My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Chewbacca (Chewie) is a 5 yr old german shepherd/australian shepherd mix (we’re pretty sure there is chow in there but have never done DNA testing). His birthday is June 19, 2019. He is a playful doggy who loves being part of the family, tummy rubs, and playing catch out in the yard. He has no health issues and is a great companion for walks and runs. He also loves a crisp fall day and has a great coat for the snowy weather. He enjoys exercise and outside time, but he has also grown out of the puppy hyper-ness and has a calm demeanor for the most part. He is also excellently house trained. He will bark when people come to the door, but he is not an excessive barker or extremely vocal. Chewie can tolerate grooming, but he does not like to have his nails clipped and he can resource guard his food/water or his cozy sleeping spots with other dogs. We would recommend a family with older children and either no other dogs or dogs of a similar age. We would not recommend a family with small children or senior dogs. He is a lovable, sensitive guy!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

At MAMCO we understand that in order to continue rescuing moms and babies, we must stretch our finances as far as we are able. For this reason we use variable adoption pricing.

By assigning higher adoption fees to high demand moms and puppies, we are able to rescue more families in need.The money raised through these adoptions acts as a benefactor to moms and puppies in our care who require expensive veterinary treatments, have behavioral issues, or need more time to find a home. We often reduce the adoption fees on these harder-to-place moms and puppies to help them find forever families.

More about this rescue

We are a 501c3 non-profit rescue dedicated to saving pregnant and nursing dogs from high kill shelters all over the country. We are entirely foster based and do not keep dogs at our central location.

Our mission evolved from the desire to ensure that all mother dogs got the chance to find their forever families. Many mother dogs are euthanized in shelters because they are pregnant, nursing, or they are killed once their puppies have been rescued or adopted. At MAMCO we feel that moms matter and for that reason we give them a safe haven where they can raise their puppies, get the training and behavioral support they need, and also receive important veterinary care. Most moms and their litters are with us for two months before adoption. This makes us a very unique rescue, because of the costs and time associated with each litter of puppies.

In addition to our regular mission, we also sponsor several spay and neuter programs in rural areas to help keep dogs with their owners. Throughout our travels we have learned that many dogs are not spayed because of the high cost of vet care in rural areas. People love their dogs, but genuinely cannot afford to spay/neuter. With these programs we spay the mother dogs and allow them to stay with their owners. We then organize the safe transfer and adoption of their litters of puppies. In this way we ensure that all dogs are spayed/neutered to prevent further contributions to the pet overpopulation problem.
