SOMAD is a 501(c)3 dedicated to rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of small dogs. We are based in Chattanooga, TN with a volunteer base from Georgia to Maryland. SOMAD was formed in 2015, but our Board members have many years of experience with rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming dogs. We are an all volunteer organization and do not have a facility. All of our dogs live in foster homes until they are adopted. Our dogs come in to rescue for various reasons although many were abandoned at high kill shelters in the southeast and others are surrendered to us by owners that can no longer care for them. We are limited with taking in strays based on the local animal laws (check with your local shelter about your local rules regarding strays). Our goal for each dog that comes through our homes is to be loved and treated as a member of the family. All of our funding comes from donations and adoption fees. Many of our dogs come from bad situations that require more than the typical vetting requirements. Our adoption fees often do not cover the cost of vetting and physical care and we therefore rely on donations from our supporters. Please consider making a donation of whatever denomiation is possible for you. No donation is too small!
