The success stories are our favorite part. Each dog that is placed on this page lets us know that we are doing our jobs. Each dog that is placed on this page makes room for yet another dog to go into a foster home. Below are some of the success stories of dogs that have been adopted through Underdog ResQ. We ask each adoption family to keep in touch and send photos of their new companions with their new families.

Their owners lost their home due to financial hardship and they were forced to give their dogs up to a shelter. Underdog ResQ was able to find each a separate foster home but they were able to see each other from time to time. When we admitted Snoop we figured out that he was deaf. That made him seem less adoptable to some people despite his good looks and great charm. He was a very good boy. In July of 2010, five months after being admitted to our organization, Snoop was adopted. He now lives with a cool couple that take him on camping trips and are really enjoying his company. Here are some photos taken within the first couple of weeks of being adopted.

Cassie was brought to a NYC shelter where she spent a few days with an unknown future. Fortunately, Underdog ResQ discovered this little gem and was able to get her into a foster home before anything bad could happen! Cassie was brought to her foster home at about 5 months old and a little under weight. With the right love, care and medications- this beautiful 40 pound Pit Bull/Boxer mix was offered up for adoption just a short time later. Cassie quickly learned all the basic commands and showed her foster mom that she was nothing but a big bundle of love and joy. Cassie did well with children and enjoyed playing with her two foster brothers that were both UNDER 10 pounds! It only took a short two months until Brendan stepped in and showed a very strong interest in Cassie. Visits were made and one week later Cassie was brought to her forever home!!! She's the only pup in her new family and the first dog her owner has ever had on his own- Cassie will prove to be a wonderful dog for Brendan, as she won him over in just minutes. Cassie has spent the past week taking in all the sights, sounds and smells of the city, often crashing out on the couch before bedtime! Her foster mom feels honored to have had the opportunity to work with and place Cassie as she certainly changed her outlook on "big dogs".

She is a happy-go-lucky girl who was pregnant, in a very crowded shelter and was out of time. One by one, her puppies were adopted but Arly was left without a home to call her own. Underdog ResQ could not resist her sweet, smiling face and took her into their foster care program. During her 5 months in foster care, Arly learned how to live inside of a house and completed heartworm treatment. It was not an easy treatment, but Arly was in good spirits and pulled through with flying colors. While being treated at the hospital, a kind-hearted vet tech met Arly and fell in love with her. She could not resist adding Arly to her family. Arly continues to live in Charleston with her new mom and new sister (also a rescue dog!), Aspen.

Her destiny didn't look very good considering she was a pit bull and she had demodectic mange with extensive hariloss (see photo below). Luckily, one of our foster families with a dog, kids and a cat offered to help her. She was in foster care for only one month before she was adopted in October of 2009. Here is an update from her family in July of 2010: We adopted Pixie from Underdog back in October of 2009 and have not looked back once, as you can tell by the lag in the update! Pixie has been an absolute love and quickly became my partner in crime, comingwith me wherever I go and always ready for an adventure. When we got Pix, she was still battling with Demodex Mange, and I can say it was a tough and long battle but we're finally beyond it with only minimal evidence she was ever effected. It's hard dealing with relapses and seeing how miserable your dog can be, but fear not future adopters, it's a fight worth winning. Pixie has been the rule when it comes to pit bulls: a politician. She gets along with everyone she meets and has changed the mind of every skeptic she's run into. She's easily the happiest dog in America, whether she's romping around with play buddies, laying around in the grass, or sleeping in with me on a Saturday morning. I don’t remember not having Pixie and I'm certainly planning on adopting a sibling pit through Underdog ResQ in the future.

She spent one month in a foster home before she was adopted by a very loving family. Here's what they had to say about Lucy several months later in July of 2010: We knew Lucy was meant to be a part of our family the minute we met her at her foster-mom's store shopping for our 2 chihuahuas at home. She is akind, loving, gentle girl who melts your heart with her expressive eyes and loving heart. She quickly felt right at home considering her timidness atfirst, all thanks to her awesome foster-parents who we feel as if we have known for years! She gets along very well with our older chihuahuas, even cuddling on the couch together! Whether we are playing fetch at the nearby park or curled up on the couch, Lucy is the best companion we could have ever asked for. She never stops making us smile and laugh with her lack of gracefulness and passion for playing with multiple toys at once. She has begun to change people's views of the stereotypical "pit-bull", which we are determined to spread as far as we can. Having her in our lives only makes us wish we could have adopted sooner and begs the question of when we can adopt another! Thank you to Carolyn and Bill and Underdog ResQ for our sweet Lucy!

I have a back yard so I don't have to walk Rex every day. Wrong! Being let out in the backyard does not supply Rex with enough exercise. He needs to go on a nice long walk with you (on the leash) where he'll get plenty of exercise and be able to socialize with other dogs and people. If you can positively answer these questions and concerns, then you may be ready to adopt Rex. View Next >
