Story
Hi, Im Ozzy! Im a sweet, thoughtful boy whos learning how wonderful the world can be. I can be a little shy at first, but once I start to feel safe, my gentle personality really shines through. Im the kind of dog who observes everything carefully, and when I gain confidence, youll see just how smart and affectionate I am. One of my favorite things in the world is going for walks and being outside. I love a nice, brisk pace and enjoy patrolling my surroundings like a true shepherd. Im off to a great start with leash skills and continue to improve every day. I stay focused on my walk and take everything in calmly, which makes our outings enjoyable and peaceful. While I enjoy treats, Im more motivated by routine, reassurance, and learning from other dogs, which really helps me blossom. Speaking of other dogs I absolutely love them. Being around canine friends brings out my playful, animated side and gives me a big boost of confidence. Ive made great progress simply by following the lead of other dogs and being part of a pack. Im also a fantastic car companion. I recently handled a long road trip like a pro quiet, calm, and happy to relax and nap after taking in the fresh air. Once Im settled, Im very easygoing and adaptable. At home, Im a quiet and well-mannered housemate. I dont bark much and enjoy having a cozy space to relax. Im continuing to learn the basics and build confidence with guidance and patience, and Im already showing how eager I am to grow. If youre looking for a gentle, intelligent dog who will thrive with another canine buddy and a loving, understanding family, I might be your guy. With the right environment and support, I know Ill continue to come out of my shell and become an incredibly loyal companion. I cannot wait to find a forever home where I can share all the love I've got to give.

Story
  If you are looking for a puppy who is sweet and full of personality, Sabrina is your girl!!!      This little girl who wants all the attention life has to offer is looking for a new home the middle of January, 2026.  After spending her early weeks surrounded by littermates, she’s decided she’s ready for love that doesn’t require competing — and she’s not shy about stepping right in front of her brother Silas to soak up every bit she can get. This purebred Norwegian Elkhound puppy was born at the end of October and weighs 12 pounds at just 9 weeks old. SHe is expected to grow to around 55 pounds when fully grown. Sabrina is confident, playful, and full of joy, with a personality that shines brighter every day. Her favorite things include running through the grass, play-wrestling, and chasing around with the other puppies in her foster home. Watching her discover toys for the first time is pure happiness — she plays with curiosity, enthusiasm, and plenty of puppy charm.   Sabrina already understands pee pads and is also learning to go outside to the grass for potty breaks. SHe is a smart girl who will thrive with continued guidance, structure, and positive reinforcement. Sabrina will be ready for an Elkhound-knowledgeable home in mid-January.  A FENCED YARD IS REQUIRED to give this active, outdoors-loving pup the safe space she needs to enjoy life. If you’re interested in Sabrina, please write to Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com.   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.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comDecember 31, 2025, 12:59 pm
