My story

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

MEET BUDDY!

True to his name, Buddy is the ultimate companion. This 30 lb bundle of joy is playful, affectionate, and always ready to make new friends — both human and canine. He loves toys, treats, and romping around with other dogs, making him the perfect match for a home with a playful dog sibling.

Buddy is house trained, crate trained, and eager to please. He’s still learning to walk calmly on leash with a gentle leader, but he’s fantastic off leash on pet-friendly trails where he can safely explore and stay close. He’s happiest when he’s not alone, so a home where he has a dog buddy or someone around most of the day would be ideal.

He’s got an adorable underbite that makes his sweet, expressive face even more lovable. Buddy is young, smart, and ready for a forever family who will appreciate his enthusiasm for life and his snuggly side, too.

Buddy Would Love a Home With:
• Another friendly, playful dog
• A secure, fenced yard (6 ft required)
• An active home that includes him in daily life
• Someone home often or a dog companion to keep him company
• Continued leash training and lots of playtime

Buddy is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to be your new best friend.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All potential adopters will be required to complete our Adoption Application, read and sign our Adopting Policies and Procedures, and participate in a home visit by one of our adoption representatives. Our Adoption Application is located on our website: www.underdogaz.com.

We also have a mandatory two-week Foster With Intent to Adopt trial period for all animals in order to be certain the pet is a good fit for your family.

Our standard adoption fee for dogs is $200; puppies are $250.

Non-standard fees do sometimes apply. Puppies younger than six months may have a higher fee. Designer dogs, purebreds, and other toy type breeds may also have higher adoption fees than the standard $200.

We do, however, have discounted fees for dogs that are seniors, a pair of dogs adopted together, or cats. If you are a veteran or an active duty service member, please ask about our partnership with Pets For Patriots.

All Underdog pets are spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations and microchipped prior to adoption.

We are a 501c3 non profit, your donations save lives and are 100% tax deductible.

Go meet their pets

We attend multiple adoption events throughout the valley during Spring and Fall.
If you are interested in a specific pet, please complete our adoption application found on our website and we can then coordinate a meet and greet.

More about this rescue

Underdog Rescue of Az is an all volunteer organization dedicated to the rescuing and re-homing of abandoned and/or abused dogs.

We are a foster-based rescue, and do not maintain a physical base of operations. All of our animals are placed with loving, caring safe foster families until they are adopted. We are also an "All Breed" rescue, and do not discriminate based on breed, age, size, etc.

Underdog's mission also includes educating the public on the issue of animal welfare. We strive to promote shelter reform, spay and neuter education and emergency rescue information & assistance.
