Story

I've had Bently for 12 years. I acquired him from a shelter the day after he came in. He was in bad condition. He was frightened and sick. The next day I took him to the hospital. it took two weeks before we really began bonding. Now I'm a active retired senior, and again working, so he spends alot of time alone. He loves to play and will bring you his toys, but be carefully, he doesn't play fair. ❤️ He will tap your leg when it needs to go out, and get vocal if you take too long. Everyone here knows and loves him. ❤️ When the neighborhood kids see us they each run to pet him. I talk to him, so he understands and responds to lots of words and when I had surgery, he would not leave my side. He makes dog friends easy, and rather not be around hyper active dogs. I've thought long and hard about giving him up... but I rather have others enjoy him than to have him spending so much time alone, he loves interaction. He is a great companion, loyal friend, and wonderful pet.

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: $450.00 Rocket Hi, it’s me, Rocket. I’m a purebred Maltese guy, only 4 years old and not quite 7 pounds. All my doctor’s visits are done, and I have a clean bill of health and sparkly white teeth. Of course, they all fell in love with me there! I’m working on my house manners but will need your support to get me outside often. I’ve been doing my “big business” outside. I’m learning not to lift my leg inside and I can wear a belly band until I get the hang of it. I like exploring in the fenced yard and doing my zoomies. I’m very fast - like a rocket! I like walking on the leash now too. I’ve been sleeping in my crate at night and never had an accident. I wouldn’t mind sleeping in your bed with you, though. I’m athletic and can jump and climb. Sometimes, I need to be reminded of the “no” places. May I suggest that you don’t leave goodies on the coffee table unless you’re willing to share them? I used to be a “stud muffin” but those days are over. Now I want to BE somebody’s baby. I love to be loved! People are my favorite thing, although food and treats are a close second. I mostly get along with other dogs (cats unknown), but I like all the attention and would rather not share your lap, so maybe I could be your “one and only”. Rocket, based on his age, falls under our Seniors for Seniors policy: The age rescue that SCMR is happy to consider adopting to applicants that are 70+ years old is 7+. Full policy details, please visit our website. https://www.scmradoption.com/policies I’m in my foster home in Little River, SC right now waiting for you. Adoption fee: $450.00 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: October 30, 2026, 12:10 am
