Story
Please contact foster parent at lashleydunc11@aol.comIn a few words, Indy can be described as an incredibly intelligent energizer bunny.He loves children and has done well in a household with cats and dogs*.Once he gets to know you, he is a huge cuddle bug! He fully expects to share a pillow with his human every night. You will never have to worry about being cold mid-winter again!He is uber smart and has taught himself a lot of tricks all on his own! He knows how to open doors (only to get to his favorite people to make sure they are safe) and will bring his leash to you when he wants to go out. He knows how to pick up his mess if you tell him `get your ball` if he ever leaves it in an inconvenient spot. And he loves his ball! If his human isn`t quite getting what he wants, he will take them gently by the hand to lead them. Sometimes he will even walk the other dogs if a leash is dropped.He loves long grass and standing on outdoor furniture (he learned that we in fact cannot stand on the inside dining table but foster mom does not care if I stand on the outdoor table, pool box, pool recliner or anything else outside). Really, he is probably part billy goat without the headbutts to your gonads. So if you ever wanted a pet goat but your stinky HOA won`t let you have one......He would need at least a 4.5ft tall fence as he has mad hops.Indy is VERY athletic and does absolutely need an outlet. He is looking for a VERY active home or a sporting/working home. This really is one of THE BEST dogs anyone will have the privilege of owning but not everyone has the brains and physical aptitude for him (which is true for most working dogs). So if you are one of those special someone`s, we definitely want to hear from you!Indy currently participates in cani-cross and we hope to have him evaluated for agility and flyball soon.I have fostered for 15 years, a huge variety of dogs (mostly highly intelligent working breeds) and I will say, Indy has blown me away. He has so much potential that I know he is going to make someone incredibly happy and proud.*Indy is dog friendly for the most part but does have some resource guarding around toys and high value areas. 90% of the time he is completely fine. This is where an experienced owner comes in who is used to working dogs who can have moments of intensity. We have managed him very successfully for over a year in a large pack of pups. It is very doable but a lot of average d

Blaze is your go to boy. He loved going on our walk and ending our time in the play yard. Towards the end all he wanted was some head and belly scratches. Blaze knows the sit command and takes treats very well. He is a true gentleman and would make a great friend to anyone.

Story
Herbie is a lovable 70-pound Boxer mix with a heart full of gold. About a year old, he was found wandering the back roads of Tennessee without a collar or microchip, battling a tough case of mange. While no one has come forward to claim him, Herbie is now looking for his forever family! His skin is healing beautifully, and his sweet, curious nature shines through more each day. ‍&#226&#153&#130&#239&#184&#143 Herbie enjoys his daily walks and is getting better at leash manners. He’s also learning to curb his excitement when greeting people! He’s great with other dogs and, after playtime, is happy to sit quietly by your side. He hasn’t been tested with cats or kids yet, but we think his gentle personality would be a great match for the right home! Critter Cavalry Rescue is a Middle Tennessee-based 501(c)(3) that travels to the Northeast states weekly, helping high-risk homeless animals like Herbie find loving homes. For more info on our mission, adoption fees, and drop-off points, visit us at CritterCavalry.com! &#226&#156&#168 Could your family be the one Herbie's been waiting for? &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Email us at ccrnewengland@gmail.com to request an adoption application.  PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.November 11, 2024, 7:28 pm

Breed: Boxer / American Bulldog? maybe? Size: Large; currently 70+ lbs Estimated Birthday: 3/2/2020 House-Trained: Yes --=========================== ---------- Crate-Trained: Yes, and kennels on command! Kid-Friendly: Needs a home with kids over 12 years This sweet girl came to the rescue in need of bowel obstruction surgery after she thought a sock was a yummy snack. She made it through surgery and has been recovering nicely! Bella Vida is quite shy and a bit hesitant to open up to new people, so she is looking for a patient family that will give her time and let her know she is safe. Bella Vida is selective with her dog friends and may do better with male dogs. She is looking for a house with no small children and would thrive with an active family with older kids. Bella Vida loves to go on daily walks and will play fetch for hours! She will always follow up these play sessions with a cuddle session on the couch. She loves deconstructing stuffed toys and sometimes her bedding. We would recommend caution in allowing Bella Vida unsupervised access to toys due to her recent sock-eating debacle. Before emailing- please read: - Yes, this dog is available for adoption - The adoption fee for Bella Vida is $365 - Apply at c2cnd.org - The adoption fee covers their age appropriate shots, microchip, deworming, spay/neuter, and any other medical expenses while in our care. - Local adopters only. Due to our thorough adoption process including home visits, we limit our adoptions to local families in the greater Charlotte area. - If you have any additional questions, email us at dogs@c2cnd.org and we will respond as soon as possible!
