Story

Meet Alice, our darling brown and white girl that has the most memorable face and sky high ears you have ever seen. This girl was born around the middle of May and is thought to be combination of lots of breed influences. For starters we think that Cattle Dog and Aussie might be a mixture that are dominant for her. She is one smart little girl that adorable her foster family and all the other big dogs (several German Shepherds are her mentors and big sisters) and many foster cats are present as well in the home. Her boundless happy puppy energy catapults her through the days as she grows in to a true beauty inside and out. She is so playful and loving and always ready for the next BIG ADVENTURE! She loves to chase toys and explore the backyard for new things to do and maybe a few squirrels to make friends with. She absorbs whatever you teach her like a sponge. Her foster mom is an excellent trainer and knows the importance of teaching manners and commands. Her friendly nature makes her easy to meet new people and she is does not shy away from new experiences either. She is a snuggler when she is tired and very loving as she sits beside you to watch a good TV show. This girl will be an excellent recall pup since she is learning that now and is so eager to please and be with her humans. If you are interested in this beauty who will grow to be a 45-50 pound girl, please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com Let us know where you live: city and state when you are inquiring.

Story

Hi, everyone. My name is Special Stella, and I am a beloved, fun, well-trained 5 year old Yellow Lab/Aussie mix girl that is only 50 pounds and who is looking for a new home without young children. I have been with my young couple, mom and dad.For the past four years, and I have been very happy and loved.And during that time, it was discovered that young energetic children made me nervous. Now my mom and dad are having a baby and they say it would be best if I went to a home with no young young children and yeah, would be best.If I was the only dog unless I lived with a submissive male, that would not challenge me to be the top dog. I have lived with a cat and my only bad habit is I love cat food. I am housebroken and crate, trained and leash trained, and I know commands. And I am a very good girl. That will be your buddy, rick riding around town and your suv or a pickup truck or going out on the lake in the boat for the summer months. I'm really a good girl, but I just have 2 things that I probably do. Don't meet in my life and that is a dominant dog around me and young children. That are you being what god made them to be, young, energetic and loud and sometimes a little too quick to make movements that make me nervous. We are all heartbroken that I have to find a new home. Critter Cavalry promised my Dad, who originally adopted me just to be his buddy before he got married, that they would help me find the perfect place for me to live out the next ten years or more of my life. I promise to be the best companion you've ever had. Please consider me to come and live with you and watch TV. At your feet or go for hikes. In the woods or just take naps in the afternoon on a lazy Winter day. I am fully vetted and microchipped and come with great dog manners and very few bad habits. Unless you have a cat and I try to eat their food. Please consider me and write to Critter.Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com. Tell them where you live: city and state. They are based in Tennessee and not only adoot to Tennessee, but also transport to 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.

Australian Shepherd

Size

Details

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Our pretty girl is called Koya and she is about 10 months old and weighs 32 pounds and appears to be a small Aussie mix girl with such a beautiful smile and soft luxurious coat of shiny black and tan and white fur. This girl has not spent much of her early life with other dogs and is learning how to play with them and to respect boundaries of others. She is wonderful in the foster home with the young 6 year old active boy and she is accepting the cats in the home and showing them space and respect when she approaches them. This girl is really a compact little beauty that will need a medium amount of exercise and a good and consistent training program will be the best for her as she gets older. This little girl was found as a stray and taken to a small town shelter in Middle Tennessee. She was cowering in the corner of her kennel and one of the director of the shelter begged Critter Cavalry Rescue to try and find a foster to put her in to our foster program. She is learning to find a calm state of mind and to find her wonderful smile again. This girl is working on crate and house training. She came to us on March 4th and so she is brand new to learning her best dog manners. This girl is going to make someone a wonderful and loving jewel to raise and make her part of your family life. She needs a consistent homelife and patient people to help her find her best groove in life. If you are interested please email us at ccrtennessee@gmail.com We transport weekly out of state to the northeast and also adopt to Tennessee and surrounding southern areas.

Story

Our litter of 6 puppies are named after royalty and we feel that they deserve a special life that is fit for a royal family. This handsome soft and fuzzy boy is called Prince Louie and he is a Shepherd and Lab mix boy that is 20 lbs. and was born around December 1st 2024. He lived outside in a small makeshift pen for the first 12 weeks of his life. Critter Cavalry Rescue took in 6 pups who consisted of 2 female and 4 males. All of them are sweet and friendly and going to be very easy going, fun puppies to raise to become smart adults. Prince Louie is all boy his foster mom Jodi, says. He is very people oriented which is amazing since he has not been in our care but since March 4th. Louie is a puppy that loves to cuddle and be loved on. Recently at a Puppy Yoga class at the YMCA, he went from person to person greeting them with easy attention and occasionally kisses. He is fearless and inquisitive and working on his crate training skills since he has never experienced a crate. He is getting used to what outside potty breaks are all about and he is the softest boy with bunny rabbit feeling fur. Prince Louie will be a 60+ boy when fully grown. He is primarily a shiny black with the right accents of white on his chest and his toes. He is very active and playful and like most boy puppies, he runs and plays HARD. Housetraining is in progress. He is a fun puppy that plays well with other dogs and loves everyone he meets. He tries to show dominance a lot with the female sister and the foster mom’s female adult dog. He is flexing his muscles. He will probably be the leader of the pack in a new home if there are other dogs. It will be important to keep this boy socialized with other dogs as he grows up and to teach him not to have everything his way. Always important with confident dogs who love to control things. Funny story…At yoga he picked up someone’s keys attached to their wallet and took off running through the crowd. He has some mischief in his soul. Made everyone laugh. If you are interested in this boy please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com PLEASE NOTE: Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.

We are calling them "Border Bullies"! Mama is a Border Collie, dad is a Pit Bull! I cannot imagine how smart these pups will be! They were born on October 13th.

Story

There are special dogs in this world. You know them when you meet them. Just like people,Kaye they are all special for their own reasons. Our blue eyed Kaye is a former mama dog that had several litters before she was two years old. Down in a very rural area of Tennessee, we had apparently helped an earlier litter get adopted out after they were found on an isolated country highway. They looked exactly like her, but yet we did not know who or where she was yet. Six months later, Kaye was discovered by an older couple that had found the previous puppies, and she was very pregnant again. We are adopting those puppies out now and they are precious like their mom. Blue Eyed Kaye probably had never had fun in her life until she came in to our foster care. Now she's having the time of her life. She's able to play and be loved and have fun. Being a stray for most of your life and having litter after litter of puppies with nowhere to go, is pretty sobering. Her beautiful blue eyes now dance with joy and delight as she plays with the resident foster dog who is half her size. Kaye is a Border Collie, Aussie and Pointer mix. She is around two years old and 47 pounds. This girl learned the doggy door within hours of arrival and she definitely hates crates. GOOD NEWS IS.... when left out during the day, she does not destroy a thing. She is very respectful. This girl has just the right energy for playfulness, and then chill time. She loves all creatures and would be a great family companion who would be wonderful with children. She can live with other dogs or cats. Or she could be a single family pet. All Kaye wants is love. If you have all the special ingredients for making her life the most fairy tale ending ever, please write to Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com. She is ready for her Prince Charming family to come along and sweep her off her feet. PLEASE NOTE: Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.
