her favorite treats, and snacking on carrots and apples. She also has the cutest little heart-shaped marking in her fur—just one more reason everyone falls in love with her so quickly. Agatha does have a fear of thunderstorms, so she’ll appreciate a home that can offer her comfort during stormy weather. If you’re looking for a calm, loving, and easygoing companion who will happily be your shadow and your snuggle buddy, Agatha is your girl. Just be prepared—once people meet her, they’ll be asking for pictures. A lot of them. To learn more, visit https://underdogrescuemn.com/adoptionprocess/bulldogs/ to fill out the bulldog application. Bulldogs are a member of the Brachycephalic breed and therefore have a host of health issues that may arise. Because these dogs are new into our rescue, health issues in the future may arise that we are not aware of. Some of these issues are allergies, eye issues, yeast infections, interdigital cysts, slipped disks in their back, breathing problems, among a host of others that can occur at any time or when seasons change. While breed experience is not required, we encourage you to thoroughly research the breed and its financial, medical, and environmental needs to be sure the breed is a good fit for you and your family. It is estimated that the average bulldog owner spends $2,000 per year on medical needs. Bulldogs are one of the most expensive dogs to own, maintain, and rescue and our adoption fees reflect such expenses. The application process for bulldogs usually moves quite quickly as they are a popular breed, so we ask that adopters do research and be prepared for adoption at the time you submit your application. They are happy, goofy, playful characters and we are excited you are taking the first steps into rescuing one! This dog requires an application fee. This fee must be paid within 24 hours or your application will be considered void. We will not review or contact applicants that have not completed the payment portion. Bulldog Applications will be responded to within 5 business days, after receipt of the application fee. Please understand that paying the fee does not guarantee you will be approved to adopt the bulldog. Our goal is place bulldogs in homes that are suited for their individual needs. You may be willing and able to provide a great home, but if it doesn’t meet the specific needs of the bulldog, we will not approve your application. ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there***
