Underdog Animal Rescue
https://www.underdogca.com/
Our mission is to eliminate the euthanasia of adoptable animals by providing for the rescue, spay/neuter, foster care, and adoption of homeless pets. Underdog Animal Rescue opened its doors to dogs in need mid 2014. Since then, we have grown into a strong network of people dedicated to saving the Underdogs. We have dedicated our efforts to giving a chance to the dogs that are most in need (medically or behaviorally) and the dogs that have been overlooked for too long. We rescue all breeds, ages and sizes both from the public and shelters all over the state. In our 8 years we have rescued and adopted out over 2500 dogs and helped thousands of dogs of the public safely find new homes, get medical attention and supplies. We are fully volunteer based and foster fueled, we do not have our own facility, but have big dreams to expand into a facility to make an even bigger impact. Our bigger focus will be on education through rescue with elementary age children because that is the only way to change the future.
It's been hard work but work that needs to be done. As a rescue, we believe it is our duty to save the dogs that really need our help. Rescues should be helping the dogs that need a little TLC, a little medical care, and just someone to believe in them again. This is why we save the dogs that are on their last days at the shelter or haven't even been given a chance to be adopted by the public. We hope we never lose sight of what we are trying to do, and never stop helping the dogs that really need our help. As much as we love those sweet puppy eyes, we think more of saving their mommies and daddies that have been shoved to the back of the shelter awaiting their fate. We are always in need of fosters, volunteers and supplies. Thank you for seeing what we do and loving us for it. Underdog animal rescue is a fully insured non profit organization
