Areas Save One Make A Difference - Greensboro serves

SOMAD is a 501(c)3 dedicated to rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of small dogs. We are based in Chattanooga, TN with a volunteer base from Georgia to Maryland.

We are an all volunteer organization and do not have a facility. All of our dogs live in foster homes until they are adopted. Our dogs come in to rescue for various reasons although many were abandoned at high kill shelters in the southeast and others are surrendered to us by owners that can no longer care for them. We are limited with taking in strays based on the local animal laws (check with your local shelter about your local rules regarding strays). Our goal for each dog that comes through our homes is to be loved and treated as a member of the family.

All of our funding comes from donations and adoption fees. Many of our dogs come from bad situations that require more than the typical vetting requirements. Our adoption fees often do not cover the cost of vetting and physical care and we therefore rely on donations from our supporters. Please consider making a donation of whatever denomination is possible for you. No donation is too small!

About Save One Make A Difference - Greensboro

SOMAD was formed in 2015, but our Board members have many years of experience with rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming dogs. We focus on small dogs that are in need; whether they are in a shelter or are an owner surrender. We love our seniors, but do not discriminate based on age.

Our biggest need is more foster homes! Each foster home allows us to save more dogs. Once they are in a foster home, the dogs' adoptability skyrockets!

Adopt a Pet is the easiest way for you to search for a new pet in Greensboro, NC.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
