Story
Meet Maestro, a resilient soul with a heart twice the size of his (admittedly adorable) face. After a bit of a rocky start in life, Maestro has emerged as a devoted companion who lives for his people—just one look in his direction is enough to get his tail wagging. Whether you’re looking for a focused "coworker" to nap at your feet while you work or a cheerful partner for a neighborhood stroll, Maestro is your guy. Don’t let that sweet face fool you, though—this boy is exceptionally bright! He has been a star with his training basics, but he’s the type of "smart" that requires a job to do; if his mind isn't engaged, he’ll happily find his own (likely mischievous) fun. He is making wonderful progress with his crate training, potty training, and leash manners, though he’ll look to his forever family to help him polish those skills as he grows. Due to his early history, Maestro can be particular about sharing his food and his favorite humans. While he is friendly when meeting other dogs out and about, he may be best as an only dog who prefers not to share his kingdom. Maestro is ready to be your new best friend.

Story
Rockstar Ms. Riley Ray didn’t get her name by accident — she earned it with heart, resilience, and a spirit that refuses to fade. This stunning 8-year-old purebred Border Collie has lived a life that didn’t quite match the energy she was born with. Adopted as a puppy by a loving older couple, Riley grew up surrounded by affection but very little structure. Long days indoors, extra bites of fast food and table scraps, and almost no exercise slowly took a toll. By the time her elderly parents entered nursing care, Riley had reached an unhealthy 81 pounds — a heavy weight for a dog meant to run free. Critter Cavalry Rescue stepped in and promised Riley and the family that her story wouldn’t end there. Since arriving, she has begun her comeback tour. Beneath the extra pounds is the bright, athletic, ball-obsessed girl she was always meant to be. Riley lives for fetch. The moment a ball appears, her eyes light up and her whole body comes alive. It’s as if she’s saying, “This is who I really am.” She is affectionate, loyal, incredibly smart, and still has so much joy and drive left to give. Riley is searching for an active home that understands Border Collies and will help her continue her health journey. She doesn’t want to sit on the sidelines anymore — she wants to run, chase, play, and finally live the life her breed was built for. Her past may have slowed her down, but it never dimmed her spark. Now she’s ready for the next chapter, one filled with movement, purpose, and a human who will see the Rockstar she truly is.  Contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com if you are interested 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.comJanuary 19, 2026, 6:56 pm

Story
He has no behavioral issues, at least hasn’t show them to me and my partner. He nips when he’s excited. He knows sit, paw, down, stay, come, crate, we’ve been working on the off and place commands and he understands them sometimes but we have been very busy and haven’t been able to drill those in. He also does pull on leash and so much so that he has escaped his collar a few times but I never chase after him and simply give a firm come command and he comes back. He is potty trained, when he has to use the bathroom he will stand by the door and look at it and he will stand on his two back legs and scratch at it. He is neutered but we have not been able to take him to the vet yet to get his heart worm and flee prevention pills. He is a shelter rescue that we got a bit over a month ago and I am sad we have to part. I recommend whoever adopts him has a decent sized yard or a lot of free time in order to give him the exercise he needs. He’s a good boy with a lot of energy and a big heart.

Story
This pup is eligible for our Test the Couch program — a 7-day trial adoption to see if your home (and your couch) is the perfect fit. Learn more  https://pipsrescue.org/test-the-couch/ Sasha the Snuggle-Pup – “Fluffy, Fun, and Full of Personality!” By: CozyDogMom Wow. Just wow. Sasha has the softest, floofiest coat I’ve ever experienced—like hugging a cloud that wants to play fetch. She’s goofy in the best way and is always game for an adventure (or a nap). Highly recommend if you’re looking for a cuddle buddy with a dash of sass!   Trick-Learning Prodigy – “Smart, silly, and training like a champ.” By: FirstTimePupTrainer Sasha picks up on commands FAST. She’s eager to please and super treat-motivated. We’re working on “sit,” “stay,” and “don’t chew the shoe,” and she’s nailing it. She does test boundaries (toddler energy!), but with consistency, she thrives. If you love training sessions, she’s your girl.   Best with Big-Dog Buddies – ½ “Loves confident canine companions—but no cats, please.” By: PackLeaderVibes Sasha truly shines around other confident dogs her size or bigger. She takes cues from them beautifully and gains confidence quickly. But homes with cats or small dogs? Not her vibe. She’s got a big personality and needs friends who can match her energy.   Kid-Friendly-ish – “Great with older kids, not for toddlers.” By: DogDadWithTeens Sasha adores kids—but younger ones might find her a bit too clever for comfort! She does best with older children who can stick to consistent commands and not let her sneak an extra treat (or three). Think “fun-loving puppy meets tiny lawyer.”   All the Essentials Included – “Vaccinated, spayed, and ready to move in.” By: ReadyToAdopt Fully vetted, spayed, and healthy—this pup is as turnkey as they come. No assembly required (unless you count assembling a toy collection for her). Sasha is absolutely adoption-ready!   Final Verdict: A Must-Adopt! – “She’s not just a good dog—she’s a great dog.” By: FutureBestFriend If you’re looking for a sweet, smart, fun-loving pup who thrives on affection and structure, Sasha is the perfect pick. No cats, no tiny dogs—but tons of love and laughter guaranteed. ##2056176##
