Hiking first aid for your four-legged companion
When my dog Miles sees me emerge from the basement with hiking gear in hand, he follows at my heels. He knows we will be heading to the mountains soon and he is always anxious that I might forget him (even though that has NEVER happened!).

Bruno had emergency surgery Thursday night. 🐾
He severely cut his front paw and had to be rushed to the ER, where he went under anesthesia for surgical repair. He’s home now and expected to fully recover, but the bill came to just over $2,000. 🩺
If you can help us cover this unexpected cost, we’d be so grateful. And if you can’t donate, a share helps more than you know.

Sweet Biscuit is 12 years old and has been with Underhound Railroad since 2021. She continues to surprise us with every birthday she celebrates. Despite her cancer diagnosis, she’s doing well and just keeps trucking along. 🫶
As a furever foster, Biscuit is exactly where she’s meant to be. Her devoted foster mom makes sure she stays comfortable, healthy, and surrounded by love, including this cozy bed generously gifted by Mona Pants, which Biscuit is clearly enjoying. ✨ ... See MoreSee Less

So sweet
Right before the New Year, Pinky was officially adopted by her foster family. This sweet pocket pittie spent time settling in, and it became clear she was exactly where she belonged. We love when a foster home turns into a furever home. 🫶 Here’s to a new year and happy tails Pinky! ❤️🏠 ... See MoreSee Less

Elle is starting the new year cozy, cute, and feeling very loved. 💜
This sweet girl is rocking her rubber ducky pajamas from our BOGO fundraiser with Pittie Clothing Co and showing off her new toy, leash, and collar thanks to Santa Paws. Even though the holidays have passed, the love and spoiling 😉 hasn’t stopped for Elle. Elle is an 8 year old mix breed who has been with our rescue since February 2025 and is still waiting for her furever family. She’s calm, gentle, and full of quiet affection. She enjoys simple things like soft beds, quality time, and being close to her people. 🫶
Elle is currently fostered in North Carolina with transport available to her adoptive home.
If your New Year’s resolution includes opening your heart to a deserving dog, Elle is ready. 💫 ... See MoreSee Less

Elle is the bestest girl filled to the brim with love!
She was such a good girl at our shelter. I loved taking care of her Elle deserves a family of her own❤️🐾
Maverick’s journey started in South Carolina and led him to his furever home in North Carolina! He’s settled in beautifully with a wonderful family who loves including him in all their adventures, including a recent holiday trip to the mountains. ⛰️ He now has two dog brothers, two cat brothers, three human siblings, and even a cousin pup. So there’s never a shortage of playtime or cuddles. 🐾 We’re so happy for Maverick and his big, loving family. Happy tails Maverick! 🏠❤️ ... See MoreSee Less

So happy for Maverick!
2026 is already looking pretty good for Chief. 📆 The rescue calendars are out, and he’s proudly a cover boy. He even gave it a gentle “quality control” nibble. 🤭
New year, big dreams, and one very deserving dog still waiting for his furever home. 💙 Chief is available for adoption and ready to make 2026 his year. ✨ ... See MoreSee Less

As we head into the New Year, we can’t help but reflect on what this year has meant for so many dogs.
In 2025, 38 Underhound dogs found their way from uncertainty to safety, and finally into loving furever homes. These before and after photos tell that story better than words ever could.
Every adoption represents a life changed, a family made whole, and a reminder of why this work matters. None of it would be possible without our fosters, adopters, volunteers, donors, and supporters who show up for these dogs day after day. 🫶
We’re heading into the New Year grateful, hopeful, and ready to keep going for the dogs still waiting. Thank you for being part of their journey.
Happy New Year from all of us at Underhound. 🐾✨

🧚♂️✨ 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. 🫶 ... See MoreSee Less
