My story

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

Meet Capri — a Hidden Gem Ready to Bloom

Capri is a 4-year-old German Shepherd/Cattle Dog mix with a heart as soft as her gentle gaze. Weighing in at 55 pounds, she’s a sensitive soul who’s slowly learning the world isn’t such a scary place after all. What she needs now is a calm, patient adopter who can help her continue that journey with kindness and consistency.

Once she feels safe, Capri walks beautifully on leash, enjoys gentle pets, and lights up for treats — she already knows how to sit! While the noisy shelter has been overwhelming for her, outside the kennel she reveals her affectionate, soulful nature.

Capri will thrive in a quiet, stable home without young children. A confident dog sibling could help her gain confidence, and someone with experience working with shy or fearful dogs would be a huge plus.

She doesn’t need grand adventures — just a soft voice, a steady hand, and someone who sees the magic in the small wins. If you believe the most beautiful connections take time to grow, Capri is waiting to meet you.

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.
