🐾 Harry’s 100-Day Journey 🐾

I’ve been here over 100 days, but I don’t count the first ones—I wasn’t myself. I was scared, alone, and unsure if I could trust anyone. But soon, I realized this place meant warmth, food, and the best part... treats!

Now, I’m thriving—running, playing, and enjoying long walks. I even sneak in couch time at the office! I’m learning new things every day and know that with the right people, life can be warm and wonderful.

The MAARC Mission

Maryville / Alcoa Animal Rescue Center, (MAARC) is an all volunteer animal rescue group. Our mission is to rescue animals in danger of being euthanized in our local shelter, with a purpose of creating a safe, no kill community and eventually advancing animal welfare for animals in surrounding county shelters or beyond.

MAARC is extremely fortunate to partner with the Maryville City Shelter. The shelter staff and animal control officers work cohesively with our group to get animals adopted directly from the shelter.

Our page and any other social media avenue, is a critical piece of finding our animals permanent homes or foster homes. Look for us in the near future on petfinder.com and other adoption websites.

Visit our website at www.maarc-adopt.org, and please like our social media pages, which include, Instagram and Twitter, share the animals, and stay tuned for current and future events!
