Unforgettable Underdogs Dog Rescue is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, volunteer run, 100% foster-based, dog rescue serving the Northeast Wisconsin area. We are dedicated to rescuing the underdogs, those who have found themselves homeless and truly need us. We strive to help dogs in area high-kill shelters, those that do not do well in shelters, dogs given up or abandoned by their owners. We’re here for the fearful, shy, injured, sick, abused, neglected, or simply put… the underdog. We provide the highest quality of care for each dog based on their individual needs, while they are in loving foster homes. We focus on quality of care, not quantity of animals. We find loving, responsible, committed permanent homes. An in-depth adoption process is used, which includes taking considerable care in finding perfect matches and educating potential adopters about the responsibilities of bringing a dog, especially their particular dog, into their life. So simply, our mission is saving the lives of underdogs in our area and providing community programs that create a better world for homeless dogs. Dogs we care for are spayed or neutered, treated for any medical needs they have, and placed into loving foster homes until they find their permanent home. We aim to help distressed dogs, no matter the age or breed. We are determined to keep overhead expenses extremely low so that the greatest amount possible goes directly to the care of the animals. We vow to take a follow through interest in the dog’s welfare well beyond the adoption process. Finally, it is our ultimate goal to work with area shelters and other local organizations in order to develop a network of supporters and volunteers, along with community programs, in order to create a better world for homeless pets. Unforgettable Underdogs was founded by Gloria Boyce, Lacey Kieffer, Sara Miller, and Katie Nechodom with a dream to save the Wisconsin underdogs in most need one at a time.
