American Maltese Assoc. Rescue-NY

Dog rescue in NY, NY

American Maltese Association Rescue was formed in 1995 for the charitable purpose of rescuing homeless or soon to be homeless Maltese and Maltese mixes, including those found in animal shelters and those relinquished by their owners. Our organization continues today as a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit with an all volunteer staff and foster care providers. Every rescue Maltese is provided with necessary medical care including spay/neutering. All of our dogs reside in foster homes where they are socialized and treated as loving pets until adopted.
