Story
Hello! My name is Oso, which means “bear” in Spanish—but don’t let the name fool you! I’m a gentle giant with a heart full of love. I was saved just three hours before my time was up at the county shelter, and even though I’m a senior, I have so much life and love left to give! I’m all about people—I love them, like really, really love them. After spending my whole life outdoors, I’m absolutely thrilled by the comfort of indoor air conditioning and a doggy door that lets me wander into the yard whenever I want. Life is good! One of my favorite things is carrying around my stuffed toys, especially the small ones—they make me so happy! I also love chasing a ball and am the best boy when it’s time for a bath. Treats are my weakness, especially chicken tacos (yum!). I’m looking for a home where I can be the only dog because I just want to soak up all the love for myself. I’m easygoing, never bark, and my tail wiggles with joy when I meet new friends. I’m dreaming of a forever home where I can give lots of kisses, enjoy scratchies, and just be your loyal companion for the rest of my days. If you can offer me a place to call home, please reach out to my foster mom, Jenn, at 602-710-4143. I can’t wait to meet you! ❤️ I’m a courtesy post for Valley Dogs Rescue.

Story
Please note this dog is NOT an official Underdog dog, and you will be connected with the person who has the dog. Please Contact Carrie, 413-949-1872, charleme3@gmail.com:   MEET TITAN #2!! Titan is super lovey once he gets to know you. He listens well unless he is busy barking and chasing the chickens behind a fence. He is very food motivated which would help with training. He is eager to please and would thrive with a strong leader to help work with him and show him the way. He does not chew on random things or try to escape. He loves walks and is good  on a harness. But, to be honest, he would rather sniff than walk. He is house trained and sleeps in his kennel at night. Titan does not do well with other dogs, so he needs to be the only pet in the home. He is food aggressive and will only eat his food off the floor. Currently, he is in a home with his doggie siblings but he wants all the attention and fights have occurred. Are you looking for a laid back, big boy to hang out with? Meet Titan today! If you are interested in meeting this dog, please visit our website for our online application www.underdogaz.com  PLEASE NOTE: This dog is courtesy posted for another individual or Rescue. Different policies and fees may apply. June 30, 2026, 2:21 pm

We received Canyon from a friend who found her. She is roughly 5 years old, and around 90-100 lbs. She tends to sleep during the day, and usually likes at least 1 walk per day. She's talkative like a typical husky and will talk when she wants something. She gets along well with cats and kids!

Story
Pinta and her 3 siblings came into the shelter scared and unsure what was going on. Pinta still isn`t sure what`s happening, but she has made great strides during her time here. While she can be nervous with new people, once she`s familiar and comfortable, she is a playful and bouncy girl! She especially loves playing with other dogs, so we feel that having a doggie friend in her new home might help her feel comfortable and make her integration with her human friends smoother.

Meet Shep, he came to the shelter as a stray, but he arrived with plenty of charm and those classic fun-loving husky traits! He’s a smart, playful boy who already knows his basic commands and is potty-trained. He loves to stay active and engaged, especially when toys and water are involved.One of Shep’s most endearing quirks is his adorable bunny hops when he gets excited it’s impossible not to smile watching him! He’s done well with other dogs at the shelter and enjoys social play with his canine friends.Shep is looking for a home that can keep up with his energetic, intelligent nature and give him plenty of enrichment, exercise, and love. If you’re ready for a fun, adventurous companion, Shep is your guy!
