Reviews

“Underhound Railroad was exceptional during our entire rescue adoption process. The foster home was wonderful and we were able to get all our questions answered. They went above and beyond to help is find the right rescue to add to our existing family and our current rescue dog. They made sure our home was safe and secure so that when we decided, we were all sure it was the right choice for us. We rescued our girl in December and couldn’t be happier! Thank you for your help adding an amazing new member to our home!”

“Penny (now our “little one”, Piccola) came to us after two weeks with her wonderful foster parents. It was a whirlwind romance–we fell for that adorable little pit face the moment we saw her. We don’t want to think too much about what Piccola went through before Underhound Railroad rescued her, took care of her, and brought her our way, but we plan to do everything to make the rest of her life as wonderful as possible. Thank you for stepping in when Piccola needed it! You’re organization is outstanding to work with and doing something exceptional.”

“We adopted our dog four years ago through Underhound Railroad. I was able to learn a lot about her from her foster and we were able to see that this dog would be a good match for us. Underhound volunteers take wonderful care of the dogs and pups they bring up from the south to save them from euthanasia. And that includes providing lots of love and patience as well as physical care. I wouldn’t hesitate to adopt another dog from Underhound Railroad.”

– Maryann

“I’ve adopted two wonderful dogs through this agency. They’ve been two of the best companions that I could ever ask for. The volunteers were always a delight to speak with and always putting the best interest of the dog before anything else.”

– Ryan

“Excellent, caring, ethical and well directed rescue. I have fostered dogs for them, evaluated dogs on their behalf in shelters and assisted with pulling those dogs for the rescue, and even adopted one of the dogs I fostered. Highly recommend.”

– Samantha

“Underhound Railroad helped to bring us a wonderful little pup after my husband and I suddenly and unexpectedly lost one of our precious fur babies. Everyone involved worked to hard and quickly to make sure all of the potential adopters and fosters were matched with the perfect Underhound. Our dog has been such a joy for us and if ever we find ourselves looking for another furbaby… Underhound Railroad is going to be the first place we look!”

– Courtney

Elle is an 8 year old Lab mix with a heart as big as her gentle soul. 💞 She is all about the simple joys — strolling around the block, soaking up the sun, and being close to her people. Whether she is getting belly rubs or giving sweet kisses, Elle is happiest when she is sharing love. 🫶 She is great with other dogs but would be just as content being your one and only. Elle is currently undergoing heartworm treatment and she is well on her way to a full recovery. It is a manageable condition, and she doesn’t let it slow her down!

📍 Elle is being fostered in North Carolina but transportable to her perfect home, Elle is ready to find her furever family. Could it be you? 🏡💛

What a cutie! I hope Picasso finds his fur-ever home quickly!

Meet Pinky, your future best friend! ⭐ This 3 year old, 45lb pocket pittie is full of love, energy and fun! She is crate & potty trained plus knows all her commands. As a graduate of Proactive Dog Training’s Ultimate Dog Package, she has mastered sit, stay, down and more. Pinky is a fetch fanatic, loves her bones and enjoys playtime. She is also a pro at lounging! Whether it is soaking up the sun in a cozy chair or curling up for a nap, she knows how to relax. 😌 While Pinky grew up with a dog and cat, she was not well socialized with new dogs, so she is still a work in progress when meeting them. She does well on walks but is not ready for dog parks or doggie daycare. Pinky would thrive as the only dog in the home and would love an active family for fetch, jogs, and cuddles! 💛

📍 Pinky is being fostered in North Carolina and she can transported to her adoptive home.

💙 Boomer’s Update 💙

Because of your generosity, we were able to move forward with Boomer’s chest X-rays and bone biopsy. The best news so far is that there are no signs of metastasis on his X-rays! He also did great for his procedure and is rocking a little bald spot on his head where they took the biopsy. We are hopeful to have results this week or next. 🩺

As we wait for answers, we are starting the search for a very special foster or adopter for Boomer. He needs a loving home as a furever foster, where Underhound Railroad will cover his medical care, or a compassionate adopter willing to give him a furever home, knowing his time may be short.

We will share updates as we get them, but for now, we just want to say thank you for being part of Boomer’s journey. Your support means the world to him! 🐾💛

📩 If you are interested in fostering or adopting, please reach out!

A Masterpiece puppy has found their furever home. Monet is the first of her siblings to be adopted and is settling in beautifully with her new family. Monet is already a true city girl, loving her walks and soaking up all the love at home. Her favorite activity? Cuddling on the couch, of course! Her family is absolutely smitten and have picked out a new name. Monet now goes by Mia! Happy tails! 🏠❤️ ... See MoreSee Less
