Story
Katanya went on an ExPAWdition! Let`s read all about it:`Katanya - ExpawditionHopped right into car, but because she is an 85 lb nervous Nelly she wants to be in the front so I had to tether her in the back. She was spooked by large trucks going by and anything noisy, so I kept the car calm as we headed for a long walk at Noland.For such a nervous girl she was surprisingly pretty good on the leash! She obvi needs leash training but she doesn’t go nuts…she’s not interested in squirrels which makes it easier!It didn’t seem like she’d been in water before because she timidly took 3 small steps then just kept on walking until she just stood in it, wagging her tail. I think she’d make someone a super fun waterdog as she smiled and hopped about happily when she got out.At first she was jumpy and scared with people who went by, but with positive reinforcement halfway through she would move aside and sit calmly until they passed. She was definitely curious and wanted to say hi.Whenever she got nervous in general I gave her positive corrections and she was very responsive. I think she’s very smart and could train easily. When we passed playing laughing little kids she perked right up, wagging her tail.After 5 miles she was much more settled so I let her poke her nose out the window on the drive back which she loved, enjoying the wind in her nose and all the smells.She needs someone who can help build her confidence and offer a safe somewhat calm/quiet environment while she learns she can just be a big goofy happy girl. I’d say no fireworks and construction stuff. Don’t think she’s house trained but probably good with other dogs, maybe cats too because she couldn’t care less about squirrels.`Hello, I`m Katanya. I may be a little shy at first, but once I get to know you, I promise to be the most loyal friend you`ve ever had. I`m a gentle soul, mellow and independent. I love exploring new things, my curiosity knows no bounds. I`m also smart, so teaching me new tricks will be a fun adventure for both of us. Yes, I might be a bit nervous, but with your love and patience, I`ll learn to trust again. I can`t wait to meet your whole family, I promise to be sweet to everyone (I am not too sure how I will feel about active kiddos... I find them pretty overwhelming). I`m not just looking for a home, I`m looking for a family who`ll love me for who I am. Adopt me and let`s create beautiful memories together.

Story
Active Axel is a handsome golden male German Shepherd/ Great Pyrenees mix who was born on February 11th, 2023 and is still a puppy in every way. He is one of six siblings that survived from a litter of 12. Our guy Axel weighs approximately 90 lbs, and is very GSD smart loving to be next to his humans.  This huge puppy is full of energy and he will fit perfectly in a home where there is a lot of activity, a fenced yard and people who love the BIG DOGS! He really likes walking, hiking, and just a ton of fun with activity. He also loves water and treats the water trough as his own personal spa. We recommend a home with a fence that is a minimum of 5 feet tall.   We do not suggest he go to a home with small children, or farm animals simply because he has no experience with them.  He hangs with his siblings and does well playing with them and also just enjoying their company.  He does need to eat separately for dinner as he protects his food from the other dogs due to early starvation. Handsome Axel is fully vetted, neutered and microchipped and he is kennel and crate trained for quiet time.  This boy needs some time and attention from a caring and dog savvy owner.  He would love to cuddle with you and be your adored companion.  He has such potential…..such love and such a need to grow and evolve into a fine companion in life.  Please email us at ccrtennessee@gmail.com if you are interested in this big baby!  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.comNovember 4, 2024, 11:48 pm

Story
Gemma is our super smart and happy German Shepherd girl that is a real gem of a dog. This girl is 6 years old and weighs in on the smaller side of a GSD at just 60 pounds.  She is a genuinely curious and happy girl that has all the right measures of playfulness and lazy cuddly time to her personality.  Her favorite things are stuffed toys and tennis balls. This girl is a 'chill' girl and loves to take lots of naps during the day. She has great manners, knows basic commands, is crate trained and housebroken.   She would do great in a home with or without other dogs but we are told that she is a NO CAT type of dog.  She would like to hang out with children older than 10 years of age and on the calm side.  Gemma is ready to find her forever home where she can greet you with her tail wagging and a happy face that lets you know you are important in her life.   If you are interested please write to Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com     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 4, 2024, 11:48 pm

Story
This boy is called Kowboy Kirby and he is a one-year-old 65 lb black and tan German Shepherd who doesn't have an aggressive bone in his body about anything or anyone. He is clueless as to why he should be, so he isn't. Kowboy Kirby is just kind of a goofball that is intelligent and needs to continue to have someone surround him with good guidance and boundaries and the ability to polish him into a fabulous dog. Training is necessary for any German Shepherd and especially for this young boy who hasn't been trained starting early in puppyhood. Only in the past 2 months has he had guidance and a schedule with consistency. He used to not tolerate a wire crate but now he's fine in a plastic crate and he tolerates that. It will be necessary for him not to be left loose in the house when people are gone. He'll get into too much mischief as most dogs will do. Kirby is really a special boy to be as nice and sweet as he is considering the fact that he was found in the middle of a highway during a rainstorm back in July. It was determined that he actually had been given away by someone at a Walmart. These animals should never be handed around like this, but it seems like it's happening more and more. Kirby is housebroken and he walks really nicely on a leash if you're consistent doing it everyday. This is a diamond in the rough kind of guy and we are hoping that you will see the diamond and take him home. Please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com And mention where you live, city and state. We transport outside Tennessee to the Northeast as well as doing adoptions locally where we are located in Nashville. 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 7, 2024, 10:11 pm
