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.

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 adoptors 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!

Meet Baby Bell! This sweet girl was found as a stray in North Carolina and brought to the local animal shelter. Her "before" picture breaks our hearts with her being so uncertain. But just look at her now! That HUGE smile says it all. 😁
Baby Bell’s transformation is a reminder of the difference we can make. As we welcome 2025, we’re setting our sights on creating even more smiles like hers. Every life we save starts with YOU—our amazing supporters, fosters, and adopters. ✨
Let’s make 2025 filled with hope, happiness, and second chances. Together, we can give more pups like Baby Bell the fresh start they deserve. ❤️

💔 Foster Needed for Nellie and Her Puppies! 💕
Nellie has been stuck at a rural shelter in NC since early October. She came in pregnant and gave birth to 5 sweet puppies, who are now growing up in the shelter. This little family deserves so much more than that!
We’re looking for a foster in or near the Triangle area of North Carolina who can welcome Nellie and her babies into their home. 🏡 All supplies will be provided, you just provide the love and a safe space for them to thrive.

Dove’s journey started under a shed, where she was found as a stray caring for her five tiny puppies. Despite the odds, Dove poured all her love into her little ones to keep them safe and healthy. Her pups found loving homes one by one. And now, it’s Dove’s turn to shine! She’s officially been adopted and has found her furever family. Dove now has a cozy place to call home and also found a human who shares her love for the great outdoors! Happy tails Dove! ♥️🏠 ... See MoreSee Less

Ronnie is a snuggly lapdog with a huge smile. He is ready to fill your life with love, joy, and cuddles. Could you give him the best gift of all—a furever home? 🏠❤️
