Story
Bruce is appx 2 year old  mix - and honestly we don't know what kind but his size and shape are defintiely unique.  He weighs appx 80  lbs.  Bruce somehow found himself lost and lonely and was taken in by some very nice people.  He is a beautiful boy and is truly a gentle giant! Bruce is house trained and crate trained.  He is a medium energy young man that gets along well with the other dog in his foster home.  He loves play time outside, as well as being a snuggly couch potato. Bruce is learning to walk on leash, but still pulls some and needs a little training.  He loves to ride in a car.  He likes carrots and ice cubes.  He loves to look out the window and will do that for hours.  He recently spent some time boarding and was a favorite with the staff.  He even spent some time with children of the staff and was super gentle and nice with them.     Bruce is not fond of cats, so no feline siblings for Bruce.  He would probably do best with another gentle, playful dog of same size.  He would be fine being the only dog and always center of attention too!  Older children might be best, but only because of his size.     If you are looking for a best friend and/or family member to run, hike, play, explore, and then curl up for some couch time, Bruce is your guy!  He is so beautiful.  Absolutely stunning! ##1995120##

Story
We are so excited to be a part of changing the future for this handsome male Great Dane called Neville.  Recently we were asked to help this one year old fawn colored boy to find a home and to do all the vetting from the ground up. You see, Neville was orphaned at birth when his momma died and he was hand- raised and fed by a woman who dearly loved him and still does. Eventually, she realized she was overwhelmed due to his size and the future of caring for him (she was a senior lady)  and sadly she surrendered him to Critter Cavalry Rescue.   Soon our foster mom who has two Great Danes herself, quickly figured out that Neville had only been around his Great Dane dad and siblings all his life and it was a sight to behold when he met the variety of dogs at this new foster home.  Neville tucked his tail and ran with sheer fright! He has since embraced all the foster dogs, cats, horses, donkeys and pigs as his friends. This special boy doesn’t have a mean bone in his body. And if you know the Dane breed traits, he is all of those and more.  He loves to run and play with all his new dog friends and we think he believes he has died and gone to dog heaven with all these friends to play with. Eager to please, Neville is the happiest when he puts his huge head in your lap to absorb all the love from his foster mom.  He loves to be petted and told how good a boy he really is. He is still a wee bit timid of new things and he will seek out a kind human to lean on for reassurance that all is well.   He is not in the house 24/7, but close to being housebroken all the same.  He has been neutered and we talked his stomach for the prevention of stomach flipping later in life.  This common malady effects the large breed dogs in high numbers and the reality of it happening is huge.  It is costly and often how large dogs end up in the ER at the expense of well over $5000 with no guarantee that the emergency surgery will save the dog.   We try to give this all-important insurance by tacking the stomach to help prevent any future flipping of the stomach.  We know that Neville will be the love of some family’s life if he is chosen.  We will require a fenced yard and someone that does not leave him 8-9 hours daily for work.  Shorter work hours away are fine, but he will be lonely if left crated for 8-9 hours. If you are interested in this giant lovebug please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com   He is worth every penny donated to adopt him.  You will see that instantly. 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 15, 2024, 12:43 am

Story
Luna is an amazing, cuddly, young great dane. We rescued her about a year ago and have absolutely loved her, but she had not gotten along super well with some of our other great dane rescues. She recently got in a fight with one of our rescues and we decided that she needs a less stimulating environment in a home with fewer dogs (she makes 5 total in our home at present). It breaks our heart to list her, but we think she can make another family really happy. She is great in the car (loves a road trip), good on a leash, has some energy, but not too much. She loves to cuddle on the couch.
