Our mission is to find permanent homes for animals in need, and to enrich lives by strengthening the connection between animals and people through community outreach.

We have a bowling fundrasier coming up on Sunday, May 5. Come join us for bowling, food, a small silent auction, and more! This family-friendly event will be festive and fun.

Come meet some of our adoptable animals at our office space! The storefront address is 2138 Atwood Avenue in Madison. Our office hours are Thursdays 6:30-8:30pm and Sunday 12:00-4:00pm. You may also reach us via facebook, email ( This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. ), or phone (608-224-0018).

Please contact us if you are interested in being a foster home or event volunteer! The more foster homes we have, the more pets we can rescue.

If you are planning on purchasing your furry four legged friend a new bed, why not support the Underdog at the same time? With the Alpha Pooch Shelter Bed Program, a bed will be donated to Underdog for every one purchased by our supporters.
