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!”

🧚‍♂️✨ Tinkerbell had her stocking stuffed by Santa Paws and was very appreciative… at least until the toys met their inevitable fate. 😅 The photos show her enjoying her new gifts, but let’s just say the squeakers didn’t last long.

This long timer is still wishing for what matters most... a furever home of her own. 💞 Loyal, loving, and full of personality, Tinkerbell is ready to trade foster life for a lifelong love. 🫶

Looks just like my Roxy

Such a doll!

Waking up to Chief on Christmas morning would be the ultimate gift. 🎁🐾

This charming 5 year old bully boy is sweet, loyal, and happiest right by his people’s side. Chief loves his daily walks, car rides, puppuccino runs, and being included in everyday life. He’s affectionate, crate & potty trained, and has the best goofy charm. The kind that makes everyone fall in love (especially the ladies 😉).

📍 Fostered in North Carolina with transport available to his adoptive his furever home! 🏠

Love this handsome boi!!!!!

Spending Christmas Eve with Bruno would be pretty perfect. 🎅🐾

This lovable, playful guy has an infectious smile, a heart full of joy, and that adorable one ear up, one ear flop look we can’t get enough of.

Bruno is house & crate trained, and absolutely loves toys, treats, and sprawling out on the couch with his people. He adores attention and would thrive as the star of the show in his furever home 🎄

Birdie has found her furever home and now goes by Zoey. 💕 She’s already answering to her adoptive name (and to Zo Zo and “pretty girl,” too). Her adopter shared that Zoey is doing amazing and has quickly become a favorite morning coffee companion and couch cuddle buddy. She’s settling in beautifully and is, in their words, one of the sweetest dogs they’ve ever had. Happy tails! ❤️🏠 ... See MoreSee Less

Chief has discovered a new love! Watching him herd, run, and pounce on this jolly ball is so entertaining. This boy is full of personality!

He’s an active, fun loving pup who would thrive with a family ready to keep him mentally and physically engaged. Chief is available for adoption now and would love a home of his own to share moments like this with. 💙

Surprising what fun one little ball can bring! Go, Chief!

We are so excited to share happy news about Faline! This sweet girl has been with us since the summer, and after carefully reviewing many applications, we found a wonderful match for her.

Faline is getting ready to leave North Carolina and make her journey north, and we couldn’t be happier for what’s ahead. Please keep her in your thoughts and wish her safe travels as she heads off on her next adventure just in time for Christmas. ❤️🐾

Happy tails update to come once she’s settled! ✨
