Story
PLEASE READ ENTIRE POST AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION - PEARL BREED - Maltese SIZE - About 10 pounds AGE - 8 years GENDER - Female MEDICAL CONCERNS - None known BEHAVIOR CONCERNS - None known SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS - Pearl is a beautiful female Maltese who came to us recently from a breeding operation in North Carolina. Understandably this sweet little lady is learning to love and trust humans since being a beloved pet has not been a part of her past life. Pearl arrived with two other females from the same household and they cling to one other for comfort, yet all are very easily handled and snuggled. Each will do well with a caring owner who has consistent time to give to them to make them feel loved and secure. Fully grown at just 10 pounds, she is a perfect size for most homes. Upon arrival Pearl had conjunctivitis in both eyes, a condition we are successfully treating. Though breeders are notorious for giving only cursory care to their dogs, Pearl appears to have been treated well. She is now spayed, microchipped and vaccinated, and she has tested negative for heart worm and placed on prevention. Her skin and coat are beautiful, and she appears in very good health. At 8 years old, she is little more than a middle aged girl for her size and breed. We are seeking a home with an adopter able to work from home or be at home the majority of the day to spend time showing Pearl consistent love and attention A home with another small, well-behaved dog may be an asset for Pearl as she acclimates. A fenced, secure yard is a must, as is a home without larger pets or small children. Our adoption process starts with your email to carerescue@aol.com or Adopt a Pet inquiry. After we receive it, we will email you our prescreening questionnaire. Your answers will help us determine that your home and lifestyle matches the needs of the Pearl as well as our adoption criteria. Once determined, we will set up a private meeting for you and your family to meet Pearl at a park near our private kennel just east of Richmond. After meeting her and determining that she matches your preferences for a pet, we will accept your application. A home visit by one of our trained volunteers is required for all adoptions, and we will speak with your vet to ensure that you are a responsible pet owner.

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
