Story
I’m headed off to the Military and unfortunately, I can longer keep him. He is very sweet and loves people. He is almost 5 years old and is very energetic. It recommended he has a backyard though he is crate trained and doesn’t mind the crate for a little bit. He’s never been aggressive and is a big licker. He always wants to play and is just happy to have a home. I’ve had him since he was 5 months. I’m all he’s really known his whole life. He’s not picky about food. He will eat anything just about. I just want a good home for him and somebody who has time for him.

Charlie is 6 years old and the most loving and happiest dog in the world. He has lots of energy and loves being outside. He has been with me since he was a little puppy. I got him when I was a freshman in college. We grew up together. Unfortunately I’m having to rehome Charlie due to being a newly single mom at 6 months pregnant. I want him to go to a good home hopefully with a fenced in back yard. He has been an apartment dog his entire life so it’s okay if that is the case. He will be your best friend and cuddle you every night in bed. He loves bones and squeaky toys. He is great with other animals.

Story
This handsome 4.5 month old puppster is called Boy George and he is what you would call….a character.  A Border Collie mix puppy who is smart and mischievous and a leader in life.  He was born in a litter of 8 puppies around the middle of October and he was the biggest kid in the bunch. He is laidback yet very much an involved pup when it comes to creating dog events that are fun and inquisitive.  He is one that doesn’t back down because he knows that he can win the challenge with his tenacity.  Boy George has conquered all the obligations in his life to learn about housebreaking, crate time and how to walk on a leash with at least a B- rating.  Practice will make perfect when in a family that has more one on one time for him.  He is going to be a 55 pound boy once he is grown.  His Mom is Blue Eyed Kaye and she is a wonderful girl with a happy demeanor and has certainly passed it along to all her sweet offspring.  Boy George is a good pup but he is looking for an even smarter owner that will figure him out before he slips one in on you. He is loving and can be an attention grabber because when you are raised in a pack of 8 siblings, you kind of crave some private time for yourself.  Boy George will be a fun pup to raise and one that will excel at puppy training classes.  At 18 weeks of age and 32 pounds, he is a great size to take on car rides, walks on a trail or  your local neighborhood.  He will welcome new dogs and people to meet and did we mention that he LOVES CATS!   To our Boy George they are just another friend in life!   We will require a home with a securely fenced yard so that this boy can explore and hang out in the great outdoors/backyard.  He is not a digger and he is not a fence climber.  But he is a dog that requires the stimulation both physically and mentally every day.  Teach him things and he will make you a proud dog owner. Someone is looking for a dog like this.  Maybe an only dog in the home or just a great addition because he will be play buddies with anyone.  But always know that you must be the leader of your pack and Boy George.  He craves the boundaries and rules.  He thrives best not having his way and is so moldable.  If interested please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com   Mention where you live, city and state.  Transport is available to the northeast outside of Tennessee where he is being fostered 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.

REX

Border Collie Corgi

Male, Young
Franklin, TN
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
  Rex is a young dog who has already lived a lifetime’s worth of hardship—and somehow came out the other side with a gentle soul and an open heart. For much of his first year, Rex lived tied out in the woods with a homeless couple, missing out on everything a puppy should know: safety, structure, and the comfort of belonging. Now, at just barely one year old, he’s finally getting his chance at having a good life that does not include a tieout and living in the woods homeless.    This handsome Corgi mix weighs 25 pounds, with a compact, active build and a few healthy pounds still to gain. He sports the most expressive upright ears, short Corgi legs, a long body, and a gorgeous, fluffy tail reminiscent of a Border Collie. His coat is soft and flowing, and his energy is joyful and contagious once he feels safe. Rex is friendly with other dogs and naturally polite in his interactions. When meeting new people, he approaches gently with a submissive posture, ears back at first—then slowly lifting as his confidence grows. He’s still learning how to walk on a leash and is being introduced to basic commands and manners for the very first time and he’s proving to be a quick learner who genuinely wants to please. Because Rex missed out on early training, he will need an adopter who understands young dogs and enjoys helping one grow into his potential. With consistency and positive guidance, Rex could shine in agility, flyball, or other interactive dog sports. More than anything, he’s a dog who wants to work with his person and be part of a family.  Rex is ready to leave survival behind and step into a life filled with love, guidance, and belonging. If you’re looking for a loyal, family-oriented dog and are willing to help shape his future, Rex may be the one you’ve been waiting for. To learn more about adopting Rex, please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com 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.February 18, 2026, 11:55 pm

Story
We are delighted to say that during this beautiful season of renewal and friendship and family bonding, we have 8 precious little Border Collie/Aussie mix puppies that are looking for a fresh and forever start to their life. Born about the middle of October to a beautiful Aussie mix mom, these babies were fortunately taken in by a senior couple who nurtured them for 7 weeks.  Now these precious beauties are in individual foster homes and learning so much as they grow.  5 boys and 3 girls.  They are handled and cuddled so much!  No fear issues have touched their spirit!   Mom is a 45 pound white and black beauty and we expect each of these smart pups to be in the 45-50 pound range as an adult.  If you were interested in adopting, please right to Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com  ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.

Story
Gizmo came into our lives about 3 weeks ago. Little buddy was wandering in front of our neighborhood Publix covered in fleas and ticks with no collar or leash looking for someone to love. I asked the staff if anyone knew where or who he belonged to but no one had a clue. Giz has been staying with us temporarily since January 8 and he's been updated on his shots, heartworm negative, and been treated for fleas, ticks, and the tapeworm he had. Gizmo is an anxious chewer and if left unattended or underwhelmed he will absolutely chew whatever he can get his paws on. With that being said we've gifted him many toys, bully sticks, and chews...he goes through them quick. Through enrichment we've been able to mitigate a lot of his destructive behavior. He is an energetic boy that requires at LEAST 90 minutes of stimulation. He loves playing fetch, tug, and chase with our other dog. This 1yr old deserves a home that can give him dedicated time and attention with patience and understanding.

Dexter is an amazing protective dog. He is great with kids, however needs more attention then we are able to provide him. Without getting attention he needs he is getting spiteful, tearing things up, and peeing on things. Please be sure if you are interested in Dexter to have time to give him the love and attention he needs.
