The Underbone Railroad is a group dedicated to helping animals in need get from shelters, foster homes or owner surrenders transported to other rescues, adopters and new foster homes in order to help save their lives.
Underbone Railroad is 100% volunteer and does not charge for help. Most volunteers live on the East Coast.
Jon Dibernardo, an Army Veteran, spent 28 years with the USPS before retiring in 2014. Even before retiring John knew he wanted to continue serving the animal welfare community and volunteered at local shelters and rescues. After being asked to transport several dogs, John knew he found his niche in rescue transport. John, along with several friends, started the Underbone Railroad to help with coordination and training of others interested in volunteering their time in rescue transport.
