About this Dog
Reporting for duty as your future best friend, shadow, emotional support blanket, and snack consultant. This guy may be short a leg, but he’s not short on personality, spunk, or affection. Lieutenant is a tripod terrier mix with one mission: to be your best friend, workout buddy, snuggle consultant, and treat disposal unit. Don’t let the three legs fool you – this pup is ready to romp, zoom, and wrestle like a pro. He’s full of classic puppy energy, and while he’s doing great on a leash, he definitely wouldn’t say no to a fenced yard to show off his turbo-hopping skills. Lieutenant needs a doggy playmate in his forever home – one who’s down for a game of bitey-face, zoomies, and post-play snuggles. He’s working on potty training and doing well with a regular schedule (with a belly band just in case). Crate time is not his favorite thing (he’ll serenade you with a dramatic aria for 15–20 minutes), but he’ll settle down and rest like a good boy. He sleeps well in his kennel at night as long as he knows you’re nearby – or better yet, he’d love to curl up right next to you. Lieutenant is incredibly sweet, endlessly cuddly, and wants nothing more than to love and be loved. Whether he’s hopping around like the happiest pogo stick you’ve ever seen or melting into your lap like a puddle of pure joy, this boy is impossible not to adore. If you’re looking for a perfectly imperfect pup with a heart as big as his ears, Lieutenant is ready to report for snuggle duty! **Obedience classes are required when adopting this puppy from Underdog Rescue. Many of our puppies have a mama who was not properly socialized before coming to Underdog Rescue. Since coming to Underdog, this puppy has been in a socialized and loving home, but that needs to be continued with its Adopters. Training classes teach puppies the ins and outs of being a pet while creating a bond with their new Adopter. Obedience classes are key to creating a relationship with your puppy while having it be a happy and successful member of society. Proof of Obedience Class registration is required for this puppy before adoptions can be finalized. If you would like some suggestions, we would be happy to send some trainers who have experience with Underdog Rescue, but a Basic Obedience class in your area should work! 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. This puppy 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. Puppy 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 puppy. Our goal is to place puppies 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 puppy, we will not approve your application. We accept applications for puppies until we have a candidate that meets all of the requirements needed for the specific puppy and they have been contacted to review the adoption process as well as agree to all of the terms to move forward. ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there***

100% of Lieutenant's balance will be sent to whoever adopts Lieutenant.
Adopt Lieutenant and Receive Lieutenant'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, Lieutenant's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Lieutenant's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Lieutenant, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Lieutenant'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 Lieutenant was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Lieutenant’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Lieutenant’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, Lieutenant’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!
