Underdogs Rock! Rescue

We are a small Portland, Oregon based 501c3 organization rescuing dogs from the over crowded shelters in Southern California, Alabama, and Hawaii. We foster the dogs until they are healthy and help them find their forever homes! Contact us at [email protected] work directly with Rescue Groups in Southern California to rescue dogs who are on their last days in the high-kill shelters. Because our dogs are in Foster Homes we get to know the dogs personalities and needs. As we know the dogs well and how they do in a home environment, we do a great job in matching families with the right dog, and the right family for the dog!

Meet Neo

Hi all!   I'm Neo, a 3 year old, 12ish pound  black & gold Yorkshire Terrier  fella who is on the search for my forever home and forever person / people.    Here's a little bit about me to see if I'm your best fit!  I'm a big fan of female-presenting humans, and a bit avoidant of male-presenting humans.  Sorry, not sorry.  I have lived with other dogs in the past, but to be quite honest, I'd much rather be your one and only.  Other dogs can get me riled up a bit, and then I don't make the best decisions - they bark, I bark at them, and then I may or may not be a little bitey with them when I don't know what we are barking at.  Their fault, not mine. Kids most likely would be a bit too much for me right now as well.      I L.O.V.E being outside - it's the best!  I'm going to need a fenced-in yard to play in and keep you company while you do yard-type things.  I'm also quite athletic - I love to play with my ball, either with you or without you, and can jump pretty darn high if I do say so myself (said with a puff of the chest and a straightening of the bow tie.) I'm super smart and a quick learner too!   I'm looking for my forever person to be patient with me, especially at first.  Moving is a lot for a little fella like me, and I may be a bit independent before warming up to you.  As long as you are patient, give me structure so my day is a bit predictable, and let me decompress at my speed, I bet we could be great friends.  I met a trainer friend to let her know all about me, and she's going to help you get to know me (for free for you!). How cool is this! A certified professional comes with me!  Btw, once I settle in I love ear and belly rubs and spooning at night.  :)   Me + you + my ball + soft things + a yard + patience = forever!! Underdogs are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations and preventatives. Adoption fee is $390.  Neo is being fostered in SE Portland. You MUST have an Underdogs Rock Rescue application on file to request a meet with an Underdog. An online Underdogs Rock adoption application can only be accessed at  https://underdogsrock.org/adopt-a-dog  . You must be available to meet an Underdog in their foster's location and dogs are not held for applicants or shipped outside of the Portland metro area. Home checks are also part of the process and will be conducted virtually.
