Why should you choose to adopt a dog from Underdog ResQ out of the many animal shelters and rescue organizations in the area? First of all, we have great dogs! Second of all, we promise to try our best to make this an enjoyable process. All applications will be responded to promptly, (within 48 hours). Last but not least, adopting a dog that has been in a foster home allows us to tell you more about them. We are able to see how your new dog will adjust to being in a home environment, whether they are truly housebroken, how they respond to commands, where they like to sleep, their eating habits, their favorite toys, whether or not he is good with strangers that come to the home and much more. Below are pictures and profiles of our available dogs for adoption. We will do our best to keep this page updated. The dogs that are adopted will graduate and be moved to the success stories page. Please make sure to read the adoption standards before applying for a dog. Complete that adoption application online or print out the pdf application and mail it.

My name is Isabella and I am a rock star! I’m a pit bull mix, and I am almost four months old. I ended up in a shelter because, well, they basically saved my life along with my 5 siblings. I was part of a cruelty case because we were severely neglected. I am the runt of the litter. Then Underdog ResQ admitted me so that I can have a chance to live in a happy home as I look for a new permanent home. I am so happy in my foster home but I am eager to meet my permanent family. I have a brown grey coat, white paws and webbed feet. My eyes are startling blue-green and everyone I meet tells me what a beautiful girl I am. In response I give a huge puppy smile and wag my whole body. I am a very happy girl! I love being social, taking walks and meeting people. But even more than people I love other fur kids! Currently I am living with two super fun fur kids (but I need a forever home!). The other dogs have been teaching me how to “sit”, “touch” and give TONS of kisses. My foster parents say that I am really smart, and since I am so food motivated really easy to train. I am proud to announce that I am almost house broken! I’m pretty good because I am crate trained, but I’m just a baby and so I still have some accidents. The ideal home for me would be with people that are active, love to cuddle, give belly rubs, and go for long walks! I’d love to have brothers and sisters, human or furry, even a feline friend would be ok with me! If you have a dog it should be a male. Although I wouldn’t mind being an only child and getting all of your attention! I am happy, healthy and enthusiastic about, well….. everything! The only thing I am missing is a forever home! Isabella is being fostered in MA.

She was found as a stray in north shore of Boston and we don't know much about her history. She is very much a homebody and she went from being a very nervous and timid dog to a happy and adorable little girl. She just needs a little time to get to know someone. It took the whole weekend for her to acclimate to her foster home so she will require a very patient family and dog savvy people with experience. She will most likely hide until she gets acclimated to her new home. She even gets scared if someone claps their hands. A quiet household would be best for her so her ideal home will have adults only. She is very affectionate will try to kiss the people she knows every time she gets a chance. She is a total lazy laptop that has obviously been very spoiled by one person but not introduced to the world properly. Chica is always near her foster people but she doesn’t show signs of separation anxiety. She likes to snuggle and follow her people everywhere they go. Chica is sweet little girl!!! Chica doesn’t require long walks. She says “keep it short or maybe hold me – it’s even better”. Chica loves car rides (especially on your lap). Right now she is in a home without other pets but she has met dogs on her short walks and done well. Perhaps another little dog would be a good match for her. One that is not too hyper. We can give it a shot if you have one. Believe it or not, we think she is a bit too nervous to live in a home with cats that may beat her up. Chica is being fostered in MA.

I am a 70 pound male pit bull looking for love. I have been told that I am absolutely adorable, yet stunning. I have a really cute pinkish freckly nose and gorgeous amber colored eyes that match my beautiful coat. I am all smiles and wags at the sight of humans big and small. Everyone who meets me falls madly in love with me and says what a charming boy I am. I am currently living with a pack of 4 dogs. I love my foster siblings bunches and would love a sister to call my own. I enjoy playing fetch, catch, long walks, belly rubs and most of all, cuddling. I even know how to give kisses when you ask for them. I could be described as a fun-loving, happy boy but not in an obnoxious way. I am quite puppyish in my zest for life, but housebroken and trained! It doesn’t get much better than that now does it? I know quite a few commands, such as come, sit, down, roll over, paw, other paw, go to your bed, eat, wait, off, catch, leave it, drop it, and watch me. I even know to “go sit down!” when my foster mom is cooking in the kitchen so that I am not under her feet and don’t get stepped on. See--I follow rules and boundaries very well. I am working on "stay" although I am getting better each day. Although I am large, I walk well on a leash. I have completed one level of obedience training already. My nickname is Bubba but I come when called by just about anything, including “baby girl” since that is what my foster sister is called. I am very silly like that. I figure as long as you are going to love me and possibly scratch my ears, I’ll let you call me anything you want. Did I mention that I am great with other dogs and children? I’d love a home with a female dog and a child friend to play with. I am housebroken and trustworthy when alone in the house. I can’t go to a home with cats though- I would drive them crazy! If you are interested in meeting me and experiencing a lifetime of love and unwavering devotion, please fill out an application! You can also do some research on my breed too! Helpful websites include www.pbrc.net and www.badrap.org. I look forward to meeting my forever home soon. Petey is being fostered in MA.

Cassie needed a little TLC and has since gained some weight and now romps around like any healthy puppy would! Cassie is very smart and very eager to learn. In the two weeks that she’s been in her foster home she has learned, and does very well with Sit, Down, Stay, Leave it, Drop it, Come, and even Go Potty. She loves to play fetch and seems to have no desire to chew on anything other than her toys. Cassie is crate trained and does extremely well. She sleeps through the night without issue. She is doing well with potty training but has had a few accidents. She hasn’t shown any signs of letting her foster mom know when she needs to go out, so it’ll be up to her owner to know when to take her. She is a puppy, and during her waking hours needs to go out very often. Cassie lives in a house with two small dogs (under 10 pound) and a cat and does great with them. Her permanent home may have a male dog, if any. Cassie loves to go to the park and does very well with other dogs and people. Cassie needs work on walking as biting the leash seems to be more important to her than anything else. She would for sure benefit from a basic obedience class and in fact would probably love it! Overall Cassie is a big, quiet, love bug that would sit on your lap in a second, roll over to have her belly rubbed and just be a great companion for anyone. Two things that her foster mom loves about this little girl is that she does not give kisses and she very rarely barks!!! Cassie is located in NH.

Jaden was found as a stray dog in NYC and is being fostered in NH. He weighs 57 pounds. He is totally house trained and from day one in his foster home has been a well-mannered boy. He is very well behaved and does not get into things he should not get into. He eats well and does not have a problem with putting your hand into the bowl. He gets along well with other dogs and he doesn’t cause any drama with any that he’s met. He is currently in a foster home with a female husky mix and a few cats. He sometimes chases the cats and other times runs away from them, this is all in play. So, a home with a dog-friendly cat would be a great match for him. He makes a good watch dog but don’t count on him being a guard dog. He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body. Overall he would make a wonderful companion and a low maintenance pet especially if you love kisses! His ideal home may have kids over the age of 10 years (he does sometimes jump when he meets new people or gets excited), cats and a female dog. Jaden is being fostered in NH.

We’re getting Rex for the kids - they will do all the work. Maybe for the first week or so, but most kids will slack off soon enough and the responsibility will fall on your laps. You are considered to be the owner because you are over the age of 21. If your kids do not walk Rex, then it is up to you that it gets done. As much as we talk to our kids about responsibility and as much as they agree to care for your new dog, we all know that sooner or later most kids will lose interest or get tired. If you can positively answer these questions and concerns, then you may be ready to adopt Rex. View Next >
