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!December 16, 2025, 9:45 pm
