Story
Introverted homebody seeking introverted homebody. The outside world can be scary. I prefer the comfort of home where I can sit and snuggle with my person. Who is my person you ask? My perfect person is kind, patient, and preferably a woman, sorry fellas I am a ladies’ man. My foster mom tries really hard to take me out to stores and being around other people but that is a bit too chaotic for me. I like my house. I also really love to play with other dogs! I love to be chased and play, in my own fenced in yard, at my house. Did I mention I really like my home? Do you have a home with a fenced in yard? Well, if you do, I would love to be your partner. Ideal home for Zane · Slow patient interactions · Fenced in Yard Required · Calm household without too much noise or commotion · Another dog friend to play with Adoption fee is $450 If you do not hear from us within 7 days please email passion4petsrescue@gmail.com

Story
Jack and Jill are 2 of the sweetest babies. They are approximately 1.5 years old and Jill weighs 12 lbs and Jack weighs 8 lbs, they are not getting any bigger. These 2 have not had an easy life. They did have a home at one point, but the owners moved out and left them in their yard, in a wire crate, alone. No food. No water. The neighbors heard them and due to laws, could not take them, but animal control wasn’t responding so they snuck them food and water over the course of a few days. A week went by, and still, nobody came for them. They lived in a wire crate for a week before animal control came. Thankfully, they let us take them into our care, where they have been. The owners never came back. Jack and Jill have since been fully vetted and are ready for their forever homes. They each have their own personality and we’re not sure if we want to split them up or not, ideally we’d love to adopt them together. Jack is a little more timid than Jill – he is the smaller one (light tan) and he’s unsure of who to trust. Jill is more friendly and will come to anyone and give lots of kisses within minutes. Jack can warm up to you with patience (and a little time, not much!). In a matter of days he was sleeping in the fosters bed, cuddling right up. They are both cuddle bugs and love to be next to you. They are house trained. They have met kitties and other dogs, and they don’t mind either of them (you’ll see one of our kitties in the video going up to them). An ideal home for them would be one that is a little quieter and more relaxed. These 2 are not hyper nor do they need a lot of activity. They don’t mind walks around the neighborhood. We’re not sure how they do with children but based on how they’ve been, we do not recommend young children. Jack and Jill would make fabulous companions for the perfect household. Jack and Jill are spayed/neutered, heart worm negative, current on preventions, microchipped, and will receive a health certificate prior to adoption from a vet giving them a clean bill of health. To apply to adopt Jack or Jill please fill out an application at: www.pawsitive-impact-animal-rescue.org

Story
Meet Parker!  This precious little guy is 4 years old and about 12 lbs.  Evidently Parker did not have a very good life prior to joining Critter Cavalry.  We think he was bullied by another dog.  He is a 'sit on the sidelines and watch' kinda guy who doesn't really want to play with anyone.  He doesn't mind the other dogs and definitely is not mean.  He would just rather be with people.  Parker is super sweet and loves people.  He just wants to be where his foster mom is.  Parker would be a wonderful companion for someone that just wants one dog and who would like a dog they can take places.  He would love that and would love to be friends with all your friends.  He is just precious and very friendly.  He gentlY smells you to make sure you are OK and then he is good.  He was smiling during his photo shoot and seemed to enjoy all the attention.  If you are looking for a loyal companion then you have found him in Parker.  Parker is doggie door trained, neutered, current on all shots, heartworm negative and microchipped.  To be considered for Parker's forever family and to request an application please contact Vivienne at viviennejames@comcast.net.  APPROVED APPLICATION AND ADOOPTION FEE REQUIRED.  (Parker is currently in Tennessee and can be transported north upon adoption.)November 4, 2024, 11:48 pm

Story
Timmy is a 5 1/2 year old Chihuahua mix who weighs 14 lbs.  He and his buddy Ebony were surrendered to a rural middle Tennessee shelter in July.  He didn't understand why this happened to them and was really scared at first.  He took him a little while to settle in and he has now blossomed into a wonderful, happy and friendly little guy.  Timmy gets along well with other dogs both his size and larger.  He loves to hang out in his foster mom's fenced in yard and has a good time playing with his foster brothers and sisters.  They also have a large fenced in field where everyone goes for daily exercise.  Timmy just loves it.  He would do best in a home with another dog who will be his buddy.  He would not do well as an only dog.  Timmy also loves people.  He likes being with his foster mom and is always up for a movie or ballgame.  He would love to snuggle with you at night as well.  Timmy would make a great addition to the right home.  He is a sweet little guy.  Timmy is housebroken, doggie door trained and he can walk on a leash.  He has been neutered and is current on all his shots, heartworm negative, on monthly preventative and microchipped.  To be considered for Timmy's forever family and to request an application please contact Vivienne at viviennejames@comcast.net.  APPROVED APPLICATION AND ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.  (Timmy is currently in Tennessee and can be transported north upon adoption.)November 4, 2024, 11:48 pm
