Maltese & More Rescue

Maltese And More Rescue is a small, compassionate 501(c)(3) non-profit dog rescue founded in 2015. We are an "all volunteer organization" dedicated to rescuing puppy mill, abandoned, and unwanted small dogs. Our volunteers are located within Southern California. We are funded soley by charitable donations which go directly to the care and medical needs of the animals we rescue. Our mission is to work together as a group, and in conjunction with other animal rescue groups as well as The Department of Animal Services to rehabilitate, medically treat, spay/neuter, foster, and place each animal we rescue into loving, quality forever homes. We work to educate the public about the importance of spay/neuter and about proper and humane animal care.

Additional adoption info

The first step to our adoption process is to complete an adoption application at our website www.malteseandmorerescue.org/application/.

Once we review and approve your application, we require a home safety check, at which time we will introduce the rescue dog to your home and family. Once approved, we complete an adoption contract and collect the adoption fees.
All adoption fees include spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations, vet exam.
