Story
Pinky is currently in foster and doing great! Her foster`s report she is house trained, crate trained, does well with the cat in the home and loves belly rubs. Here`s what else they have to say`I think one of my favorite things that Pinky does is smile when I get home from work, afterI`ve been gone all day (my boyfriend was home, or got home much earlier then I) and shegets super excited and starts smiling at me. I also love how I am never lonely at home. Shelikes to follow me literally everywhere, whether that`s cleaning, watching tv, or studying, sheis very curious with everything. Also if you stop giving her bellyrubs she will lay on her backand wiggle side to side until she gets more.She loves showing off her toys as well.`

Kahu has lived with children of all ages, including infants, and is gentle and playful with them. She is very social with people and likes to get pets. Kahu would be a great fit in any family.

Story
Kylo is very full of energy and love he definitely needs a yard to run in and a home with space that unfortunately I just can’t accommodate. His zoomies are A LOT LOL! He’s a big time chewer so tough toys are a must. Kylo is very treat and food possessive so best to separate feed and do not take his treats/food away by hand. He’s a good boy just needs someone with patience and the time to work with him after all he’s just a puppy 8 1/2 months old

Name: Delinda Age: approx 3 years Weight: 50 pounds Color: brown/white Breed: Lab/Pittie mix Vaccines: up to date Altered: yes Heartworm Status: negative Energy Level: active House trained: yes Crate trained: yes Dog friendly: can be selective Cat friendly: no Kid friendly: yes, very hyper so little ones may not be best Temperament: sweet, playful, friendly, very willing to please Adoption fee: 275 Notes: was in training for 3 weeks. This beautiful girl was due to euthanized 12 hours before we saved her due to space. She came from Texas which is overloaded with unwanted animals. Luckily she's no longer unwanted. Need a hype girl? Someone who you can't have a bad day around? One who will encourage you? Show you the joy in little things? Someone who will worship the ground you walk? If you said yes to any of these Delinda is for you! We learned some great stuff about this girl. -shes house broken. No chewing and doesn't need to be crated either. -loves lounging on the couch The things that need work -shes hyper. Always excited, she did improve greatly Jordan said. The jumping stopped and she did learn its okay to not always have to be amped up. -crate training...not vocal and goes in crate nicely but uses the bathroom despite if she's only crated temporarily or few a few hours. Thankfully if adopter doesn't have her crated she is house broken and doesn't get into things she shouldn't Her ideal home: An active family with a fenced yard. She likes adventures and shows potential of being a great sporting dog (agility, lure coursing, fly ball, etc) All and all shes a FABULOUS girl. One of my favorites. Delinda is adorable. Full of energy so would enjoy a family that is active. She likes everyone she meets. She walks nicely on a leash. Delinda was used as the dog tester in the shelter. She has done playtime with females and males with success. It takes a little bit for her to feel comfortable as when the dogs crowded her she would growl as she became nervous and uncomfortable. With slower introductions as she seems fearful of new dogs there should be no issues as she played chase with a young female shepherd and a hyper female hound. Delinda rides nicely in the car, she will curl up in the seat and enjoy the ride. Available for adoption anywhere in the US or Canada with transport provided

Story
Gypsy and Skylar, a bonded pair are ready to find their perfect home. Gypsy, the Old English Bulldog is 1-1/2 years old and 46 pounds. Skylar, the Boston Terrier is 2 years old and 17 pounds. Both are neutered and UTD on vaccines. They were not house trained when they came to us, but both are improving with the ongoing training. If they are taken outside on a regular schedule, accidents do not occur. They do great on a leash and love car rides. Both are kennel trained. As far as energy levels; Skylar is a go-go (full of energy) and Gypsy is a slow-go (couch potato). Skylar, in true Boston fashion, loves to run, jump and play with toys but when she’s ready for bed, she’s a snuggle bug. Gypsy, in true Bulldog fashion, enjoys leisurely walks and laying on the couch while chewing her favorite toy. Both are great with children as long as they’re old enough to withstand dogs that jump. They also get along with other dogs, but cats; not so much. Both girls are super chewers and need a variety of toys that cannot be easily destroyed. Dog beds are not a safe choice for the dynamic duo and only blankets should be used. Both sit on command and are very food/treat motivated. A fenced yard is required since Skylar will run and chase anything that moves. Gypsy and Skyler are the sweetest girls and have never met a human they won’t lick. They have a lot of love to give and would do best in a home where they are not left alone for long periods. This wonderful bonded pair is fostered in Kearneysville, WV. If you meet their requirements and feel you are the right family for them, email odbtr1@gmail.com or bostonlover02@comcast.net to request a Word or PDF format application. Please note, we will not respond to inquiries about them until we have your application on file.

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.March 4, 2025, 12:35 pm
