Story

Meet Zach – The Sweetest Scruffy Little Elf Looking for Love! Say hello to Zach, an adorable Shih Tzu and Jack Russell mix with the perfect blend of charm and cuddly vibes! Weighing just 11 pounds, Zach is a delightful little guy with a wiry coat and a heart full of love to share. At 6 years old, he’s reached that wonderful age where he’s calm, easygoing, and oh-so-ready to settle into his forever home. Zach’s story is one of love and loss. His devoted owner recently passed away, leaving him without a family to call his own. Fortunately, a kind foster stepped forward to care for him, and now Critter Cavalry Rescue is on the hunt for his perfect match. Zach is the ideal companion for just about anyone! He’s a low-maintenance, snuggly little guy with an easygoing personality. Whether you’re a retired individual or couple, a young family looking for a calm companion, or empty nesters ready for a travel buddy, Zach fits the bill. He’s a leash-walking pro, rides like a dream in the car, and gets along great with other dogs—perfect for families with pets or those who visit friends and family with furry companions. With his endearing scruffy look and semi-low-shedding coat, Zach is not just cute—he’s irresistibly charming. This little “elf on the shelf” is ready to bring love and joy to his new home, and we know the perfect match is out there waiting for him. If you’d like to make Zach part of your family, please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com. Let’s find this little sweetheart the forever home he deserves! 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.comDecember 12, 2024, 10:09 pm

Story

Meet Lizard who came to NorthStar along with 6 siblings when his former owners became homeless. All the others have since been adopted but poor Lizard still waits for his forever home. Lizard is a Shih Tzu mix, approximately 1 year old, and weighing just 11 pounds. Lizard does have some “quirks” we think you should know about. He has a very mild case of cherry eye. The vet has checked him out and it does not affect his vision or his tear ducts and is not bothersome at all to him. In fact, his eyesight is perfect! We believe that Lizard’s former owners had their dogs using wee wee pads and they probably had accidents with that many dogs in the house. When he came to NJ, Lizard was very skeptical about grass! But through time and a big doggie sister, he learned to accept and even like it and finally is housebroken for the most part. He sometimes has an accident in the house so it’s best to keep a weewee pad out. Recently he started going potty in his bed and in his crate when it contained blankets. If we remove the bedding from the crate & leave out a wee wee pad, he does better. Occasionally we put him in diapers - The goal is to make him dislike wearing them so much that he only goes outside. So far so good as no accidents in 2 weeks! Lizard would do best in a home without children or possibly children over 10 years old as he has been fearful of sudden movements and has shown he is willing to go after a child but not an adult. He currently has a human sibling who he has grown to love and not want to attack at any movement made. Ideally, Lizard would be best in a home without kids. Though out in public Lizard may seem fearful of other dogs, he is just fine living with them – check out the photos of Lizard with other dogs and with cats, too. He can get jealous but easily overcomes that in less than 48 hours! We feel that Lizard would also be happy in a home where he was an “only dog”. When Lizard was in a foster home in Texas, he was afraid of larger cats. However, he is good with and enjoys the company of smaller cats as you can see in his photos. He will actually groom them and sleep with them. As Lizard is only a year old, there is some puppy energy but he does tire quickly so it’s short lived. He is a Netflix and chill type of dude! And above all he is very cuddly and will fall asleep in your arms like a baby if given the opportunity! Lizard has been neutered, microchipped and brought up to date on vaccines. The adoption fee for this boy is $425. If you are interested in meeting Lizard please consider submitting an adoption application and be sure to mention his name - HC Lizard TX!!!!December 10, 2024, 2:12 pm

&#239&#187&#191Tiny pup January was born on 11/18/2024 - her mom is a Shih Tzu and her dad is a Boston (we have included photos of both of them).

Story

Meet HC Bigelow TX whose owners found themselves without a home and unable to care for him and their other dogs. Bigelow is a Shih Tzu mix, approximately 6 years old, and weighing just 13 pounds. Upon arrival in NJ, he was adopted but has now been returned to NorthStar because his adopter can no longer care for him. This adorable boy is "back on the market" and looking for a new place to hang his leash! Bigelow's foster mom says he is just the sweetest guy! He is house trained and crate trained and wants to be close by, but not underfoot. He isn’t comfortable being on the couch - much prefers a bed on the floor by your feet. Bigelow does love going on car rides & will happily accompany you on your errands. Bigelow walks well on a leash although he doesn't like to walk very far - he needs some encouragement periodically to keep walking. He gets a few houses away from home and is ready to turn around. Bigelow is somewhat vocal so he would not be a good choice for an apartment - single home living would be best for him (and your neighbors!) If you are interested in Bigelow please consider submitting an adoption application and be sure to mention his name - HC Bigelow TX!! His adoption fee is $425.December 20, 2024, 5:53 pm
