Story
Location: Powhatan, VAMeet Trudy! Trudy is a 6-year-old Border Collie mix looking for a special home to call her own. She came to us from a farm where she had plenty of freedom to roam, and she would love to find a home where she can enjoy that same kind of independence and open space. Trudy has an independent spirit and may take a little time to learn to trust new people, but once she does, you’ll see what a wonderful and loyal companion she can be. She’s not the type to be underfoot all day, but she’ll always be there when it counts, watching over her home and family. If you’re looking for a dog who enjoys her freedom and has a unique personality, Trudy might be the one for you!

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
Hi&#44 Im Earl Grey! Im a smart&#44 athletic guy with a big heart and a playful spirit. I love chasing tennis balls&#44 squeaky toys&#44 and soaking up every minute of outdoor time (especially if it includes a belly rub in the middle of a walk!). Ive got plenty of energy and enthusiasm&#44 and Im hoping to find an active home where I can be your go-to adventure buddy.<br/><br/>Id do best in a home thats a bit more low-key-one without too much hustle and bustle&#44 and with adults or older teens who understand dogs like me. Im not a fan of cats&#44 and I prefer more one-on-one time with my people rather than busy dog parks. <br/><br/>If youre an experienced&#44 dog-savvy person looking for a fun&#44 devoted companion&#44 I think we could be a perfect match. I cant wait to find my person.<br/><br/>Earl Grey qualifies for our Patient Paws special. Youll be able to name your own adoption fee!
