Story
Gru is a little guy with a big personality! He is very loving and likes to cuddle. He was my parents dog for about 4 years and I've had him with me for the last five years. I am relocating to Florida and I am unable to take him with me on this move and I am looking for a good home for him. He enjoys going on walks and loves to play outside. He is also very good in the car and I have taken him on long road trips and he makes himself comfortable where ever he is so he is really good to travel with. He has been an amazing dog for me and I hope that he will bring a lot of joy to you.

Story
*** AVAILABLE ON-SITE ONLY FRIDAYS AND SATURDAYS *** Caydo is an old soul with a little pep in his step—truly one in a million. This charming Chihuahua seems to be both potty trained and crate trained when kept on a schedule, and he gets along well with other dogs. He’s also been sweet and gentle with a young child, showing just how adaptable and kind he can be. Caydo enjoys his walks and does great on a leash, especially when he gets the chance to explore the world through all the wonderful scents along the way. One of his most endearing quirks is his beloved pink blankie—he loves to burrow underneath it and keep it close, whether he’s settling in for the night or relaxing during the day. His favorite time of day is right after his morning potty break, when he’ll snuggle up close and make the softest, most adorable little contented sounds. It’s a special moment that perfectly captures just how loving and sweet he is. Caydo is a truly special little companion, and whoever welcomes him home will be very lucky—he won’t be available for long!

Story
Hi! I`m Briar, a bubbly Chihuahua mixed puppy full of love and energy. I’m currently around 9 weeks old and am the biggest of my litter at just 4 1/2 pounds. I have shiny black fur with unique patches of grey and tan around my neck and back. I can be a little shy at first but I warm up quickly. I adore being pampered and I just can`t get enough of sweet kisses and snuggles. I’m currently using puppy pads inside and I’m great at hitting my mark. If you`re looking for a loyal friend who will always be there to cheer you up and keep you company, I`m your pup! Adopting me means endless love and joy, as I promise to be your devoted companion. Briar has been vaccinated and microchipped. He is too young to neuter but that is included with the adoption. For the first steps of adoption submit an application here: https://humanesocietyofwilkes.org/adopt/application. For questions you can email fireball7705@yahoo.com

Story
  “Lightning Strikes Twice…Right Into Your Heart” At just 12 weeks old and a tiny 6 pounds, Flash is already living up to his name—zipping, zooming, and stealing hearts in record time. One minute he’s playfully prancing across the room, the next he’s curled up close, melting into you like he’s always belonged there.       This little Chihuahua boy is full of curiosity and charm. He’s learning all the important puppy things—crate training, a bathroom routine, and even sneaking in some cozy nights sleeping right by your side. Like any baby, he’s still figuring it all out, but his sweet nature makes every step of the journey a joy.   Flash’s story started in a cardboard box outside a hardware store in a small Tennessee town.  A elderly man was handing out puppies lije Halloween candy.  Three were left.  Thanks to a kind rescue couple, 3 puppies went home with them and all 3 are in loving foster homes and looking for the perfect future family. Flash is now safe, adored by his foster family but seeking a forever family who will treasure him.   Flash is expected to stay under 15 pounds and will likely grow into those signature Chihuahua “radar ears” to match his big personality.  He may be small, but his love is anything but.   Flash will be ready to travel from Nashville on April 10th. If you’re ready for a little spark of joy in your life, this tiny bolt of love is waiting for you.  email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com    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 29, 2026, 9:55 pm

Story
*** AVAILABLE ON-SITE FRIDAYS AND SATURDAYS *** Dobby is my name and that’s because I’m as adorable looking as that elf or whatever from Harry Potter. I love people of all ages and dogs of all sizes. I have two in my foster home that I absolutely love to play with. My favorite place is on the sofa next to my human along with my stuffy toys which just so you know I have an Emotional Support Stuffed Cookie. I am what you would call a Velcro puppy. I like to be next to my human and I watch where they’re going. I’m a good little protector and will definitely warn you if a strange noise occurs. But for the most part, I don’t bark. I am doing very well with potty training at my foster home and I’ve only had a couple of accidents. I sleep through the night and don’t have any in my crate but during the day sometimes it can be hard to hold it while my person is at work and I am in my crate. But I’m getting better! I get a little nervous around new experiences and things much bigger than me and I might be shy when I meet a new person, but within a matter of moments, I am in their lap, wiggling my little body and giving kisses. When it comes to training, I am very eager to please, especially if you have a treat. I am still learning the word sit, but I have mastered the art of going up the stairs. Going back down them is a little tricky for me because my legs are so short! Speaking of being small, I am a little dog and I don’t think I’m going to grow very much bigger. You could almost fit me in your pocket! If you would like to meet me, please make an appointment at Saving Grace. I am looking for applications for my furever home. Are you my new family?
