Roxanne (Roxie for short) was picked up as a stray in December 2022, and since coming to the shelter, had lost a lot of weight and was not doing well. She was rescued and is now in a foster home, where she is putting on weight, learning the do’s and don’ts from her older foster sister, and blooming into the young, curious, and spunky girl we knew she could be. Plus, her ears are truly an eighth wonder of the world! Roxie is about three years old, and thrives on affection. She is very food driven, and knows some basic commands, including sit. She is very smart and would do well with some training. She is currently working on her leash skills and showing off to her foster mom what a smart and eager student she is. She took to her crate quickly and is currently fed and sleeping in her crate overnight. She is a very petite, dainty girl who wants nothing more than to be touching you at all times. A complete Velcro dog! She also has an epic gremlin-like howl that she uses to communicate when she wants something (it’s hard to not laugh when you hear it). After all of her time on the street, it seems as if she is learning how to be a dog for the first time, including toys, lick mats, and treats! She is curious about her older foster sister, and has met several neighborhood dogs who she now considers friendly. She can be timid and intimidated at first when meeting other dogs, and doesn’t like being barked at (who does?), so would do well in a home with a chill dog(s). She does tend to bark first and ask questions later, which her foster mom is working on. Because she loves her food, and can’t quite distinguish yet between treats and fingers, a home with older children would be recommended. She also looks at cats like she looks at squirrels, i.e. she would do well in a home without cats (for the cat’s sake). For being a tiny as she is, she has a big, quirky pittie personality that is coming out more and more as she relaxes after her time in the shelter. She would make a perfect addition to the right home!

Meet Lila! This sweet little ball of energy is a 12-week-old Pit Mix who's ready to take on the world. Lila is the perfect combination of playful and affectionate, and she loves everyone she meets, whether they're dogs or humans. As a young pup, Lila has plenty of room to grow and she's expected to be a medium-sized dog when she's fully grown. But no matter how big she gets, she's sure to always be a bundle of joy. Her boundless energy and zest for life will keep you on your toes and bring a smile to your face. Lila's love for other dogs is contagious, and she's sure to become fast friends with any furry playmates she meets. She's also always eager for some human attention, and she'll love snuggling up with you for some well-deserved belly rubs. If you're looking for a fun-loving and affectionate companion to add to your family, look no further than Lila. This little lady is sure to steal your heart and make every day a little brighter. So why wait? Adopt Lila today and start making memories!

Hero was formerly known as Ken. He was hurled over a barbed wire fence by his former owner who has since been arrested for willful abandonment. After being starved, neglected, and abandoned in the most brutal way possible, he is still incredibly sweet and trusting with all humans and great with dogs too. He is good with small dogs, walks well on a leash, and is very affectionate and playful. He is estimated to be 8 years old but acts significantly younger so we aren't sure of his exact age, but he is ready for his forever home and deserves the best possible life!

Bernard is the sweetest senior teddy bear. He was found emaciated, butchered, and beaten with scars all over his body from what looked like dog attacks. He is so good with all humans, old, small, male, and female. He is now healthier and stronger and ready for a home. This sweet boy failed as it pertains to socializing with other dogs so it's best if he is the only dog in the home. He would be great in a home with the grandparents. He would be wonderful with all children and grandchildren and does not require being walked. Having a backyard to go outside and play and a human to hang out with is more than enough to make him the happiest boy in the world. He is also great at being home alone and will sleep until his humans are back. After everything he has been through, Bernard just wants peace and love. Nothing more.

Meet Stewie, a sweet, affectionate dog who loves to play and snuggle. He's great with all dogs, but he'll need some time to warm up to new people—but once he does, it's smooth sailing. He has mostly been potty trained but still needs a little work with that. Stewie was locked in a tiny crate for most of his life, so his paw pads bleed when he's used to running around outside. It'll just take some time for them to build up calluses. He's also under a year old, so he has no idea what life is like outside of the tiny cage he was kept in before we found him! He loves affection and will give you tons of love if you give him some!

Meet Valentina, a 3-year-old Dogo Argentino who is good with other dogs but can be protective of her food. With this in mind, always feed her separately from other dogs, kids and animals.

Hi, nice to meet you - I am Lola! I am about 5 years old and was dumped at a high kill shelter on Christmas. It was a pretty scary place and I waited for a couple months until someone would notice me.. Thankfully Underdogs saw me and saved me just in time! I am a proper lady and walk well on leash. I am crate trained, potty trained and have medium energy. I love a hike every once in a while but also love to lounge and sunbathe. When I was at the scary shelter, I got attacked by a group of dogs so I can be a little nervous around dogs now, hence I do prefer to be the only queen of the castle. I am very affectionate and would like nothing more than a family who is willing to adopt me and love me - I promise to love you back and be a very good girl!!!! If interested in meeting me, please email: info@underdogheroes.com or fill out our adoption application.
