Story
Good with: Small and medium dogsNot good with: Some fear of larger dogsHouse trained: YesEnergy level: LowNoise level: Some Hey there I'm Bear and I'm on a mission to find my perfect forever home. Let me tell you a bit about myself. First off I'm a big fan of my person or people. I love staying close to them showering them with kisses and soaking up all the belly rubs I can get. Home is where my heart is quite literally as I'm happiest when I'm indoors cozying up in my bed or snuggling in someone's lap. I recently finished heartworm treatment and did great throughout the treatment process. I won't have any special medical needs long term, other than continuing regular monthly heartworm preventatives to avoid reinfection, and can live a normal life. I've been resting and recovering well with my foster, and now I'm ready for my forever home! I enjoy short walks where I can explore independently but I'll also race down the hallway at lightning speed when the mood strikes. Playing with my favorite toys is always a blast and I have a particular penchant for socks and small articles of clothing. I like to collect them in one spot sometimes hiding them under couch pillows for safekeeping. But dont worry I wont actually damage them! I get along well with small dogs and I'm okay with calm medium-sized ones too. Overall I'm a playful affectionate and gentle guy with a touch of goofiness. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will stick by your side through thick and thin, I'm your Bear. Likes: My people; short walks; kisses; belly rubs; home/being indoors; walking independently; resting in bed or your lap; wet food; small dogs; toys; socks; broccoli and green beans Dislikes: My person leaving; long car rides; bigger dogs; rain My ideal home: Id prefer to be in a home where my owner is home more often than not. Otherwise I am very sweet and easy-going and would do well in many environments including apartment living and/or a home with other dogs of similar size!

Story
Meet Ollie, a sweet and silly Chihuahua mix. While slow to trust, he loves to cuddle up on the couch or under a blanket once he does. He's very clever and loves to learn tricks, and he'll do almost anything for a piece of cheese. Despite his tiny legs, this 10-pound pup will walk with you for as long as you want. He loves sniffing around, but he'll bark at the people you walk past (just in case they want to hurt him, or you). If you think of him like a semi-social rescue cat who wants love and snuggles but only on their terms, then you've got it; he's a dog that someone intended to make a cat, but messed up at the last second. He takes anti-anxiety medication every morning, and it works like a charm. He has half a lifetime of love still to give, and we want him to be very happy for his last 8-10 years. The perfect household is one with no other dogs, though a cat would be okay, with somebody who'll let him lounge in the sunshine all day, then cuddle up on the couch after work, and mayb

Story
Rodney is a very curious, mischievous little guy who gets into everything, just like a little puppy. They say this guy is around 8 years of age and weighs 12 pounds, but he acts like a kid and he shows it by running a lot out of pure joy and fun and he adores being outdoors and laying in the sun. He is not good on a leash yet and is not housebroken but we are working on both. Cats are not welcome in his world at this point because he finds them strange and annoying.  But he redeems himself with a family by loving to cuddle and snuggle.  Can you believe that underbite he has?  I mean it is the first thing you sort of notice about him.  It might make him look tough but Rodney is a 'softie' through and through.  He is just an adorable, sweet pup and he deserves a much better home than the hoarding conditions that he came from.  Maybe you want to help him see the blessings of a new home and secure lifestyle.  He will make you laugh, he will make you smile and he will make you feel loved!  Please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com if you are interested in giving him a forever home.  Please tell us the city and state that you live in when you write to us. PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.August 19, 2024, 2:03 pm

Story
Silver Sam is 5 years old and weighs 12 pounds.  Part of a big hoarding case, he was taken to the shelter and there he sat for a few months.  Critter Cavalry Rescue could not stand the thought that he was in that out of the way shelter where no one comes to adopt a dog.   We pulled  7 dogs from that hoarding case and some had been there for 6 months.  Sam is a hoot as they say.   He is funny and active and must be watched if in a chain link fenced yard.  He might find an escape route and take off just for the fun of it.  He doesn’t go far but he sure does love the chase.  He is good with other dogs and he is full of antics with the cats.  He is almost housebroken and he is just the most loving lap dog ever.  Such a great smile and attitude despite some terrible conditions in his previous life.  He is with someone that loves the Chihuahua breed and understands all the little quirks.  He really has not bad habits except the fun of occasionally making a run for it just to see you panic.  Just a little Houdini in his spirit to have some fun.  If you are interested in this guy please email us at ccrtennessee@gmail.com Tell us where you live   and what city and state.  PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comAugust 19, 2024, 2:03 pm
