My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

My name is Handsome and I have earned my name very nicely, or so my foster mom tells me!  I am a Yorkie mix that is just a tad on the larger side of Regular Yorkies.  I weigh 23 pounds but I am very young and full of energy and zest for.  life at just 1-2 years of age.  I came as a stray that a couple picked up out in the country and they could not keep me.  They already had dogs of their own and they found this nice rescue group to take me in and get me groomed (I was very matted) and then to neuter me and fully vet me from the ground up.  The groomer even mentioned to the lady who brought me in to be groomed, that I was a very sweet boy.  I really do try to show my appreciation to all the people involved with taking care of me, just how much I appreciate what they are doing for me.  Iam very good with all the other foster dogs in my home right now.  My foster mom says a fenced yard is a MUST and I really need daily exercise and maybe another dog to play with.  I love to play with toys, other dogs and I love to bat my hazel colored eyes at your to try and get special treats and favors.  My eyes seem to get a lot of compliments from all the women I meet.  So on the other side of things, I am crate trained, but not housebroken yet.  I haven’t been in training long enough for that.  I walk nicely on a leash which is important and I will learn the housebreaking rules if I am the ONLY dog that needs to be worked with.  I think my foster mom has a lot on her plate to really focus on me for that.  They say I am a “catch” and that I won’t last long on the adoption site.   If you are even slightly interested, you best better write to Critter Cavalry Rescue right now at ccrnewengland@gmail.com and raise your hand to get their attention!   I am in Tennessee right now and I can ride up to the northeastern states on the transport van any 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.com

More about this rescue

We are a group of dedicated rescue people who want to save as many dogs and cats from the local shelters before they are euthanized. On the average....there are only 1 out of 10 animals that get adopted from a shelter. We are dedicated to helping increase pet adoptions by offering a shelter animal a foster home to go to while awaiting an adoptive family to find them on our Petfinder website. Won't you please adopt a shelter animal? Or won't you please help us foster a shelter animal while we are looking for their perfect home? What a gift you can give a dog or cat by giving them a place to feel safe and secure....a forever home or a foster home. Won't you help us at Critter Companion Rescue give them a chance to have a life?
