Story

Rex is one of those happy go lucky, loveable German Shepherds that is a rare offering in the rescue world. A two year old, 75 pound young dog that is a victim of divorce. Like children, he is having to adjust to a new lifestyle and he must be rehomed due to his dad moving in with parents who are already at their limit for dogs. Everyone is heartbroken. Rex loves everyone and is good with cats, other dogs and adores meeting new people. He is housebroken, crate trained and not a nervous nelly like some Shepherds can be. He is still growing and can stand to add a few more muscular pounds as he becomes a more mature adult dog. Broken hearted is what his owner will be when he goes but Critter Cavalry Rescue has promised to find the perfect Shepherd savvy home for him with a fenced yard, and someone with the time and stability to give this boy all he deserves in life. Rex is an eager and easy student to train to be a family’s “everything” dog. Please know this breed before asking to adopt. They are dogs that cannot be ignored and left alone for 10 hours a day. They love challenges that are both mental and physical. Rex is a love of a dog, with no aggressive tendencies at all but he needs to know boundaries and you MUST BE A LEADER to him. He will pace at first in a new environment because that is what GSD breeds do. Change is tough on their intelligent heart and soul. He is a true treasure for his breed. If interested, please contact us at ccrtennessee@gmail.com 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.

Story

Meet Millie May! Quick Facts: Breed: German Shepherd mix Estimated Birthday: 12/11/2022 Size: roughly 80lbs --===================================== Meet Millie May, the girl who has it all - funny, friendly, athletic, curious, and smart! (They do say that variety is the spice of life.) Millie May is a happy, healthy adult dog who loves to play, explore, and make new human friends. Whether it's playing with toys or finding the best spot for a tummy rub, Millie May is always game. She is the ultimate boating buddy and could spend HOURS out on the boat. She loves water and would make the perfect lake dog. If you're looking for a fun-loving, curious, and cuddly companion, look no further - Millie May is the girl for you! Here's to many happy adventures together! Millie May loves a good car ride, chewing on bones & has recently discovered the art of swimming. She is a goofy girl, but maintains her sweet nature while proving how incredibly smart she is through training! She is very food motivated & we encourage her adoptive family to utilize this to invest in obedience training. She does know "sit", "down" & is working on "stay". Millie May has done well with the cat in the home and doesn't pay him any attention. She has not resided with a child, but is a still a big puppy at heart with lots of energy to burn. She sometimes knocks things over & sometimes her feet forget how to feet, and that may include bulldozing children who are less on the durable side. Millie May would do best in a home as an only dog. Millie May is crate trained and house trained.

Story

Adoption Application: bit.ly/C2CND_App Quick Facts Breed: German Shepherd mix Age: 3 years old Size: Currently 50#, but slightly underweight - could stand to gain 5-10#. House-Trained & Crate trained -===== Poco, a mixed breed boy who landed himself in the pound when he was seized from his ”home”. Now his home was the local pound and he was on death row which means he could be killed at any moment likely due to lack of space. (Let me remind you this is NOT the fault of the shelter workers, or volunteers - this is the fault of the trash that treated him like he was nothing more than worthless property). Poco was severely neglected and nearly starved to death. He weighed under 30 pounds when he first entered the system, he was skin and bones. Poco is visually impaired but we don’t know to what extent he can see and we don’t know what caused the issues with his eyes. We brought him into our rescue reassuring him that he is safe now and we will find him the most wonderful family who will treat him like a king. We could tell he was leary and almost a little shut down but we are here to help him overcome any obstacles. -Poco is visually impaired. Do not know extent. - He is learning the outdoors in a fenced yard. He requires a fenced in yard in his forever home due to his visual impairments. -He is currently learning steps and loves to be outside in the sun with his person. -We are currently in the process of introducing to different dogs and is doing great so far! -He does walk on a leash, the use of a halter with a grab handle is useful. Due to his vision impairment the handle halter helps to guide him safely. -He just needs sufficient time to settle into new surroundings. -He has not been tested with Cats. - Due to his previous life, he would do best eating separately as he may steal other dogs food. -He is a gentle soul that simply needs time to bloom. But he is worth every effort! Before emailing- please read: - Yes, this dog is available for adoption - The adoption fee for Poco is $265 - Apply at c2cnd.org - The adoption fee covers appropriate shots, microchipping, heartworm testing, deworming, spay/neuter, and any other medical expenses while in our care. - Our application process includes: a virtual home visit, veterinary record check (please call vet to release current/previous pet records), and a rent check (to make sure pets/breeds are welcomed). Please allow 5-7 business days to finalize the application process. - Local adopters only. Due to us finalizing adoptions at adopter's home, we limit our adoptions to local families in the greater Charlotte area. - If you have any additional questions, email us at dogs@c2cnd.org and we will respond as soon as possible!

This Gentleman is T Bone! He is a Super smart guy who is Young at Heart and Spirit! He is a spunky Guy who is looking for his new family or person. Sadly, His human Dad passed away recently and now he is looking for his new family or person. T Bone is now by himself in an outdoor pen being cared for by his Dad's friends who have four Dogs of their own and feel that he deserves a family or person of his very own. T Bone is a healthy 9 yr. young neutered German Shepherd. Don't let his age fool you! He is a Happy Guy who loves to go for walks and walks well on leash. If you are looking for a walking or hiking buddy or a canine friend to share your farm or land, T Bone may just be your guy! He'd love a home where he can be your one and only. A fenced in yard or property where he can run and explore would be on the top of his bucket list. He is not yet house trained but is very smart and eager to learn. We are asking a rehoming fee to help insure he is adopted into a great home.

Story

Hades is a house trained silly boy. He knows his commands well and loves to play with his red egg. He is very protective of his loved ones. He still needs work with his socialization but loves to be outside and walk in the woods. He also loves bubbles. He does good with people, he will bark when he is nervous but when approached softy he can calm down. When not beyond his threshold he is ok with dogs at a distance. He likes being in the kitchen and pawing for food but he knows better than to get on the counter. He is very playful and loving no doubt. He is about to become one year on Jan 21st. He will bark when he hears an unsual noise but he does stop. Hades was acquired as a puppy at 10 weeks from a family that had a litter. Currently I am faced with the sad decision of rehoming him because of costs. The ideal home for him would be wide space, a fenced big backyard and a cozy space for him to rest inside the home. Where he can get all the love & attention he deserves.

Story

Scooter is a very sweet boy, good with children and cats. He does not react to deer, golf carts, walkers, bikers, or small dogs when out walking, but does show reactivity with large dogs by barking and pulling. In the home, he is so lovely, calm, and friendly. He is a very laid back and relaxed dog. He is extremely responsive with treats on walks and his reactivity is easily managed with the use of food rewards. He still needs a bit of distance from larger dogs (20-30 feet) to be able to stay calm, but has done really well when this strategy is used. He has worked with a trainer and would benefit continuation to build social confidence. Scooter becomes very attached to his family. He loves with his whole heart! He has done fine with little dogs. Scooter would love a foster family, foster to adopt or a forever home. If interested, you can complete our application at safeanimalhaven.orgNovember 5, 2024, 12:12 am
