My story

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

Felix is the sweetest and most handsome four year old pittie mix.  He was found on the streets in Texas and jumped at his opportunity to become a Colorado Underdog!  He was skinny, scared and heartworm positive, but he is working to change all that!  He is such a good boy!  And quiet too!  He’s definitely not a barker.  He does great on a leash and is never reactive to other dogs.  He only wants to say hello.  His dog park visits have been successful–he likes to introduce himself and then usually wanders off to do his own thing.



He is equal parts adventure buddy and couch potato.  He would definitely benefit from regular activity and adventures. He even does great in the car! And when it's time to relax, he would be happy to snuggle on the couch with you. Because he’s never had a family of his own, he likes to keep his people close.  He will follow you anywhere and everywhere!  He loves all toys, but his favorite thing is a tennis ball.  He loves chasing it and chewing it–bonus points if it squeaks!  He also loves puzzles, games and kongs, but if they’re too difficult, he will give up and go find something else to do.



Felix can be a little unsure of himself and his surroundings at times, but he has gained confidence very quickly in his foster home.  Loud noises and sudden moves can still startle him though, so it would be best to take things slow, and walk him in a harness.  He is smart but has never had much training.  He knows “sit” and is eager to learn more.  He is also in the process of crate training.  



Are you looking for a cuddly and quiet companion? Do you like outdoor adventures and Netfix binge sessions? Felix is your guy!



If you're interested in adopting Felix, please fill out an adoption application here: https://underdogsrescue.org/adopt-form/



Underdogs is a small volunteer-based animal rescue and we unfortunately do not have the resources to respond to phone and email inquires about our adoptable animals at this time. If you're interested in learning more or setting up a meeting with one of our animals, please complete an adoption application first. It may take up to two weeks for application review and one of our coordinators will reach out to you as soon as we are through the intitial review process. We appreciate your patience and understanding! Thank you!

More about this rescue

Underdogs is an all-breed dog (and a few cats) foster-based rescue. We assist high-kill shelters and abandoned animals through cooperative rescue efforts in Colorado, across the country and abroad.

Our dogs are adopted out fully vaccinated and spayed/neutered as age allows. If our puppies are too young to be spayed and neutered, we take a spay/neuter deposit at time of adoption.
