My story

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

When it comes to changing a life, it takes a village. Partnering with a local animal shelter and All Breed Rescue & Training, if we are able to find a foster for a girl named Sunshine, she comes with a village built-in! And you know if she has this many people who believe in her and the life she could have, she's something very special. 



Found abandoned and terrified in the Denver area, “Sunny” is a beautiful 4yr old American Staff/Corso mix. Sunny was clearly abused and overbred, so, understandably, she is slow to warm up to new people, is still pretty afraid of most of the world and doesn’t trust other animals. However, once you win her over (which isn’t to hard to do with a few good treats), she will become your most loyal companion and will show you nothing but love, playfulness and an unbreakable bond. 



The amazing All Breed Rescue & Training has offered to bring her into their program & care at their Colorado Springs facility, supporting both Sunny and her foster family. But this is only possible if Underdogs is able to find her a dedicated foster. Her foster home requirements are an adult only home as the only pup, in/near/willing to travel to CO Springs for potential in-person foster training, experience with large breed dogs/dogs with some fearfulness and mild reactivity, and who are committed long-term, if necessary.



Sunny is truly an amazing dog and though it sounds like she has a lot stacked up against her, she has a whole network of support behind her to make sure she is successful in her new home. So many people would say "no" to a dog like Sunny, but we know her sunniest sides - everything that is loving, endearing and oh so darling - will warm the right heroes heart and help her overcome her heartbreaking past.



If you feel you may be a good fit for Sunny and would like to be considered as her foster and/or foster to adopt, please fill out anapplication 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.
