Story

Richie ' Sambora ' is what this Border Collie mix puppy should be called because he is so handsome and extra charming. Born around April 1st, 5 months ago from 9/1, his mom was a 40 pound girl with 4 puppies who were all left outside in the harsh heat while their owner went on vacation. No food, no water was left behind. Soon Animal Control was there to take the sweet dogs in to the shelter for relief and care. Richie is 25 pounds and a very special boy. He has very special eye coloring that gives him two different colored eyes that make him absolutely unforgettable. This boy Richie has already figured out that those beautiful eyes have a way of melting hearts. Look out ladies, this handsome boy knows exactly how to turn on the charm and if he played guitar like Sambora does with Bon Jovi, he would be dangerous. But underneath those gorgeous eyes is a sweet puppy who is learning that humans can be trusted and that life can be pretty wonderful. He is almost housebroken, crate training is successful and he is good with all other dogs and cats as well. We expect him to the same weight range as his momma, 40 pounds. He is happy and curious and playful. Working on his leash skills and he has had a great deal of guidance from his foster persons that have helped him the past few weeks. If you would like to adopt this happy young pup please write to Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com Mention where you live. A fence would be an ideal situation for this boy to run free and with total safety to hang outside for hours. 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 31, 2026, 9:49 pm

Story

Lewis (approximately 62 pounds) was transferred to the NHSPCA from an overcrowded shelter in Tennessee. This unforgettable fellow is extremely affectionate, very charming, and looking for someone to love! Lewis' love is very much in-your-face, because despite his size he will literally demand kisses, pets, and luvins because he is certain that he is a lap dog. Physical touch is Lewis' love language! Lewis participated in doggie play groups at his previous shelter, and reportedly does well with other doggos. He keeps a very clean kennel overnight, leading us to believe that he is house-trained. And he ADORES reward-based training, so while he can sometimes be strong on leash, he usually starts to mind his manners when he sees a treat pouch! Come meet Lewis today and fall in love with this silly boy who loves to cuddle!If you'd like to meet Lewis and all his friends at the New Hampshire SPCA, please visit our Adoption Center during our open hours: 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. every day except Wednesdays (closed). Plus, this summer, we will be open until 7:00 p.m. on Thursdays! Have questions? Call (603) 772-2921 ext. 110 or email info@nhspca.org today.

Story

Sabrina (approximately 55 pounds) was transferred to the NHSPCA from an overcrowded shelter in Tennessee. Her owners were forced to give her up when they could no longer afford to care for her. Which is a shame as Sabrina is the total package - friendly, outgoing, and adorable! This girl is dog-, kid- and cat-approved, according to her previous owner. Sabrina LOVES treats and enjoys reward-based training. She keeps a very clean kennel overnight, leading us to believe that she is likely house-trained, and we are told she is crate-trained also. Sabrina is also very dog social; aside from having lived with dogs in her previous home, she also enjoys play time with her canine friends. Sweet Sabrina is known for her happy attitude and her love of giving hugs (and kisses) to her human friends. Oh, and her love of playing with a tennis ball but *not* bringing it back to you, LOL! Come meet Sabrina today - she definitely has a hug waiting for you!If you'd like to meet Sabrina and all her friends at the New Hampshire SPCA, please visit our Adoption Center during our open hours: 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. every day except Wednesdays (closed).

Story

Nova (approximately 42 pounds) was transferred to the NHSPCA from an overcrowded shelter in Tennessee. This 8-month-old beauty has lots of energy and equal amount of love to give. She's spunky, sweet, and loves to play fetch. And just wait until you see her around other dogs - Nova absolutely lights up when she gets play time with her canine friends. Our girl can be a little anxious in new situations, which is why she would probably love a home with a confident canine sibling. Nova was a brave pup for her veterinary exam and learned that squeeze cheese can make a doctor visit less worrisome. She loves snacks, play time, and petting from her human friends. Come meet Nova today & make her dream of a loving home come true!If you'd like to meet Nova and all her friends at the New Hampshire SPCA, please visit our Adoption Center during our open hours: 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. every day except Wednesdays (closed).

Story

Cooper (approximately 55 pounds) was transferred to the NHSPCA from an overcrowded shelter in Tennessee. Volunteer dog walkers have been swooning over this boy since his arrival - he is super sweet, walks well on leash, and is much calmer than you'd expect a dog of his age to be. Of course, Cooper can throw down and play with the best of them - he loves to get silly with his humans, with other dogs, and with toys, and his joy in play time is unmatched. Cooper LOVES snacks and responds very well to reward-based training - he is very smart and responsive, especially when he sees the treat pouch, LOL! He had a great time playing with other dogs at his previous shelter and he has been friendly towards the other dogs he has encountered here. With his happy smile, movie-star good-looks, and well-mannered charm, Cooper is quite the dreamboat - come down & meet him today!If you'd like to meet Cooper and all his friends at the New Hampshire SPCA, please visit our Adoption Center during our open hours: 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. every day except Wednesdays (closed).
