Story
  This inquisitive boy with the beautiful black scruffy face and Lab-style body is ready to steal someone’s heart.  Ben is just 9 months old, weighs about 35 pounds, and will likely mature into a perfect 45–50 pound adult — the ideal “not too big, not too small” size for just about any home. Ben and his sister Jerri (yes… Ben & Jerri ) were recently rescued from a rural shelter in Tennessee after being removed from a severely neglected situation where too many animals and too little food were the norm. What’s remarkable is that you would never know it. There is no fearfulness, no shutdown behavior, no emotional baggage — just a happy, bright, affectionate boy puppy who is thrilled to finally be noticed. Ben absolutely craves personal attention, and when you give it to him, he is so very happy and giddy almost. He is eager to please, highly food motivated, and going to be a dream to train. He’s already walking nicely on leash despite having almost no prior experience, which speaks volumes about her intelligence and willingness to learn. He’s playful, affectionate, and soaking up structure and routine like a sponge.   His look is unforgettable.  He has that wiry, scruffy coat you can’t stop petting, with adorable chin whiskers that give him a touch of Irish Wolfhound charm. When the sun hits his sleek black coat, it shines beautifully. He’s the kind of dog people stop and ask about. Ben is working on crate training and is mostly housebroken with only the occasional puppy mishap — all part of adjusting to a new life filled with stability and love. His future is incredibly bright. All he needs now is someone to choose him.  What does he promise in return? Loyalty. Gratitude. A whole-hearted kind of love that only a rescued dog can give. If you’re ready to give Ben the forever home he deserves, please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com. Be sure to tell us where you live when inquiring. We adopt to Tennessee residents and also transport to the northeastern corridor of states.  Ben is ready and waiting..   ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.

Story
Meet Rafael!!Do you long for a canine companion who appreciates a good nap over a marathon run? Then look no further than Rafael, our distinguished senior gentleman! This small (19 lbs), Carin Terrier mix has mastered the art of relaxation. Rafael comes pre-programmed with all the best doggie manners (he’s had 8 years to practice!) and he’s not about that “chewing your shoes” life. He’s more of a “snuggle on the couch and watch reality TV” kind of guy. If you’re looking for a low-maintenance, high-cuddle companion Rafael is your man. He’s ready to retire to a life of luxury… preferable at your house! He is house trained and good with other dogs.Before and after his grooming! He looks so much better and a little cooler!Available dogs are met by pre-approved adopters ONLY after a match is made.The application is the first step.
