Story
Bailey  is a 2.5 year-old Maltese mix .  He was surrendered  because  his owner  was not prepared for the energy of a young puppy .  He is all legs and is still like a gangly Colt at this point.  He's very kissy and huggable once he gets to know you,  but he also has lots of energy and so will need a fenced-in backyard.  Bailey is not good with children, so he would be best in a home with adults and no kids under 13.  He weighs 15 pounds. He is house trained (not perfect) and crate trained. Alcovy dogs are spayed/neutered, up to date on all vaccines, up to date on heart-worm preventative and flea preventative and micro-chipped. If interested in adoption, please complete an online application on Alcovy Pet Rescue's website at www.alcovypet.com. You must have a vet reference to adopt. We verify the care of past/current pets. Applications without a vet reference will not be approved for adoption. Our goal is to have the very best home for all our dogs and cats and therefore we reserve the right to approve or deny an application based on what we determine is in the pet's best interest.If interested in adoption, please complete an online application on Alcovy Pet Rescue's website at www.alcovypet.com.  You must have a vet reference to adopt.  We verify the care of past/current pets.  Applications without a vet reference will not be approved for adoption.

Story
Whiskey is the perfect mix of puppy energy and soulful affection. His absolute favorite thing in the world is his ball—he loves to run, retrieve, and bring it right back to you for another throw. He has the stamina to play for hours, making him a fantastic match for older children who want a tireless playmate. But once the ball is put away, Whiskey reveals his softer side. While he might be just a little shy upon first meeting, give him an hour and he will be your shadow. He loves to be held, is currently learning to give kisses, and will literally melt into your arms when you pick him up. He gets along great with other small dogs and is even friends with the feral/outdoor cat in his foster home. Whether you are a family with older kids, a couple, or single, Whiskey seems to adapt perfectly to the vibe of the home. Whiskey is ready to be your loyal best friend. If you have a ball to throw and a lap to offer, he’s ready to come home. Apply today on the MACS Friends website!November 27, 2025, 9:33 pm

Story
I brought Louie home at 8wks old in NOVEMBER 2022. He was 1 of 6 puppies from the litter. My son chose him because he was the only one that knew to go straight to the pee pad to urinate, Lol and named him Louie. He settled into our home well after a few weeks and has been a great, loving, cuddly, addition to our family since. My housewarming gift to myself when I purchased my new home. I've been working Remote from home since Covid, so its been great having the flexibility to walk him daily & play in my free time. Only crated when I run errands but goes with me at times and LOVES car rides. He's well trained and will go to the door to let me know he wants to go outside. Very lovable, well behaved family dog. I've had absolutely no problems at all. Unfortunately, my job is returning to the office in the new year full-time, so my schedule and flexibility with Louie will drastically change. Doggy daycare is too expensive so I have to rehome my Louie, hopefully to a very dog loving home.

Story
Please read the entire bio for this rescue, it will provide all the information that one needs to decide if they would like to apply to adopt from SCMR. Adoption Fee: $500.00   Hi there! I’m Toto — a 1-year-old, 5-pound Maltese boy who’s still wondering why my forever family hasn’t found me yet. I may be tiny, but my heart (and energy!) are huge! I love zooming around the house, playing with toys, and being right by your side. I’m what you might call a “total puppy” — curious, bouncy, and full of life.   I’m currently in my foster home in Georgia, where I spend my days playing and my nights cuddled up in bed with my foster mom. Yep, I sleep in the human bed because that’s where I feel safest and happiest! I also love being held — it’s my favorite thing.   I get along really well with other dogs, though I’ll admit that big dogs can be a little intimidating because, well, I’m only 5 pounds! My foster home doesn’t have any cats, so no one knows quite how I’d do around them yet. I’m still working on my house training — I’m a young guy and learning fast with a little help and patience.   Because of my small size and playful puppy energy, my ideal home would be with someone experienced with tiny dogs who understands how to keep me safe and happy.   Medical Update: I have a condition called cryptorchidism, which means one or both of my testicles didn’t descend properly. It’s a genetic condition, and to avoid putting me at risk with invasive surgery, SCMR decided not to proceed with neutering. My adopter must understand this condition and agree to keep me away from any females in heat. My adoption contract will include a requirement that I never be used for breeding.   Other than that, I’m healthy, happy, and not on any medications!   Even though I’m just a year old, I fall under SCMR’s Seniors for Seniors policy — which means our rescue is proud to consider adopters who are 70+ years old for rescues age 7 and up. While I’m a young pup myself, SCMR encourages everyone to also think about adopting one of our amazing senior dogs. They have so much love to give and truly make a house feel like home.   So… what do you say? I’m ready to bring joy, cuddles, and lots of zoom-zoom energy into your life. Could you be the one I’ve been waiting for?   — Love, Toto   Out-of-state adoptions are possible; however, the approved adoptive home is responsible for making the necessary arrangements to pick up their new little one.  To be considered to adopt me, please fill out an APPLICATION.  NOTE: SCMR does not adopt to homes with children under the age of 10 years or homes with Electric Fences. You can help make a difference one dog at a time. If you would like to sponsor one of our babies, we accept online donations via PayPal or send a check to us at P.O. Box 2005, Chattanooga, TN 37409. We thank you for whatever you can help us with. Any donation is appreciated and is tax deductible, as allowed by law,  as we are a qualified non-profit 501(c)3 organization.    All our males are sent with BELLY BANDS!    for a one time Donation that goes direct to SCMR please go to our paypal link: November 20, 2025, 6:36 pm
