Story
My partner and I got Arare two years ago as an emotional support animal. He loves to cuddle and has a super playful spirit. He likes to spend as much time with his person as possible. He would prefer to be your one and only but if others are around they need to understand that belly rubs and probably a round of fetch is one the menu. He’s very social and loves to make friends with other dogs both bigger and small he doesn’t discriminate on letting the good time role. He is a little stubborn but nothing major that praise won’t fix. He knows commands like sit, paw (handshake), lay down, stop and bye. Due to mental and physical health issues we haven’t had time to give him the love and affection he deserves. The adoption fee is only listed due to psychology saying you’re more attached to something when it’s not given away for free. I really want a family that wants to love him as much as he wants to give it.

These pups are in Richmond, Virginia too!

Story
Vivian needs someone who is willing to put the time and energy into properly training her. We adopted her a year ago from a breeder of Shih Tzus. She was a year old and had not been purchased as a puppy. Despite her age, Viv had never been named or seemingly given any attention. She was timid and fully untrained. Over the past year, Vivian has relaxed with my wife and me. She loves to snuggle up against us and be petted. She does not relax with any other people. Her issue has worsened since we had a baby 3 months ago. She loves the baby, but barks and nips at the ankles of anyone else who comes in the house or room, even our 12 & and 15-year-old sons. Additionally, we have been unable to completely house-train Vivian. She continues to pee and poop in the house, even minutes after going outside. Viv does love other dogs. She spends hours playing and wrestling with our other dog, a sheepadoodle mix. Viv is not spayed. We are waiving adoption fee as new owners must get her spayed.

Story
My name is Winston and I am a 6-year-old male poodle mix that is only 12 to 14 lb of pure love. My family has had a sudden and tragic break up and my mom had to go live with her sister and I could not come with her. She had big dogs that might hurt me and Critter Cavalry has helped me and her by offering to find me a good home. I have lived with young children and I love them. I am good with other dogs as long as they don't try to overpower me and scare me. I love to go for car rides and I love to sit in your lap and have you tell me how much you love me. I am a little nervous right now because I don't know what is going on with all the anger that has been around me. I am ready for a peaceful and loving family to adopt me. I am housebroken and I have been good around the foster mom's other big dogs and cats. Everyone has been so nice to me and I'm ready to be nice and loving back in a new home. I walk great on a leash except I do pull a little bit. You see, my former mom didn't take me for walks very much but I sure hope someone will do that in the future when I go live with them. I am ready for a fresh start where there's no angry voices but only kindness. Please write to Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com I am in Nashville Tennessee and I can transport to many different places in the Northeast. 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 19, 2024, 4:27 pm

Story
  My name is Charo and I am a senior girl poodle that is 12-13  years old and I weigh approximately 16 lb. My beloved senior mom is very ill and she is having to give up her precious little girls and Critter Cavalry Rescue is helping us find new homes.  As you can see in these pictures that were just made, I'm a little scared and really don't know what has just happened in my life. Critter Cavalry is reassuring me every minute of the day, that they will do great things for me. They have promised that they find me a wonderful family or person to love me for many years to come. I may be a senior, but I don't act like it. I don't have an ounce of arthritis and I am perky and spunky and would love to go for walks with you every day and snuggle with you. I haven't been on a leash a whole lot, but I know I would love getting out and seeing the world from the sidewalk with a new mom. I am healthy and I am spayed and I am microchipped and I have had blood work done. I look terrific on paper and I look even better in person. I am good with other dogs and cats and I'm a little shy with people at first but I haven't really gotten out a lot in my life. I've just been with my mom and my sisters. Do you have a place in your heart and home that I can come and live for many years? Just write to Critter Cavalry at ccrnewengland@gmail.com.   they transport every weekend from Tennessee to the Northeast and I would be easy for you to adopt and then pick up from their transport van. The ride is very nice.
