Whisky and mama Winnie need your financial support. These super happy-go-lucky maltipoos were literally handed off and surrendered in a Home Depot parking lot to our foster’s daughter. She saw the family trying to give them to anyone passing. She had no plan, but knew they needed to stay safe and were Underdogs. They were heavily overgrown and fully matted. Winnie who is likely Whiskeys mom was several pounds overweight and both with no medical records and severe ear infections. After allowing them to decompress awesome foster mom Rebecca shaved them down and gave them a new look on life. Today at their first exam we found out they both need full dentals and have severe dental infections needing extractions, plus shots, chips, and neutering. Our base quote to treat all of this is over $1000 per dog.
These dogs are 8 and 10years old, likely loved at some point, but were dumped in horrific condition. They are the sweetest loving dogs who are good with dogs, cats and kids and live to please. They are very bonded, and we would love to find them a forever home together. They are both about 20lbs and non-shed dogs. We lost our Facebook donation button along with 40,000 other non-profits last November which has had a huge financial impact on our fundraising efforts. We are desperate and want to save all the dogs regardless of needs, but without the community’s financial assistance we cannot continue to do so. Please consider making any monetary contribution today and share this far and wide with HOPE. Thank you for reading and supporting the Underdogs who need a voice.
A little about us:
Underdog Animal Rescue is a foster based rescue serving the Bay Area of Northern California. Since our start in 2014, we have built an outstanding team and have grown into a strong network of volunteers dedicated to saving the Underdogs in our shelters and community. We have dedicated our efforts to giving a second chance to the dogs that are most in need (medically or behaviorally) and the dogs that have been overlooked for too long. We rescue all breeds, sizes and ages. We average about 500 dogs per year.
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.
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. This is why 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 are able to continue our efforts.
