About this Dog
Keep checking back for upcoming events I will be attending! Looking to add a little firecracker to your life? Meet Lefty – a 6-pound powerhouse of confidence, charm, and squishy-toy obsession. He’s basically a Chihuahua-sized bodyguard with a bark that says “I’m here to protect you from that suspicious mailbox across the street.” Lefty is a certified champion leash walker who’s always up for exploring new trails, sniffing the latest scents, and flexing his tiny muscles for anyone who dares to glance his way. He may be small, but he’s got a whole lotta “main character energy.” At home, he’s a snuggle bug who loves curling up with his humans or romping around with his doggy foster siblings (big and small). He will bark at older cats, but recently met some kittens and absolutely loved them, romping and playing. If a doorbell rings or a dog sneezes too loud? Expect a few dramatic barks – he’s just narrating the situation, obviously. Toddlers aren't his thing. When he sees them he will growl and bark as if to say "who is this short person and what are they doing in my space?" He is great with older kids (e.g. 9+ years) though. He also tends to flex his protective voice when he sees other dogs on walkies. He may be small but when he sees those other doggos, he instinctively speaks to make sure they know he will protect his human at all costs to anyone who dare invades his space! At home he is good with other dogs so long as they know that he gets mom's lap when it is couch/cuddle time. Once you pick him up, he is a total cuddle muffin. He was absolutely born to be a purse/bag dog who will go with you everywhere and anywhere. Lefty is potty-trained for #2 and working on full coverage with help from a stylish belly band (very 2025 fashion-forward). Crate trained? Yup. Obedient? He comes when called and will come even faster if you have snacks. Lefty would thrive in a home where the humans are around a lot – whether there’s another dog or not. He's got all the spark, sass, and sweet snuggles you’d ever need in one fun-sized package. Ready for a little dog with a big heart and even bigger personality? Lefty’s got your six. Literally. He’s probably following you around the house right now 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***
Contribute to Lefty's Stash!
100% of Lefty's balance will be sent to whoever adopts Lefty.
Adopt Lefty and Receive Lefty's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Lefty's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Lefty's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Lefty, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Lefty's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Lefty was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Lefty’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Lefty’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Lefty’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
