Astrid's Story

Meet Astrid, a beautiful one-year-old, 35-pound medium-sized mixed breed who appears to have some type of herding dog in the mix.<br/><br/>Astrid came to us from Fresno after arriving at the shelter with her unhoused owner. Sadly, her person was unable to take her back, leaving this young girl behind with an uncertain future. Thankfully, Astrid made her way to us, and now she’s ready to find the family she deserves.<br/><br/>Astrid is truly a sweet soul. She is gentle, affectionate and seems to like everyone she meets. She is also smart, eager to please and very food motivated, which makes her a fantastic candidate for someone who enjoys training and wants to build a strong bond with their dog.<br/><br/>We suspect Astrid had very little formal training during her first year of life, so she is still learning some of the basics. She would thrive with structure, consistency and someone excited to continue showing her the ropes. She wants to learn and, more importantly, she wants to be with her person.<br/><br/>Astrid is dog friendly and would love to have a canine buddy in her new home. Her ideal family would have a house with a securely fenced yard, a flexible schedule and an active lifestyle. At just a year old, she has plenty of energy and would make an incredible walking, hiking and adventure companion.<br/><br/>This is a dog who has spent the beginning of her life without much stability, but you would never know it from her loving personality. Astrid is ready to learn what it feels like to have a home, a routine and people who are hers forever.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a smart, loving, medium-sized dog who can join you on adventures and then come home and be your loyal companion, Astrid might be your perfect match.<br/><br/>Adoption fee is 300

Underdog Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
Thank you for reading about our awesome dogs. All dogs came to us from different situations and we often do not know much about their past, but they are rescue dogs who deserve a second chance and need patience on their journey. All of our dogs our are in foster homes all across the bay area. The first step of the process is you must submit an application in order to set up a meet and great or talk with the foster family. Once application is submitted the foster parents will contact you to chat more about the dog and make sure they're a good fit and can answer any further question. The application answers most of all of our questions and can best match you. If you do not get the dog you apply for we can use your same application for 90 days towards another dog in our care and simply forward your app to that foster parent. **Reminder we are all volunteers working hard to save these dogs, some dogs may receive 20+ application to all be reviewed. We do our best to respond to all apps as we can. Please be patient and feel free to send us a follow up email if needed. http://form.jotform.com/underdogca/dog-adoption-application All dogs will be fully vetted (Spay/ Neutered, Micro chipped, DHPP and Rabies Vaccinated) and other possible vet care prior to adoption. The adoption fees vary by animal and are considered a non refundable donation Visit us at www.underdogca.com or follow us on IG@underdoganimalrescueca https://www.facebook.com/underdogCA A little more 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. 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.
