Story
Meet Bruno! He’s a lovable, playful guy with an infectious smile and a heart full of joy. At 65lbs, Bruno isn’t exactly a lap dog though he wishes he could be! He definitely loves to shower his humans with affection. Bruno is friendly with everyone he meets and never a stranger to anyone. We think he’d do best as the only dog in the home. With slow and proper introductions, Bruno can make new friends with other dogs that are willing to join in on the fun. Bruno has the most adorable face with one ear that stands up and the other that flops—how cute is that? He’s a big fan of treats, toys, and frozen goodies to help him stay cool. While he loves to run after thrown objects, he’s still figuring out the whole “fetching” thing. Bruno walks well on a leash but needs more practice with not pulling since his current foster home has a nice fenced yard where he spends most of his time. He’s house trained and crate trained, and when left loose in the house, he behaves himself like a good boy. Bruno would thrive in a home with kids aged 10 and older due to his exuberance and his not-so-small size. His favorite spot to relax? The couch! Bruno loves sprawling out on the sectional, though he’s always happy to make room for his people. He’s also a big fan of giving sweet kisses and cuddles to show his love. Bruno is so ready to meet his furever family, and his adoption fee has been partially sponsored, with $300 of the fee covered, so now's the perfect time to make him part of your family. Ready to make Bruno’s dreams come true? Apply for adoption today at www.underhoundrailroad.org! Bruno is currently fostered in South Carolina but can be transported along the East Coast to his new family, as far North as Maine. Don’t miss out on this happy boy who’s excited to share his love and energy with you! September 16, 2025, 3:59 pm

Story
Looking for a loyal, loving sidekick with just the right mix of play and snuggles? Meet Tinkerbell! Tinkerbell is a 5 year old pittie with a sleek black coat, bright eyes, and a heart full of love. She’s the perfect balance of playful and calm. Just as happy zooming around the yard as she is curled up next to you for some well earned cuddle time. She’s got a playful streak that will make you smile every day. Whether she’s tossing a ball around by herself or chasing the water hose with joy and determination, Tinkerbell knows how to have fun! Indoors, she’s incredibly affectionate and sweet. She lives for couch cuddles and quality time with her people. Tinkerbell has received ongoing professional training and is thriving with structure and routine. Her trainer describes her as “soft," meaning she’s sensitive, connected, and eager to please. She’s also learning how to feel confident and calm in her surroundings, and she takes direction beautifully from people she trusts. She’s crate trained, house trained, and walks nicely on leash. She enjoys enrichment toys (especially Kongs with yogurt or peanut butter), and her dream day includes a walk, some playtime, and curling up with her favorite human at the end of it. Tinkerbell enjoys meeting new people and has done well with respectful children. She would love a home where she can continue to feel safe and supported.  A home where she can be your one-and-only or share the space with a calm, easygoing dog who understands personal space. With slow, thoughtful introductions, she’s shown she can happily coexist and feel at ease. Tinkerbell’s story is one of resilience and love. She spent 8 months as a stray before trusting someone enough to accept help—right after giving birth under a shed. Since her rescue, she’s blossomed in foster care and is now fully ready to find her furever home. Her adoption fee is partially sponsored ($150 already covered!), and she’s ready to start her next chapter. Tinkerbell is currently fostered in North Carolina and can be transported to an approved adopter along the East Coast, as far north as Maine. If you’re ready to welcome a loyal, affectionate, and playful companion into your life, Tinkerbell is ready to meet you!

Story
Looking for your soulmate in dog form? Meet Pinky! Pinky is a 3 year-old, 45 pound pocket pittie with a heart of gold, a love of fetch, and snuggles for days. She’s not just adorable, she’s the whole package: smart, sweet, playful, and ready to be your new best friend. Pinky is an absolute star student. She graduated from the Ultimate Dog Training Program at Proactive Dog Training in Cary, NC, and knows all her commands: sit, down, stay, here, yes, no, and out. She’s also crate trained, potty trained, and rocks her “place” command like a pro. Whether it’s time to relax or get moving, Pinky listens and responds with enthusiasm. She’s easy to live with and even easier to love. Her energy is just right: enough to keep you active and laughing, but not over the top. She loves fetch (like, really loves it), sniff-and-seek games, and mental enrichment. Though she’s just as happy to curl up with a chew bone and snooze beside you. A walk, a little play, and a lot of love is all she needs. Pinky is the ultimate cuddle buddy. She’s affectionate, goofy, and will happily be your little shadow around the house. If you’re looking for a loyal companion to share life with someone who will greet you like a hero every time you come home, this is your girl! She’s currently living with another dog and does well with calm, respectful pups. She’s not one for dog parks or high-energy dog play, but she can absolutely thrive with one dog companion or as your one and only. In fact, she'd love being the center of your world! Pinky would thrive in a home that loves a little adventure walks, jogs, play sessions and is ready to welcome a truly devoted, well-trained dog into the family. If you're ready to fall in love with a dog who gives you her whole heart, Pinky is ready to give you everything she's got. Pinky is currently being fostered in North Carolina and can be transported as far north as Maine to the right adoptive family. Apply now and bring Pinky home: https://underhoundrailroad.org/adoption-application/ September 21, 2025, 2:13 pm
