Story
Chevy would love to be the center of someone’s universe and he definitely deserves it! This handsome guy is a 7 year old border collie/ lab mix with a lot of energy! Unfortunately, he was never exercised in his previous home and when a baby was added to the mix, he was no longer given the amount of affection that he once had. Chevy would do best in a home without other dogs. He walks nicely with other dogs when introduced properly, but could benefit from additional training. It is unknown how he is with cats, but because of his interest in other small critters we think it would be best not to risk it. He’s a sweet boy who loves to play ball and go for long walks. Because of his size and energy, an adult only home or home with older children would be best. Chevy has been in a boarding facility for 4 months and is desperately hoping to find a loving home soon! He barks for a few minutes when being left alone, so a single family home is needed.

Story
Meet our rare and beautiful Jolene, a stunning 3-year-old, 35-pound Red Merle Border Collie with a heart full of joy and a personality that will melt the heart as well! Jolene is playful, friendly, and always eager to greet her favorite people with a low, charming howl. She’s a social butterfly who loves children, adores cuddles, and thrives in the company of other dogs and even cats.This intelligent girl enjoys playing ball and is incredibly responsive to commands. She knows how to sit, stay, come, and heel, and she excels on a leash with the guidance of a strong leader—walking right at your side when told to 'heel.' True to her Border Collie nature, Jolene is a quick learner who seems to understand what you’re thinking before you even say it! While Jolene was house-trained as a puppy, she’s spent most of her recent time outdoors on a farm. She would thrive in a home with a fenced yard but is not suited for a home with chickens or livestock she is tempted to chase.  Her vibrant energy, loyal disposition, and affectionate nature make her the perfect companion for an active family who is ready to give her all the love and attention she deserves.  N We would like to know if a responding and adoptive family has any hurting breed experience in owning a dog. They are uniquely intelligent and training sensitive dogs.  Ready to bring Jolene home? Email us at ccrnewengland@gmail.com to request an adoption application. Let’s find this amazing girl her forever family! PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.November 18, 2024, 7:24 pm

Story
Mia is a 3 year old purebred Border Collie that was brought over to the United States from Colombia in June 2021. She has a brown and white coat and is more on the heavy side around 60 lbs. She is great with people and kids, though she can be territorial with other dogs. Our family was able to take care of her until our father passed away suddenly in April 2023. Since then, we have moved to a significantly smaller house and changed our work scheduled, making it difficult to care for her and our other two dogs. We would like her to go to a home that has plenty of outdoor space and a dog-loving family that wants a companion that constantly wants to be cuddled.

I’m very impressed with him being an “old soul”, for being so young. He is a sweetheart to the fullest. He has a really soft, smooth, shiny coat. It’s a little longer than it looks. Definitely soft and definitely shiny. There is a Facebook page where potential doctors can see the dogs that I foster in My Home. I will put a link at the end of this section. Toby is located in Harrison Arkansas with Ozark Homeward Bound animal rescue. He would be transported to your location via the rescue network transport.

Story
Adoptable in: MAGood with dogs: Yes, with proper introsGood with cats: UnknownGood with kids: Yes, 13+Crate trained: YesHouse trained: YesGrizzly James is a really good boy who loves to snuggle and hang out with his humans. In fact, he thinks he is a lapdog despite his size!Grizzly James has yet to meet a toy he doesn’t like, but he is an expert at surgically deconstructing stuffed toys, so he is better suited for tougher toys like bones, Kongs, rubber rings, etc. When he is not entertaining himself with toys he likes to make very silly noises to get your attention and remind you that he is nearby in case you have the sudden urge to give him belly rubs.Grizzly James is extremely smart and considers himself to be a mischievous mastermind. His fosters have noted he sometimes buries his food bowl under his blanket to try and fool his humans into thinking he hasn’t received dinner yet and should be fed again. He is a lovable goofball and is looking for someone that will enjoy his antics!Grizzly James is crate trained and house trained. He also knows ‘sit’, ‘stay’, and is currently working on mastering ‘down’. He loves car rides and will try to rest his snoot on your shoulder despite being in the backseat and buckled into his car harness.Grizzly James has shown lots of improvement when walking on a leash over the last few months. He is not a ‘puller’, but will try to chase after cars (or those pesky squirrels) from time to time and uses all his body weight to lunge into the move. He is deceptively strong for such a compact fellow, so a firm hand on the leash is a must when waddling him about town. His current foster walks him on a transitional lead and has found this to be a key to success when walking him on a leash.Grizzly James is so excited to find his forever family!Please Note: All dogs currently available for adoption are posted on our website. If you cannot find a particular dog on our website, he/she may be on a temporary foster hold. All dogs are otherwise posted until they are officially adopted. This dog may have other interested adopters in line. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application.November 5, 2024, 1:17 am

He can’t get enough of the little ones. He’d never turn down a bone or treat and watching him get a case of the zoomies is quite the treat.Pep seriously loves kids! He’s completely content just sitting in their laps, hugging them, but is always up for play, never displaying any aggression. He also plays well with dogs, cats, and is chicken-friendly. He’s an all-around great companion!Pep was a little shy when he arrived in foster care. He warmed up quickly, but it’s possible he could regress a little during transport. However, he will adapt to his new surroundings with a little bit of patience and time. His leash skills are good but he would benefit from a little more training. He’s crate-trained and almost 100% house-trained.Pep is ready to show his forever family all the love he has to give!Please Note: All dogs currently available for adoption are posted on our website.
