About Us

For us it is about the dogs. 

Atlantic Maltese Rescue, Inc. is a group of volunteers along the East Coast from New England to Georgia. 

Our volunteers provide foster homes while working to find forever homes for abandoned, neglected, impounded, or unwanted purebred Maltese dogs.  We do not have a shelter; our rescued dogs are fostered in our homes and the homes of those who volunteer as foster parents. Many of our volunteers are foster parents, many volunteers help in other capacities. If you are interested in finding out about how you can help AMR please visit our Volunteer & Donation  page of this site.  Our volunteers work to ensure that we find the very best forever home for the dogs in our care. We take a number of steps to match the right dog with the right people. These steps are described on the Adoption Process page of our website, included among them are pre-adoption home visits and continued follow-up support for our adoptive families.
