Story

**REACTIVE DOG SEEKING VERY EXPERIENCED OWNER** Hi, I am Kevin, a 3-year-old rat terrier mix. I need a VERY patient, experienced owner, and someone who truly understands *reactive* dogs. I get scared easily, don’t like quick movements, and take *months* to warm up. Until then, I need structure, training, and patience. I am a *nip/bite risk* if I feel threatened, so absolutely NO kids or inexperienced owners. I must be the *only pet* in the house. I have a moderate prey drive so cats are iffy so it’s best to be solo. I’m very smart, crate-trained, and know commands, but I need someone who respects my space. I can’t be left alone outside because I’ll escape. If you adopt me and change your mind, I *MUST* go back to my foster Mom, NEVER a shelter. She will make sure I go to the right home. If you can commit to training, patience, and love, I promise I’m worth it. Contact my foster mom for more.

Story

Hi my name is Smokey. I am a super sweet and very active 1 year old Rat Terrier mix who weighs 11 lbs. I am so greatful to Critter Cavalry and happy to be in the care of my foster mom Dawn. I have gone through a lot in my short life. My original family adopted me as a puppy. They did not have a fenced in yard and just let me run around wherever I wanted. Well one day I did not get out of the way quick enough and got hit by a car. The people just drove off. Fortuately my family came to get me immediately. I was so distraught as both of my back legs were broken. My family spent a lot of money trying to get me well but could not afford physical therapy on top of everything else. Soon my legs began to hurt and I had trouble walking. A neighbor knew of Critter Cavalry and that is how I got here. I have had additional surgery and excelled in my physical therapy. I am now ready to find my forever home. I have a blast with the other 2 small dogs in my foster home. They played a very important part in my recovery. I want to keep my muscles strong and my hips working properly so I need a home with another small dog my age and size to be my exercise buddy. No big dogs for me please. I am scared of them and bark at them. I am a great little guy who is housebroken to a doggie door and crate trained. I love to go for walks and love to run around in our fenced in yard and play games in the house. If you are an active family and already have one little active girl or guy then you are the family for me. I have been neutered and am current on all my shots and microchipped. To be considered for my forever family and to request an application please contact Vivienne at viviennejames@comcast.net. APPROVED APPLICATION AND ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED. (I am currently in Tennessee and can be transported to my forever home upon adoption.)February 17, 2025, 2:23 pm

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Penny! Penny is about 5 years old and 10 pounds. She is housetrained, crate trained and gets along with other dogs but no cats please for this cutie. This little girl loves to run, play and is great on a leash and in the car. An adopter with Rat Terrier experience will be best! Penny was picked up as a stray in South Jersey. Sadly, her family never came looking for her. When Penny was found, her right rear leg had already been removed. She hasn't shared with us what happened and that's OK because that part of her life is behind her, and it certainly doesn't hinder her in any way. Look at her run and play here: https://www.facebook.com/711622587/videos/pcb.10164002676812588/4236660883244925 This little girl is ready to start a new chapter, one with a family that will love her FURever! Children in her new home should be 10 years old or older please. Penny is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. If interested, please fill out an application at njshpetrescue.org Please NOTE- You MUST live within 90 minutes of Chester, NJ to apply.

Story

Rio, Rio Rio! Is a beautiful girl at the perfect size. She weighs about 30 pounds so will fit just about any life style. She is food motivated with a cute happy feet approach to both food and greeting her loved people. She can be timid when meeting new people but if you let her come to you she does well. The same can be said when she meets new humans. Just chill and let her come to you. Sweet Rio has stories to tell... Like how she ended up with 3 toes on one foot, how she isn't real fond of most vets even though they have helped her and about the woman that saved her. She is healthy, up to date on vaccines, spayed and on heartworm prevention. Apply at forrescue.net
