My story

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

Meet Chief, a loving and spirited sweetheart! This darling boy is not only clever and energetic but gets along fantastically  other other female dogs. Chief has also cohabitated peacefully with two male dogs that were smaller than him. Chief would thrive in an active home with another medium to high-energy dog or as the only dog with plenty of exercise.  Because of his energy level, Chief is seeking an adult-only home or those with children aged teens and above.  Chief is crate and house-trained, making the transition to his furever home even smoother, especially with his food motivation! His favorite activities include  playing fetch, tossing his durable toys in the air, and chewing on a peanut butter-filled Kong. If you can throw a tennis ball, you'll have a friend for life in Chief! Chief is friendly and super affectionate. He cherishes his people and delights in snuggles and belly rubs. Chief sleeps contently in his crate through the night but prefers the companionship of his humans as much as possible during the day.  Don't hesitate to send in your application for Chief at https://underhoundrailroad.org/adoption-application/.

Chief is currently being fostered in North Carolina and may transport along the East Coast as far North as Maine to his adoptive home.

More about this rescue

Underhound Railroad was formed in 2009 by a group of friends, with the goal of rescuing innocent dogs from death row in Connecticut shelters. Underhound Railroad has now grown to include rescue communities in Maine, Connecticut, Rhode Island, North Carolina, South Carolina and Utah.

With our focus on rural areas where shelters are overflowing with abandoned dogs waiting to find rescue, our network of Underhound volunteers work hard to prevent undeserved deaths, see that medical, emotional and behavioral needs are tended to, and transportation as well as a loving foster family are provided to the pups on their journey to finding their forever homes!
