Underdog Pet Rescue of Wisconsin, Inc.
We are a 501(c)3 all-breed companion animal rescue based out of Dane County, WI
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 services and outreach.
We are a pet rescue which takes animals from shelters so the animals are safe when shelter space runs out. We put them in our volunteer foster homes so the animals can get all they need while they await their forever homes. We are open Thursday evenings and Sunday afternoons for meet and greets. Not all animals are in attendance at these open hours.
We are now offering full-service veterinary care Monday-Thursday during the day. We provide spays and neuters and dental care for cats and dogs, as well as other basic health services (vaccines, blood work, microchips, etc).
We offer lower-cost spay/neuter services to everyone, but help with other health services on a sliding scale basis with a focus on helping those who can't afford standard veterinary care.
Email us at vetcare@underdogpetrescue.org to make an appointment for veterinary services.
