Story
  If you are in search of a loving, yet active little dog, then you have found just the right girl!  Bonnie is a young, one year old, 18 pound, Jack Russell who is spunky and happy and oh so cuddly.  She is the total package of smart, quick to learn, and easy to love.  Bonnie is a little shy when you first meet her, but we guarantee she will warm up fast. She loves to play with other dogs and pull out all the toys at the foster home. And what a cuddle bug she is who longs to be someone’s very special little girl.  She is still working on her house training, but is crate trained for short periods.  No, 8 hour long crate time will work for her.  As you can imagine with an active dog, a fenced in yard would work best.  Bonnie would also love to have her new family home most of the time because she loves her people.  We are recommending that she be with an active family as she loves to see new sights and is ready for travel adventures and car rides.  She is on the go and ready to love you!  Bonnie is your girl if you are checking all her boxes.  Please write to ccrtennessee@gmail.com if you are interested.  Please mention where you live:  city and state.  She is currently in Nashville, Tn with Critter Cavalry Rescue and we transport to the northeast on weekend.       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.comFebruary 26, 2025, 8:42 pm

Story
  When you love the Jack Russell breed of dog then you try to find that pure love to adopt.  Well Clyde is a very sweet dog but yet he is the shy type that will be oh so loving of a boy that will make you feel like you the most special person in the world.  He is just a year old and 17 pounds and he loves to play with toys that squeak and crunch. He is an active Jack Russell breed that needs a fenced in yard so he can run around and play with others safely. When it comes to cuddles….we all love that with our dogs, Clyde gives you the best cuddles that results when you “sit” he wants to be in your lap.  We will admit that he is not totally house trained and so that is a work in progress. He is crate trained as long as not being left for long hours cause of his age.   He walks on a leash as amateur but worked with it. He loves to go for long walks and see new things.   When it comes to feeling secure with a family, he is Ok with children who are respectable and who want to give him gentle and loving hugs. The Jack Russell breed is an active and vibrant one of colorful moods and playful antics.  They can be loving and snuggly and then zooming around the backyard with the energy that you wish you still had in your body.  They are invigorating and challenging to kind of up your anty so to speak.  They can help  you be more determined every day to be more focused and productive.   We love the active dogs that bring a zest to the pace of life and an intelligence that will keep you thinking great thoughts and making great strides in life.  If you are interested in Clyde the Slyde… please email at ccrtennessee@gmail.com and let us know where you live and a little more about yourself and why a JRT like Clyde is right up your alley!   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.comMarch 14, 2025, 8:28 pm

Story
Meet Luna !! Very sweet and low-key girl that is looking for a lap to sit on. Despite her breed she is not extremely active. She was adopted back in 2021 and sadly her adopter has some significant life circumstances preventing her from giving Luna the life she deserves. I can tell you Luna has been loved so much in her first home. She is ready to share that love with her new family. Luna is an approx 7 year old female Jack Russell mix. She currently weights 10 pounds and is full grown. She is already spayed, microchipped and up to date on her vaccines. She is heartworm negative. She was a bit difficult for the vet as she has some trust issues with strangers trying to restrain her. She is a very sweet and loving dog once she has a day or two to trust you. She is fearful at first and needs some space. After that she is very good about things. She would love a home that is not gone as often but has been able to handle a foster home where the family works a full day. Just as long as she gets lots of love and attention when you get home. Luna has done okay with smaller male dogs but really doesn’t care much for doggie friends. She is fostered with a male dog her size and does well but doesn’t really want much to do with him. Smaller male dogs that leave her alone would be the best match or a home without other dogs. She does not do well with female dogs. She has lived with cats in the past and done fine. ***The dog in the photos with her is Juno. We also took her back in to rescue. They have lived together however Luna is not always nice to Juno so they aren’t the happiest together*** She would do best in an adult home. She has never lived with kids and really doesn’t like a high energy household. She is fun and playful if you want to take her to do stuff but really likes to just lounge around on the couch with her family. We don’t think she would do the best with young children. Possibly teens that can leave her alone when she isn’t interested in being messed with. We were told she has some anxiety when left home alone and not crated. She has so far done really well crated at her foster home. She has also done great left out in the house to roam all night while her foster family sleeps. She will pull things through the crate and rip them up if she can reach them. Luna does decent on the leash when she is not scared. If she is scared, she will try to stop walking or pull away. She is fine on car rides. She is somewhat potty trained. She has been doing really well using puppy pads inside. She has not wanted to potty on the leash outside but may do better with a fenced yard. She has only had two accidents not on the puppy pads since she arrived and those were on the first day. She has had no trouble sharing food, treats or toys with other dogs or humans. She likes to sit on the couch and watch everything. You need to take it slow with her at first. She can get scared easily and try to bite for a day or two if you push her. After that she will love you and be comfortable with you. She does prefer women but is currently fostered with a male and adjusted to him quicker than we expected. Luna is going to make the right family very happy. She would love a low key home that would give her all the attention. She would prefer no other dogs or kids but may do okay with the right dog and the right age/temperament of kids. She really is a sweet girl that is ready to settle down in her forever home. Vet and home checks required. Located in Hampton VA. (She will need to be adopted within a 2 hour drive radius) ‼️Please message VillageDogResource@gmail.com directly with questions or to get an application.‼️
