My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Scout is an adorable 7-week-old puppy who will be ready to join his forever family in just a few weeks! This **hazelnut and caramel-colored cutie is as handsome as they come, with short, squatty little legs and the sweetest face. But what truly makes Scout special is his loving nature—he’s a total cuddle bug who adores snuggling up with his people. His mama is a 20lb cattle dog-dachshund mix, while dad is unknown. Right now, he weighs just 3lbs, and we estimate he’ll grow to 10-15lbs when fully grown.

Scout Needs a Committed Forever Family!

Scout is the ultimate affectionate companion, always ready to curl up in your lap for a nap after a little playtime. While he enjoys romping around with his siblings, he is happiest when he’s close to his humans. He would do best in a home where someone is around often, ideally with another friendly dog to keep him company and show him the ropes. A home with a yard and a family that will shower him with love, structure, and training would be perfect.

Scout had a rough start in life. He was found abandoned in an orchard in Fresno, left for dead. But thanks to a kind rescuer, he made it to the Bay Area, where he is now thriving in a loving foster home with dogs and kids.

What Scout Needs:

A family committed to training, socialization, and exercise. Someone who loves cuddly, affectionate dogs and wants a best friend for life. A safe environment while he finishes his puppy vaccinations (he won’t be ready for public surfaces for another two months).

If you're ready to give Scout the forever home he deserves, he will be the most loyal, loving, and snuggly companion you could ever ask for!

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

We have foster families throughout the Bay Area, spanning from Sacramento to Gilroy. All of our dogs are cared for in foster homes, as we do not yet have a physical facility—but we dream of one day saving animals without boundaries.

To ensure thoughtful and responsible adoptions, we do not host large adoption events. Instead, we prefer to showcase pets in their foster homes, where they feel most comfortable. After you apply, the foster family will reach out to discuss next steps, answer any questions, and arrange a meet-and-greet.

If your application is not chosen for a specific dog, we keep it on file for 90 days. During this time, you can email us to request your application be forwarded to other foster parents for dogs you may be interested in.

More about this rescue

Underdog Animal Rescue, our name pretty much sums us up. We are a registered 501c3 non-profit, volunteer operated nonprofit group dedicated to saving homeless and abandoned dogs from high kill and overcrowded shelters all over the state of California since 2014. We are an all-breed, size and age rescue, meaning we save many of the hardest to place, overbred such as pit bulls and chihuahuas. Our foster-based group lives and operates anywhere from Sacramento to Monterey. We literally give them another chance at life. We have saved over 3000 dogs since starting and we only plan to continue to grow.

When we rescue an animal, we place them in a foster home where they can decompress, learn to be a pet, socialized, spay/neutered, vaccinated, and treated for any medical or behavioral conditions which would otherwise limit their chances of adoption. We then actively network our dogs to find them the perfect forever loving home. Rescue is undoubtedly hard and trying work, but it is entirely worth it to see the life of a dog saved. As a rescue, we believe it is our duty to save the dogs that really need our help; the dogs that need a little TLC, a little medical care, or just someone to believe in them again. Therefore, 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. As much as we love those sweet puppy eyes, we think more of saving their mommy’s and daddy’s that have been shoved to the back of the shelter awaiting their fate.

Thank you for seeing what we do and loving us for it. It’s only because of our outstanding community, foster families, and volunteers that we can continue our efforts, we are 100% donation funded and every penny counts toward a dog in need. Please consider getting involved- foster, adopt, volunteer, share, donate!

As a foster based rescue, Underdog places dogs in temporary foster homes where they can decompress and get the love and affection that they need. Dogs are also vaccinated, spayed/neutered and receive any other medical treatment needed before finding their forever home.
