My story

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

 

Meet Elijah, a tiny teacup Yorkie with a soul far bigger than his 4-pound frame. Born on October 19, 2021, this silky-soft little boy is the definition of delicate sweetness. Elijah has spent much of his young life quietly waiting—waiting for lap time, gentle words, and the kind of love that makes a dog feel truly seen.

 

Though once deeply cherished, life circumstances changed for his owner, and long days crated with little attention became Elijah’s reality. With love in their heart, his owner made the selfless decision to release him to Critter Cavalry, so Elijah could finally find the attentive, devoted home he deserves.

 

Elijah is shy, tender, and incredibly gentle—a sweet little shadow who blossoms with kindness. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs, is pee-pad trained, and would do beautifully in a home where someone can continue his training with a consistent outdoor schedule. What Elijah wants most is simple: love, routine, and a warm lap to call his own.

 

As he hopes to start the new year off on the right paw, Elijah is dreaming of a forever home where he’ll never feel overlooked again. Could that be you—the person who gives him the affection, security, and quiet companionship he’s been waiting for?

 

Elijah is currently in Nashville, TN. Transport is available on January 9th to the northeastern states.

All fees cover the health certificate, transportation up to designated places for families to pick up their pre-adopted dog, spay/neuter, rabies, all shots, fecal and dewormings, microchip, complete vet check up and 4 way heartworm test if dogs are older than 8 months.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

We are a full volunteer rescue organization. All of our animals are kept in loving foster homes, receiving the best care possible. A completed application must be submitted and approved to meet with our dogs/pups. A completed application helps us determine compatibility and also helps us to ensure a successful adoption.
