EuGe is a 9 year old Maltese Terrier cross. He came from a home where they couldn’t care for the dogs any longer. He gets along great with other dogs. He isn’t sure about cats and sometimes barks at mine. He’s a great companion dog, follows me and sits beside my chair. He is passive but playful when stimulated. He’s the perfect little laid back gentleman for a quieter home. He’s leash trained and will use pads. His Vetting is complete: neutered, all vaccinations, flea tick heartworm prevention, dewormed. He has medium length hair but has a shorter summer clip right now. Email arkofcleveland@aol.com or call 423-472-2744.

Crouton (FL)

Maltese Coton de Tulear

Male, Senior

Chattanooga, TN

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

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: $125.00 Crouton is about 13 years old and weigh 17 pounds, he is a very sweet and loving fella, he is almost totally deaf, but he can hear and respond to very loud noises. Crouton has a lot of health issues, so he will need a home that is willing to see him through any flareups and be okay with the cost. He is partially housetrained, and may need to wear belly bands (male diapers), he tolerates them well, they need to be changed many times a day. A person can choose to not use them if they want, but he will lift his leg and mark. A supply of the belly bands and pads will be provided at the time of adoption, that will be enough to last a week or more. He enjoys to go outside, so his ideal home would be to have a nice and safe fenced yard for him to enjoy. He was diagnosed with an intestinal disease, but he is doing great now, and the flareup seems to have passed. He also has had ear infections, so his doctor recommends a maintenance medicine to help this, a couple of drops every few days. He does not care for that very much, but he will let let the drops be put in both ears. He is also prone to skin infections, so it would be crucial to make sure he is dry if a person chooses to use belly bands. He has cysts on his shoulder and just below his ear, his doctors feel confidant they are benign, and because of his age and health, and that there are so many, we are not having them removed. He recently had a dental, poor guy lost 15 teeth, he is healing nicely from that, we also did have one growth removed, it was an odd skin growth that was hanging about 4 inches down from his chest. We opted to removed that one, because of it's location and that it could possibly get caught on something and possibly hurt him. Crouton does have a bit of separation anxiety, and will get into thing, like trashcans, and will try to chew shoes, cardboard...he is not choosy! Crouton is waiting for his forever home in Gainesville, FL.

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. Cheerio Cheerio (previously named Cymba) is a 6 yr F Maltese that was rescued from a not so good breeder situation in Virginia. She had a lot of people rooting for her and dedicated to getting her to Chattanooga, TN so she could start living the life she deserves. She even got to fly in an airplane! She is currently fostered by Dr. Amy Holford in Chattanooga due to her range of health conditions and need for daily medications. She will continue to be fostered until she is deemed healthy and ready for adoption. It’s going to be a long road…. Next up for Cheerio is an interventional surgery where our local cardiologist will attempt to place a coil into her patent ductus arteriosis (PDA) which should have closed at birth. Access will be through a large vein in her back leg and will need to be performed under anesthesia. She will have a one night hospital stay for her procedure. Since she has been living with this condition since she was born her heart has become enlarged and she requires two heart medications that will likely need to be continued long term. That will be based on follow up echocardiograms and recommendations from the cardiologist. This is the same heart condition that sweet baby Huckleberry had and I do believe they may be related! In addition, Cheerio needs to have a spay, her large reducible umbilical hernia repaired and she is in desperate need of a dental with extractions. She also has asymptomatic luxating patellas that will need to be watched long term. Despite her medical hardships Cheerio is such a sweet, spunky, sassy and fun little girl. She loves most other dogs (only issue was my female doodle when Cheerio was in heat) especially her foster brothers (or should we say boyfriends!!) that are a Maltese, toy poodle and bichon frise! She is active and loves to get zoomies and chew on bones. She’s not huge on toys. She loves going to the dog park and anywhere you are going in the car. She can figure out how to get out of the open car windows though so if she needs to be left for a short time in the car she would be best off in a crate/kennel. She likes wearing clothes! She is pee pad trained and does well wearing a diaper. She will occasionally have an accident especially if you have accessible floor vent grates (I think this has to do with previously being on metal crating/grate material). She crates up well but does bark when left alone. She is up to date on her vaccinations. At this time we need all the help we can get financially to provide her with her heart medications, her interventional PDA repair procedure, cardiac follow ups, as well as her spay, hernia repair, and dental.
