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

Underhound Railroad

It's the perfect day for you to meet Wednesday! Unexpectedly joining Underhound Railroad at just 5 weeks old, Wednesday is a precious pup with black fur and white tipped marking on her back paws. She's currently learning the house rules, like pottying outside and slowly being introduced to a crate. When home alone Wednesday has a puppy pen that she is placed in while she is eagerly eating meals in her crate. Wednesday is a playful pup who wants to be on the go and not much stops her! She learned to go up and down the stairs on the second day in her foster home. She is confident playing with other dogs and would enjoy having another fur sibling in the home. Wednesday needs lots of potty break throughout the day, which she quickly does her business outside then is ready to play. Thankfully she's only required one midnight potty break so far otherwise is sleeping through the night. Wednesday has gone on a few leashed walks in the neighborhood and got the hang of the harness and leash on day one! Wednesday is a spirited puppy that is all silliness and antics until she crashes! She does love to cuddle close and nuzzling into a neck is her favorite place to make herself comfy. Wednesday is seeking a family ready to help her grow into the best furever family member. She is accepting adoption applications now at www.underhoundrailroad.org and will be ready to go to her forever home at 8 weeks old.

Wednesday is currently being fostered in North Carolina and may be transported along the East Coast as far North as Maine to her furever family. Though we are unsure of Wednesday's exact breed it was relayed that her mother is a Lab Ridgeback mix and her father is a pittie. If you adopt Wednesday we would love to see what a DNA test might come back as!

Where is this happening?

The one of a kind duo, Peppa Pig and Piglet, have been adopted! These sweet sisters were rescued from a hoarding situation in early 2021 and has taken them awhile to find the perfect family. Though it may have taken much longer than expected their foster mom kept pushing to ensure the best match so Peppa Pig and Piglet could continue to flourish. The piggies have settled into their new home and are adjusting even faster than expected. Piglet is already asking for cuddles, while Peppa eagerly explores on walks. The piggies even claimed their spot in the bed! Just checkout these photos that capture how seamlessly the piggies transitioned into their forever home. Happy tails Peppa Pig and Piglet! ❤️🏠 ...

Oh, I am so happy I remember when I had them for an overnight or two in their transition and I think I had Dollie their other sister until she was adopted just sweetheart. I am so happy and look at those beautiful, matching sweaters. Amy Watkins Littlefield These babies are seniors also !

I'm so happy they found their permanent people! I have thought about them for a long time. (I thought they'd already been adopted. I wish I could have taken them, it is just too busy here)

This makes me so happy! The chihuahuas that came from that situation are truly unique. I had the honor of fostering 3 other sisters and just love them all. ❤️❤️❤️ Happy tails Peppa Pig and Piglet!

They look so happy and peaceful ❤️❤️

This makes me so happy!!!

This is amazing!!! 💕💕💕

Underhound doesn't give up. Great job!

Not sure if male or female .. but Foxie is an option .. as pooch resembles a fox 🦊

I see a, Queenie , because she looks like a queen with her head held high and her front legs crossed. Shows royalty. She's beautiful 🥰

I have filled out adoption application online, my wife and I would love to have this beautiful pup in our home.

Your almost there, Poochie is a perfect name for this sweetie pie.

It's a girl, I was thinking "Shelly".
