Story
Charlie is a cute, sweet 8 month old Maltese mix. He loves to play and cuddle. He gets along great with other dogs and we don't believe he would have an issue with cats either. He would also do great with older children that know how to handle a small dog. Charlie is doing great with crate training and it shouldn't take much to finish his house training. He is neutered, current on shots, flea and heartworm prevention. If you are interested in making an appointment to adopt, please submit our application at Richardsonrescue.org. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 20, 2024, 12:52 pm

Story
My name is Frodo. I happened to do something to my back and lost the ability to use my legs. I now walk and run after a lot of physical therapy. I love people and other pets especially cats. I would like to go to a home where someone is working from home or can take me with them. I am working on being alone but I am not a fan. I also am learning to ride in the car at night, the headlights are scary. I do well in public places just make sure people go slow. I love following my human siblings around and begged to be picked up. I will lick you in the face forever and even follow you to the shower. I will need to go to someone who understands I cannot jump off furniture or the bed. I will need ramps. I am getting better but one wrong move and it would be starting over.

These pups are in Charlotte, North Carolina too!

Story
It is most unusual that Critter Cavalry rescue has been able to offer a Japanese Chin mix dog to the community of rescue adopters. This boy is probably 70% Japanese chin and maybe the other percentage is Shih Tzu. But he is the cutest little guy at just 18 months of age and 13 lb of pure soft hair.   His name is Cash and we know that someone will hit the jackpot if they adopt this boy. He is easy on a leash meets people with a Ted bit of shyness but yet welcoming manners and he is good with all other dogs and would most probably be best friends with a cat if he was invited to be. He's working on housebreaking as we haven't had any but a couple of weeks and he's learning the rules and schedule. He is a beautiful boy with a sweet and soft demeanor just as sweet and soft as he looks. We love his black faced and his warm dark eyes that look at you with the question of ' will you be my next mom or dad?'. He is a tiny little thing that will be such a treasure to have in your life. The breed is Hardy and exceptionally smart and very affectionate. You will find nothing wrong with life if Cash is by your side traveling life's journey while riding in the car for adventures or walking the pathways of life to explore the neighborhood.   He will be a friendship magnet as people stop to admire his handsome beauty. If you were interested in this very young Japanese Chin mix please write to 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.comNovember 18, 2024, 7:24 pm

Story
Cash is an absolute delight—super cute, incredibly sweet, and full of love. At 18 months old, this 13-pound bundle of Japanese Chin mix joy, is still very much a puppy at heart.  He has wonderful playful and affectionate personality that will melt anyone’s heart. Cash thrives on human companionship -- a true lap dog who loves to curl up with you and soak up all the love and attention you can give. His ideal day includes snuggling on the couch, getting belly rubs, and being your constant companion. If you’re looking for a cuddly little buddy who’ll be by your side, Cash is the one!  Though he’s crate trained, Cash isn't a huge fan of being in his crate for long periods of time.. However, he’s making great progress and with some patience, he'll continue to improve. Cash is still working on his house training, but he’s learning quickly and with consistent routines, he'll be fully housebroken in no time. Cash is great on a leash and enjoys going for walks, which will be an excellent way for him to bond with his new family while staying active. He’s friendly with other dogs and loves to play, but we’re not sure how he feels about cats just yet.  Cash would do best in a home where someone is around most of the time. He loves attention and would appreciate having a family that can give him the time and love he craves. While he’d likely do well with older kids due to his unknown background, he’s gentle and sweet, so with proper introductions, he might do fine with younger children as well.  If you’re looking for a lovable companion who will adore you and bring endless joy into your life, Cash would make an amazing addition to your family! He is in Tennessee, but can be transported to the Northeast for you is needed! If interested, please contact ccrtennessee@gmail.com for an application.  November 18, 2024, 7:24 pm
