If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out an Adoption Questionnaire at  https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/43315/genericYou can learn about the adoption process by visiting:  http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/howtoadopt/.  Dog's Name:  Baby Gouda (GOU0225CHEMD) Estimated Breed:  Pug/ChihuahuaApproximate Age: DOB 01/02/2025  Ready for adoption 2/21Approximate Weight: 3 LBS  Currently Living at:  Foster  Adoption Fee:  $500DOG'S DESCRIPTION: Meet Baby Gouda! Gouda is part of the Cheese Litter of seven (Munster, Mozzarella, Gouda, Parmesan, Cheddar, Swiss and Colby Jack). These sweet babies came from an overcrowded shelter in Chesterfield, South Carolina. The shelter is no place for a tiny puppy, fortunately they have been rescued by K-9 Lifesavers and are ready to find forever homes. Could that be with you? Gouda is your typical sweet and friendly puppy. He is great with people and other dogs. At his young age, Gouda is in his prime for training and socialization. Gouda is ready to find his people for life and in return he promises to shower them with all his sweetness and love. With Gouda, every day is a new adventure filled with joy and companionship. The question isn't why you should adopt Gouda, but rather, why wouldn't you want to bring such a bundle of cuteness into your life? Submit an application today and change his life forever! Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.           Adoption fees cover basic vetting, spay/neuter surgery (at partner vet if not fixed before adoption), rabies, distemper/parvo vaccinations, treatment for worms, heartworm testing, monthly heartworm prevention and monthly flea/tick prevention (while the animal is in our care), and transport costs from high-kill shelter. Please note that on average, K-9 Lifesavers spend significantly more on each dog than their adoption fee. Adoption fee for HW positive dog also covers heartworm treatment at our partner vets. Foster Program:    Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.  For more information on becoming a foster parent, and our Foster Program, visit  http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/foster/  or email our Foster Coordinator at  foster@k-9lifesavers.orgSponsor Me!    Make a  tax-deductible donation  today by visiting us at http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/donate/.

Story
Juno is a national treasure ~ hands down, the best dog. She doesn’t mind changes, adores meeting new people and dogs, will cuddle with anyone, and loves to eat. * She sleeps peacefully (she snores—but it’s the sweetest sound). * She walks beautifully on a leash, does her business outside, and adores car rides. * She snuggles in close, offering warmth and love to everyone she meets. * She even visited hospice patients with her foster family and they melted at the softness of her fur. * She’s almost done with her antibiotics, and soon, her dental will help her breathe easier. Juno was almost lost to a world that didn’t see her worth. Her owner brought her to the vet to be euthanized…because she had diarrhea and snored. That could have been the end of her story, but her incredible vet knew she had more life to live and that a little tummy trouble and some nighttime noises didn’t define her. Knew that Juno deserved love, comfort, and the chance to truly live. Juno is a reminder that every life matters, that love is more powerful than convenience, and that second chances can change everything. Now, she just needs the right person to see her, love her, and promise her that she will never be unwanted again. Fostered in Silver Spring, MD Please apply to adopt at MirisHaven.org

Story
Meet Da Vinci, a lovable, mischievous pup who`s ready to find his forever home! This smart and rambunctious 3 year old Pug mix is house-trained and eager to learn more with the right guidance. He`s got a heart full of sweetness and can`t get enough pets and cuddles. Once he starts snuggling, you won’t want to stop!Da Vinci is a fan of playing fetch, though he`s a bit cheeky and prefers to keep the toys for himself rather than bring them back (hey, it`s all part of his playful charm!). He’s treat-motivated and loves the chance to earn a snack, making him a fantastic candidate for more training. Whether you’re looking for a fun, energetic companion or a dog to bond with over playtime and cuddles, Da Vinci is your guy!

Story
Winifred or Winnie is a sweet girl that was surrendered when her owner could no longer care for her.  Winnie would do well in a home as a single dog or with one that is calmer and not high energy or in her face.  She would also do well with older children as she loves her people and to be part of a family.  She loves to take treats from your hand, snuggle in your lap, and does fantastic on car rides.  She is working on her routine and potty training so she will require a family that will get her into a schedule and work on her this with her. PLEASE READ: If you are interested in meeting and/or adopting, please apply online at www.catdogfriendrescue.com. Please do NOT call or send inquiries via Adopt A Pet or PetFinder as we are a small rescue and cannot handle a large influx of inquiries and phone calls. You can email us at acatsfriendinc@gmail.com if you have questions, but if you would like to be considered for adoption, you must fill out an application. Please note if you are applying for a kitten under six months of age, you must have another friendly kitty in the home or adopt another kitten. Additionally, unless otherwise indicted that this animal is a purebred, all of our animals are rescues and the "breed" selection is a best guess based on their apperance as we have no way of knowing their specific breeds.  Out of state adoptions (outside Virginia/DC/Maryland) do require three years of excellent past or current veterinary references. We look forward to hearing from you!  Adoption Fee includes spay/neuter and microchip insertion. ##2265074##

Story
Well first let’s just say that Pepper is NOT a fru-fru girl that needs to be “pretty in pink”.  This girl is a Boston Terrier/Pit mix puppy who was in a very tough and isolated shelter in West Tennessee and she was the one in a million girl that made it OUT!  She is a lover girl but boy can she keep up with the older and bigger boy dogs in the foster home.  She is a great player all day long and she is tough like a “tomboy”.  She is learning the leash, crate trained and she is working on the housebreaking.  She will forever be your girl that tries the hardest to do everything right.  She is weighing in at 27 pounds and 7 months old and will one day be a 35 pound adult beauty.  We love these Pepper ears and her strong personal determination to hang with the BIG BOYS!  She is the survivor that we saw at the top of the steps in the movie “Rocky”. She has beat some unbelievable odds Some true hurdles that only Pepper and Critter Cavalry Rescue knows about.  If you want to be her Champion Adopter please write to us at ccrnewengland@gmail.com We are happy to show you what a special girl she is. 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 12, 2025, 8:03 am
