Story
Sandee was adopted from our shelter ten years ago and was found a stray recently and brought into our shelter. Sandee spent her stray hold with us and she`s became a staff favorite since entering the building. Sandee has an unknown neurological disorder that hinder her mobility. You many notice she has a funny walk, however that doesn`t stop her from running around. Sandee can not go into a home with any children or other animals in her forever home. She requires a person that has a lot of free time that can give her a lot of attention as she wants to be at the center of attention. Adopters will be required to sign a medical disclosure in regards to her preexisting condition

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
Meet Curious Puppy Coco.  This beautiful brindle boy is only 17 weeks old and 7 lbs.  Just look at that face.  It definitely tells you that this curious little guy will be in the middle of everything.  This little boy is all legs.  You just want to smile when you look at him.  He is at that awkward stage in life with legs and feet going every where.  Coco is a very sweet boy.  He is super friendly and does not meet a stranger.  He happily goes up to everyone to be petted.  Coco loves other dogs and has a big time playing with his foster brothers.  He is a bit of a pest to the older dogs though as he always wants to play.  Coco would love to have another young brother or sister to play with.  He definitely needs a companion to keep him busy.  When Coco does settle down he is a great little cuddle boy and will curl up in your lap or beside you to go to sleep.  This little guy is doggie door and crate trained.  He walks OK on a leash but does need some additional training.  He is very smart though and catches on quickly.  He will be an excellent addition to the right family.  Coco is neutered, current on all shots and microchipped.  To be considered for his forever family and to request an application please contact Vivienne at viviennejames@comcast.net.  APPROVED APPLICATION AND ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.  (Coco is currently in Tennessee and can be transported north upon adoption.)November 18, 2024, 11:35 am

Story
Anna is a 9 year old, 10lb adorable Chug (chihuahua/pug mix) who has endured some big human turmoil recently and ended up in a Middle Tennessee shelter. Not much is known of her history, but her underweight condition indicates at least some neglect took place. A really devoted foster mom for critter.Cavalry turquoise noticed her profile in the shelter and realize that being a senior she might not be chosen very easily by the general public.  This young foster woman is making sure that Anna is gaining much needed weight slowly.  She’s starting to put on weight and enjoys her meal times-with the occasional treat of whipped cream. While she is timid at first and a little wary of quick movements, it doesn’t take long for her to warm up and become your best snuggle buddy. Anna has some spunk and can run up stairs as fast as any puppy. She seems to be good with other dogs and initiates playing, though she doesn’t know what to do with toys. She does well on a leash and going outside. She is catching on to potty training (another example of her neglected past) and we are wanting someone who works from home or is retired as she does exhibit some separation anxiety in her first week with us.  She has found the cozy comforts of warm blankets and fluffy pillows and burrows underneath.  Anna has lots of love to give and deserves  a family to spoil her.   Please email ccrtennessee@gmail.com if you are interested.  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.comDecember 13, 2024, 11:49 am

Story
This little button is Glitter! She came to us from one of our local partners and is looking for her forever home. Glitter is a bit timid and doesn`t like really fast movements so we are requiring that children in the home be 6 or older. Glitter does also require a lot of dental work so we want adopters to keep in mind that her cost of adoption may be higher than others due to this. If you have any questions about this sweet Chihuahua please ask a kennel technician.

Story
This boy is a gem! He's absolutely perfect, a real turnkey dog. Fostered in Vero Beach, FL, small enough to fit easily into a bag for in-cabin flying. Enrique is a 7 year old, 7 lb male Chihuahua. He’s tiny but mighty, and a lil bit stocky. This super sweet social butterfly boy is an easy keeper and steals the heart of everyone he meets Enrique gets along with dogs of all sizes, cats and has never met a stranger. He is playful and affectionate with other dogs and would enjoy a canine companion but people are his PASSION! We have not seen him around children so perhaps older children would be best with his tiny size. His favorite place is in your lap or snuggled up in your neck. Enrique is fully vetted, even bloodwork and a dental with 15 teeth removed, ouch. Enrique is great in the car and on a leash. He is truly a dog that you can easily take anywhere and even housetrained. He does need help getting into the bed so will bark to let you know he wants up. Snuggling, snoozing and snacking are Rique’s favorite pastimes, and he loves a little play time. He is content to stay in bed or explore the town. Enrique is fostered in Vero Beach, and his fee is $350. Visit www.nakedkissesdogrescue.org to read our policies and to apply.    December 18, 2024, 4:21 pm

Story
Meet McPeachy !! This guy is a real character. He’s a very active, fun and high energy little guy. He is ready for an active family to entertain him. Mcpeachy is a Male, 9 month old, Chihuahua mix. He may have some whippet mixed in which would explain his energy level. He weighs 13 pounds and is full grown. He is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines. He is Heartworm negative. Mcpeachy is a whole lot of puppy in a small package. He is full of life and always ready to go. He loves playing with other dogs and a playful hyper companion would be wonderful for him. He is a social and happy guy. He loves everyone. He’s not your typical chihuahua in that respect. He’s outgoing and down for any adventure. Mcpeachy gets along with and loves all other dogs. He doesn’t care if they are big or small. He is hyper so make sure your dogs are ready for an in your face playmate. He hasn’t met any cats yet. He would likely try to play with them and I doubt they would like that. A bold playful cat that stands its ground might be okay. He loves everyone including kids however he is still very much a puppy. He’s hyper and has a tendency to play bite on hands. We’ve been working on it but it’s definitely a habit for him. He’s is also very bouncy and jumps all over people. His wild tendencies are likely too much for smaller kids although it’s nothing aggressive. Kids a bit older would be fun companions for him. Mcpeachy does have a fairly high energy level and needs a place to run and play all day. He does like to cuddle for a few minutes here and there when he’s tired but is not at all a “lap dog”. He is always on the go and moving around. We were surprised the first time he actually took a quick nap lol. He’s a lot of energy and likely will be lifelong. If you’re not prepared for a wild and crazy guy then he’s not the one for you. He definitely needs a fenced yard to run in. He did well on car rides. He has done wonderful with potty training. He’s crate trained and doesn’t protest to much if he’s had enough exercise prior to going in. He’s done well sleeping in the crate overnight. He’s pretty good at leash walking. He’s had no trouble sharing his dog food treats and toys with other dogs and people. This fun little puppy was adopted twice from the shelter and returned prior to our rescue taking him in. Please understand that we are telling you up front that he’s a lot. He’s hyper and wild and constantly playing. He is on the go constantly. He’s a wonderful puppy for a family looking for a very active dog. Please don’t adopt him unless you truly can provide the right type of home for him. Mcpeachy is high on life and ready for all the adventures. If you’re looking for a fun active dog in a small package then he may be the one! **Due to his need to run he will need a fenced yard. He is tall and lanky for his size so 4ft or above so he doesn’t get out. Vet and home checks required. Fenced yard required. 4ft or higher Located in Hampton VA. (He will need to be adopted within a 2 hour drive radius) ‼️Please message VillageDogResource@gmail.com directly with questions or to get an application. ‼️

Story
Meet Dakota! She came to us when her owner passed away and the family could not keep her. She is a 4-year-old, spayed Chihuahua mix that weighs 16lbs. Dakota does well with cats (especially kittens) and dogs; we have not tested her with children. This is what her foster has to say about her: Dakota is the best cuddler. She has been through a lot in her short life and gets nervous when things change. She is playful, she likes playing with dogs but kittens are her favorite! She does not like being crated; she does fine out alone. Whoever adopts her will have a great new little family member! Remember, adopting a dog means committing to them for life. You will also need to give her time to adjust to her new home and its expectations. If you're interested in adopting Dakota, please don't call. Instead, complete an online application on 4 Paws Animal Rescue's website at www.4pawz.org. We carefully review the care history of past and current pets. Our goal is to find the very best homes for all our dogs and cats, so we reserve the right to approve or deny applications based on what's best for the pets. #dogsareworthit #adoptdontshop #chimix #rescueisthebestbreed #lovedogs #dogs #dogsareacommittment
