Story

Meet very handsome Apollo! 6 year old Apollo is a Jack Russell/Chihuahua mix looking for his furever home. He is very energetic and will be his best within an active family with older children. He loves cuddling with his cat friends (or just cuddling in general), going for long walks, and curling up on someone's lap on the couch at the end of the day. He would do best in a home without other dogs since he's pretty much alpha. He is UTD on shots, HW negative, microchipped, and takes Heartgard monthly. When you need that special someone to share your day with Apollo/CP is the right guy for you!!!

Story

Hello. My name is Chyanne. I am a seven year oldish male little mix dog. I’m not really sure what kind I am, I’m just cute, I know that. Let me tell you my story. I lived in a single wide trailer with another little dog and my owner that is in her 80’s. She went into the nursing home because she is not able to take care of us or herself. I am generally a happy little guy and I am super smart. Like anyone I have faults. I’m stubborn and sometimes if I’m scared i want to nip sometimes so if you have some patience I’m just perfect for you. I have a little boo boo on my nose. I am learning kennel training and I try to open the door with my nose. It’s getting better. I’m learning my nose won’t open it. I had to learn not using the potty in the house. I have done well with that. Where I am living right now gets up a 6 am to me ruffing at the door to go out and potty. I think it’s a fair trade! I don’t potty in the house, they get up early! I am super friendly and like other animals of all kinds! I need a forever home.

Chico~

Chihuahua

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Chico seems to be an “old soul” and likes attention once he likes you. He doesn’t seem to like younger people and still refuses to come to my son. He does however love all older people and comes straight up to them. He does let me and my dad pick him up. Sometimes when he’s in a comfortable spot he will growl if you try to move him though. He is still a cuddle buddy though as you can see! He will need someone with patience and no kids in the house. If he growls leave him be!Here’s a pupdate on Chico…he’s settled in to his foster home quite nicely. He is the quinticential lap dog. Lots of cuddling and loads of energy. Doing great on walks. Housebroken. Loves sleeping in mom’s bed at night. I crate him for a few hours a day when I go to work because he’s not always nice to the other dogs in the house. This guy is a growler…at dogs and at humans if you try to pick him up or move him quickly. He lets you know whem he’s not sure what you’re doing Is ok. He hasn’t bitten anyone or even nipped. We back off and give him plenty of space as soon as we hear the growl.He would do well in a house as an only dog with experienced dog owners…dont know if I would trust him with kids…simply because they might not know when enough is enough. He’s also skeptical of men. Regardless…he’s a sweet little guy and we’re really enjoying him.Chico’s personality is really starting to come through. I believe he’s a Chiweenie…long narrow body, always on the move, bouncy gait and a bark too big for his little body. He does have some bad behavior that we are working on…he’s already very possessive of me and snaps and growls at my dogs when they get close to me. We are working on boundaries and behavior. He hasn’t shown any aggression towards humans, just the other dogs in the house. He seems to be a quick learner and hopefully with time and consistency the behavior will subside. Overall we’re really enjoying him.Well someone is a lap dog! Chico is quite the snuggle bug!! First night here and he’s already making himself at home. No accidents, used a pee pad last night and went out first thing in the morning. So far so good.Just sprang Chico from boarding…what a sweet little boy…he’s getting braver by the minute…slow and steady wins the trust!Chico is in need of a foster or adopter! He’s a tiny little guy about 5 pounds! He’s super scared and shy so he will need someone to be patient with him while he learns to trust you! If you want a dog, you can scoop up and cuddle right away he is not going to be the one for you. He takes time to warm up! Chico is a little chi that needs a home with some structure. He has been given too much authority in his current home and sets the rules on who can and cannot come it. Easy fix if with positive training and a little time. Perfect time of year to do this tooApply online or email russellrescuetn@gmail.com if already approvedAvailable dogs are met by pre-approved adopters ONLY after a match is made.

Chihuahua

Male, Senior

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

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 ccrtennessee@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.

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.

Story

Rusty is a handsome petite little 10 lb 1-year-old Chihuahua mix that was taken from an abusive family using a 2x4 to correct him when he was not doing what they wanted. All he was doing was trying to get attention for some love and affection that they did not have to give him. So he was punished in a physical and abusive way. Despite all of this this little guy bounce back with expectations from the foster mom who rescued him. His expectations were for her to love him like he had never been loved before and that is what he has been getting. This little guy is housebroken friendly with other dogs and cats as well. He is demonstrating a little bit of a back-end sway that we've had x-rayed and his spinal L2 has a slight deformity and has created this special little walk. Seems that he was born with this slight deformity. It doesn't stop him from being active or in any pain. This little guy needs a home to call his own and we suggest that he not be crated for 9 hours since he will protest loudly. He's great on walks and running around with other bigger dogs to play with. If you were interested in this darling boy please write to Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com. mention what city and state that you live in since we transport northward and post our dogs and cats in 10 states outside of Tennessee where he currently is fostered ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.

Story

My name is Princess Poppy and I am looking for a great home that can let me run and play and snuggle and grow up to be a 15-20 pound adorable Chiweenie girl. I currently weigh 5 pounds. I was born the first of April to a wonderful momma named Gina. She is a Chiweenie herself and she came from an overcrowded home with lots of dogs who were not spayed or neutered. My litter of 8 and Momma Gina were taken by Critter Cavalry Rescue from the small town shelter that we landed in. I have been well taken care of and I am so much fun and adorable kisses await you. I am ready to go to a new home on 7/12 and I hope that Critter Cavalry Rescue finds me the perfect active family and maybe some children too for me to love on.

Story

Hi everyone! Critter Calvary is looking for a quiet, adult oriented home for this precious little girl we call Teacup Penny. She is 4 years old and is a 6 lb Teacup Chihuahua who was raised with her family since she was a puppy. Just this past year she has made her desire known that she is not a fan of the very young children that she lives with. She wants a calmer environment and wants her own personal mom that she doesn't have to share with young human children. Penny is a delightful girl who likes cats, other dogs and older kids, and of course all adults. She has been spoiled rotten and she definitely believes she's a Princess. She knows she is pretty and has a wonderful wardrobe to show for it. Her mom adores her but knows that her young children and Penny together, do not make a harmonious home environment. If you would love to make Penny your very own, and can give her the peaceful lifestyle where she can be the Princess in your castle, please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.
