Story
Meet SONNY BOY Sonny is a five-year-old small breed mix who is full-grown at 25 lbs. His DNA tests say mostly Pomeranian and Chihuahua with a bit of Dachshund. But like many small dogs, he struggles with possessive behavior in which he “lays claim” to a particular resource, typically a specific toy or the attention of his favorite human. He's a snuggle bug who is happy to be your lap dog - but also needs to be active and kept occupied. He requires a patient, strong, and experienced small and possessive dog owner. Sonny is the loyalist of loyal dogs to his people. But he has struggled with being rehomed and his resource guarding has escalated due to all of the changing in his environments. For this reason we are committed to only placing him in a home that is well aware and experienced with managing resource aggression behaviors.   This little guy loves nothing more than snuggling up on your lap and soaking up some attention. In fact, Sonny is the perfect lap dog - if you're okay with him laying claim to your lap as his own personal resource.But don't let his small size fool you - Sonny is also full of energy, sass, and needs to be kept active. He's an intelligent dog who loves to learn new tricks, but he can also be a bit of a handful. He has a bite history that is manageable and connected to dogs toys, but requires a patient and experienced owner who is willing to put in the work to manage his resource aggression behaviors and provide him with an environment that won’t trigger these bad behaviors.   Sonny was picked up as a stray in Gulfport, Mississippi, and after making his way to Nashville, TN, his x-rays revealed that he has a shotgun pellet that healed near his pelvis. We are only rehoming Sonny to quiet homes and do not include children or frequent visitors because, in his previous home, Sonny developed a reputation for snapping at strangers. This sweet dog is not at all aggressive towards strangers or children as a rule. In fact, he's very fond of strangers and is quick to claim visitors as family. His favorite person in the world is his vet! He simply has a charming but very dominant personality and  becomes temperamental and territorial when threatened and he’s overly protective of his belongings. Experienced small dog owners will know this Chihuahua personality trait well and Critter Cavalry is requesting that adopters commit to a toy-free home for the first 3 months so that Sonny is setup for success with regard to his resource guarding tendencies.    Sonny Boy happily lives with dogs of all sizes and ages and is an excellent companion to dogs of his size in particular. He’s a good wrestler and is respectful of his companion’s meals. No cats because he barks and scares them. He loves to play and treasures the attention of his family. He is house-trained, leash-trained, and knows basic commands. He enjoy’s being vocal but is mature enough to be corrected when barking excessively. There is a lot of sweet personality and attitude packed into this adorable dog. The ideal owner for Sonny would include a quiet household. With or without a companion dog as long as the companion dog is submissive. A fenced-in yard is a plus - but not required as long as this social boy gets his regular activity. Sonny does get regular visits to the dog park but requires an attentive owner because dog barks frequently have lose balls which can easily trigger his possessive tendencies.    If you're up for the challenge, you'll be rewarded with a lifelong friend who is fiercely loyal and always ready for a good time. Middle-Tennessee only.  Please email us at ccrtennessee@gmail.com. ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.

Story
This is kind of a big deal!!Feb 21 Bobo had his vet visit where he had a full dental. Prior to that his teeth hurt so badly he didn't even want to eat. Here we are a week later... And he is loving that bully stick!! He's playing with toys now and bouncing and running in the yard. He's a completely different dogHello everyone! This is Bobo he is one of the California dogs. He's about 8 years old and around 9 lbs. He's a pom mixHe is crate trained and housebroken and learns new routines very quickly. In 3 days he had figured out our routine and fell right into it. He is loose in the house with my resident dog when I run errands.He is tenderfooted outside in our yard which makes me wonder if he's had a well manicured grass lawn instead of being walked on a variety of surfaces. He does well on a leash but enjoys the freedom of a fenced back yard.He is not a high energy dog. He's very happy to follow you from room to room wagging his tail and curl up wherever you are.He gets along well with my resident dog and although he hasn't started playing yet, (My dog has tried lol) he may do that once he decompresses a bit. Untested with cats and kids.I gave him a bath and blew him dry, trimmed his feet and nails and he was VERY good for the whole procedure. It's obvious he's been groomed regularly in his life. He's super soft (outside pics were taken right after his bath) He loves to sunbathe in the yard now that temps have finally warmed up.He LOVES being held and melts in your arms even when sitting on the couch. He's VERY sweet and is the easiest foster that I have ever had. SWEET SWEET SWEET. He's not a big kisser nor does he jump on the couch. He uses little doggie steps that I have put next to the couch. I have not heard him bark once.He visited the vet for neutering and an extensive dental. It was clear how much pain he was in because he's a totally different dog!He's happy, spins for his dinner and dives into his crate for meals. He's trying to figure out how to play with toys now that he can put his mouth on them without any pain.Bobo is a precious loving little dog who would LOVE a lap of his own! Could you be that home?This is Bobo he is one of the California dogs. He's about 8 years old and around 12 lbs. He's a pom mix Don't let that coat fool you!! He's not acclimated to our temps and he's SUCH a trooper. He LOVES going outside with my resident dog and will come in shivering uncontrollably. But even in freezing temps he's always happy to go out and do his business. I suspect when warmer temps come he will be right there sunbathing with the best of them. He is crate trained and housebroken and learns new routines very quickly. He's not been here long but has already figured out our scheduled TV time and he is ready to curl up with you and nap. He is tenderfooted outside in our yard which makes me wonder if he's had a well manicured grass lawn instead of being walked on a variety of surfaces. He does well on a leash but enjoys the freedom of a fenced back yard. He is not a high energy dog. He's very happy to follow you from room to room wagging his tail and curl up wherever you are.

I have not heard him bark once. He has his big vet appointment Friday and then will be ready for a new home. Bobo is precious and I really don't use that word often. His whole world has been turned upside down and he's adjusting so well to all of the changes.Little Bobo had his BIG vet visit yesterday and had 10 teeth pulled, neutered, rabies, heartworm check and microchip! He was SUCH a trooper. Everyone at the vets adored him and said what a sweetheart he is.Time for some R + R and healing.Available dogs are met by pre-approved adopters ONLY after a match is made.
