Story
A very handsome dog, Linus is a great dog we really would love to keep, but due to work and travel schedules we are not making him happy. Our daughter originally had him on property with lots of room. He had a blast there, but he and his buddy dog, Lucy, were more than she could handle with her small family. We thought we could make it work, but he would be happier with a little more attention. He rarely barks, sheds just a little hair (requires trimming) and loves to be petted, loved, and played with. He'll follow you from room to room and look at you with his very sad eyes. He's always been very loyal and protective, but gentle; especially with kids and babies. He is trained for invisible fence and stays close by the house. He’s good at chasing the ball and loves to go for walks and sniff the neighborhood. Linus was just groomed with a trim and all shots. He is nervous around other dogs and at the groomers, but once he gets to know you (or neighbor dogs) is very friendly.

Story
Kara is a sweet but anxious and reactive girl. She needs lots of exercise and someone who can work on training her to be less reactive around other people. I am not able to give her the time she deserves and I have not been successful in training her. She is gaining weight because she is not getting the regular walks she needs to stay healthy. She does react to strangers, especially men, and she shows signs of aggressiveness (hackles up, growling, nipping) but she has not hurt anyone, yet. I adore her but I want her to have a home where she gets lots of attention and exercise and someone who can help her with her anxiety and reactivity. I have a personalized harness and two crates to go with her as well. She is about 3 years old, up to date in shots and in good health though starting to get a bit overweight. She seems to have some pretty serious trauma in her past so I want to find a good home that will give her the love and attention she deserves.

Wags is my moms dog. Shes elderly and he’s high energy as he is a puppy. Hes good with kids and other dogs. Im not sure about cats as hes never been around one. He is a toy Aussie and super friendly and sweet. Hes had little to no command training but he is crate and house trained. He has knocked my mom down several times as she is either on a walker or a cane at all times and he likes to jump. We just want him to go to a family that will love him and can have fun with all of his energy.

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 ccrtennessee@gmail.com   Let us know where you live: city and state when you are inquiring. 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.December 17, 2024, 12:55 pm

Story
Meet Archer, a puppy who had a rough start in life but hopefully will never know any more bad times. We don't really know much about his past but he acts as though people were not kind to him. Archer is learning that not everyone is mean and he is now enjoying learning about life! He is in our jail program and the girls in there are helping to bring him out of his shell. This sweet soul embodies gentleness and calmness, making him the perfect companion for those seeking a serene presence in their lives. Archer may be shy and a bit timid at first, but once he warms up to you, he's all about giving and receiving affection. He's a mellow pup who would love nothing more than to spend his days in the comfort of a loving home. With his tender nature, Archer is sure to bring a soothing ambiance to any household. Adopt Archer and experience the joy of unconditional love and companionship. If you'd like to add Archer to your family please visit our website at www.goofyfootrescue.org and fill out an online application. Archer is in foster care in West TN and will be transported once his adoption is finalized

Story
What we know about Rusty is that his owner passed away and he was extremely sad and confused in the shelter, but has really warmed up with us and his fosters so we are so glad to see that! He seems good with other dogs and cats and does well. He is very overweight and needs to lose probably around 20lbs so his new family must be on board with continuing on his weight loss journey because it seems to be negatively affecting his ability to walk any distance, etc. He has already lost some since he has been with his fosters and we have already seen an increase in his activity level so we think this guy wants to be an active boy! Rusty was seen by the vet and thankfully they do not think his walking issues stem from an injury or issue, but from having to deal with the large amount of extra weight that he carries, but, like we mentioned, he has gotten better since he has started to lose the weight so yay for that! He has been on a pain med to help with any pain but it is very possible that as he loses more weight that his pain and discomfort will decrease and we could see the meds going down. Rusty is just an incredibly sweet guy but needs some extra help with his wellness journey but he is definitely ready to find his forever home!November 4, 2024, 1:26 pm
