My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

 We have a story to tell about this wonderful 5-6 year old, 70 pound Shepherd mix girl that most rescues would have turned their back on and walked away when the owner wanted to return her.  She is a dog,  that through the love of a wonderful and gifted foster, was able to come back from the deep fears that somehow her adopter left unaddressed and unanswered when Heidi was first adopted and needed some understanding and work.  She was adopted as an older and shy pup who was almost a year old and for 3 years we thought all was fine.  But it was not.  When she was returned we found her shutdown, scared, skittish and not able to let you hardly touch her.  We were heartbroken to see her this way.  She was a soul that we needed to reach because she needed to be brought back to a place of trust and acceptance of the love that humans had for her.  Now… this wonderful dog is blooming confidently under the love and reassurance of her foster mom Hailey, who knew just how to reach her mind and soul.  Now here is what her foster mom says about her.  “Happy Heidi is the biggest sweetheart you could have around. She gets along well with dogs of all sizes and loves the 2 year old in the foster home. She is very curious with the cats, but typically leaves them alone. She is a little timid upon first meeting new people, but with some treats and a few pats on the head, she will become your new best friend quickly. Heidi walks well on a leash if she is with a confident handler and happily she loves car rides. She will match the energy level in the home and play while her humans do chores, or relax on the floor at the end of the day. She is house broken, very well crate trained, and lays down gladly to receive a good brush out!   She is a Shepherd mix girl with maybe some Great Pyr in her.  She is uniquely made inside and out and she is  lover girl that deserves a kind home where she can make her people the most important humans on the planet.  If you are interested, please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com  She already has her PJ’s all ready to go to come spend the night forever at YOUR HOUSE!

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.
