Story
Sadly, nice guys really do finish last.Haverly's been at Animal Aid for nearly six months, and we're beginning to suspect the problem is that he's too polite for his own good.He’s 6, about 70 pounds, housetrained, wonderful on a leash, has excellent house manners, and has happily lived with young children and other dogs.Most people expect a shelter dog to conduct an adoption interview by throwing himself into their lap, licking their tonsils, and announcing, “YOU. I HAVE SELECTED YOU. WE LEAVE NOW.”Haverly has a different approach.He comes over, says hello, walks around and sniffs a little. He gives you some space. In dog language, this is an enormous compliment. Haverly is being calm, respectful, and polite.Unfortunately, humans are terrible at dog language.So people visit him, spend a few minutes together, and leave thinking, “I don’t think he likes me.”NO!!! He likes you. He's just trying very, very hard not to blow the interview.So, stay awhile. Give Haverly time to realize, Wait - You WANT me over there?And suddenly the professional demeanor collapses.Then he’s leaning against you, snuggling, and staring up at you like you are quite possibly the finest human ever manufactured.Haverly doesn’t give his heart away in the first five minutes, but once he understands that you want it, you get all of it.He has a reason for being careful. Years ago, we thought we’d found Haverly his forever family. They thought he was perfect, too.Then they moved.Instead of taking him with them - or returning him to Animal Aid, as promised - they left him with someone... who left him with someone else...Eventually, Haverly ended up alone in a regional shelter.Fortunately, thanks to his microchip, we got him back.So if you come to meet him, don’t mistake good manners for indifference. Give this very polite gentleman permission to fall in love with you.Please share Haverly’s story. Somewhere out there is the person or family he’s been waiting for - and after nearly six months, it’s time the nice guy finally finished first.Haverly is at Animal Aid Society, 80 Butler Farm Road, Hampton, VA. Visiting hours are 9 a.m. to noon daily, including weekends and holidays.Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm. Hope to see you soon!PLEASE NOTE: Animal Aid Society observes a 40 mile adoption radius to facilitate post adoption support and follow ups.

Story
Meet Major!Major is a lovable 6-month-old Boxer mix looking for his forever home. He was recently surrendered after his owner experienced landlord issues, and now he’s ready for a fresh start.When Major arrived, he was in pretty poor condition and underweight. He’ll need some good nutrition and care to help him fill out, and once he does, he’s going to be absolutely stunning! Even now, his goofy charm and bright personality shine through.If you’re looking for a puppy who truly deserves a good, loving home—and who might make you laugh with his silly antics—come meet Major! He’s eager to grow, learn, and become the wonderful companion he’s meant to be.

Story
Fred is a wonderful dog who I adopted when I was fostering him. He’s very sweet, loves all other animals and kids. He’s a gentle giant. We just had a huge expense happen that I couldn’t have known when I adopted him so I need to find a new home unfortunately. He has to take some anxiety meds but could be weaned off with a vet and hip meds indefinitely. They are rather low cost through the vet or an online website like Dutch.

Story
Meet Layla,A sweet and loving girl who loves to be outside so she can play! Layla is very active so she would do best in a home that can keep up with her energy. She would need daily exercise, preferably a fenced in area where she can run/roam around freely, but a good walk and playtime with her will also help. Layla is potty trained/crate trained and also great with other dogs and people of all ages. If you feel you could be a match for Layla, fill out an application so you can interact with her!

Story
Meet Hope — a beautiful Boxer girl who has already overcome so much and is finally ready for the happy ending she deserves. ❤️Hope is a 7-year-old purebred Boxer, but please don’t let that number fool you. This girl has the heart, energy, and playful spirit of a much younger Boxer. She bounces, prances, dances, and barrels through life with a zest that is impossible not to smile at. She is the kind of dog whose happiness is contagious.Hope came to Critter Cavalry Rescue during a heartbreaking time. Her beloved owner became critically ill and was ultimately unable to care for her, and when Hope came into rescue, she weighed only 35 pounds and was painfully underweight. Her owner’s greatest wish was that she would be given the best life possible, and that is exactly the promise we made to him.Today, Hope is a healthy 46 pounds and absolutely thriving in her foster home. She is currently living with several other Boxers and has fit right in as though she has always been part of the crew. She is wonderfully social and genuinely enjoys making friends. Dogs, children, adults — if you are willing to be her friend, Hope is ready to love you!Hope is also a very good girl in the house. She is completely potty trained, knows her basic commands, and is so well mannered that she does not need to be crated when left home alone. She is easygoing, affectionate, and responds well to gentle guidance.But what really makes Hope special is her spirit. She has been through a major life change, yet she has come through it with her joyful personality completely intact. She still believes the world is a wonderful place and that every day is an opportunity to play, explore, and love someone new.Hope would love an active Boxer-loving family who will give her plenty of playtime, attention, and opportunities to enjoy life. Another dog who appreciates a playful companion would be wonderful, especially one who doesn’t mind her endless Boxer enthusiasm!Hope has spent enough time waiting for her tomorrow. Now she needs the forever family who will give her the bright future her name promises. She is fully vetted, microchipped, thriving, and ready to make the next chapter of her life the very best one yet.If you think Hope could be the joyful, energetic Boxer girl your family has been waiting for, please email 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.comOctober 4, 2026, 5:19 pm

Story
She came to us in pretty rough shape. But in her 180 days with us, Cinderella has been transformed. And now we need your help to finish the best part of her story.Cinderella came to us with two very large cherry eyes. Her skin was a mess. And she would get a bit too interested in some of the other dogs, specifically, the smaller dogs.She had surgery on her eyes and they look amazing. Her skin is glowing - it is just beautiful now. And, thanks to a volunteer taking her home for an extended period of time, she has been calmer around other dogs and she was the perfect house guest.So now we need to give this 7-year-old girl the best possible ending for the rest of her amazing years. She needs a home where she is the only star there. She is good with kids, but she is also built low and gets exited, so older kids would work best with her.When she was in a home with our volunteer, her favorite thing to do was lay on her bed, on her back, and scooch all over the place. If she has a stuffed Kong, she is in heaven. She truly has the sweetest disposition and she just adores being with people. She loves car rides and she is a champ at the vet.If you are looking for a very loyal companion, who will think you hung the moon, please come meet Cinderella. She deserves the chance to have it all.You can meet Cinderella and all of her friends every single day from 9am-12pm, at 80 Butler Farm Road in Hampton!Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm. Hope to see you soon!PLEASE NOTE: Animal Aid Society observes a 40 mile adoption radius to facilitate post adoption support and follow ups.

Story
Casanova is in a FOSTER home while he waits for his FOREVER home. Please email PRAS-FOSTER@NNVA.GOV if you would like to meet him!Hi, I’m Casanova, your future best friend! I may be a little shy at first, but I’m learning that people can be pretty wonderful. In my foster home, I’ve been slowly coming out of my shell and showing more of my sweet personality.I enjoy leisurely walks, cozy evenings, and—once I’m comfortable—plenty of cuddles. I’m looking for a patient person who will give me the time I need to build confidence and advocate for my space while I learn to trust.I am nervous around men, so I’ll need an understanding owner who’s willing to work with me at my pace. I may be best placed with a female adopter or a family with other friendly, confident dogs who can help show me the ropes.If you’re willing to let me open up gently and gradually, I’ll be ready to fill your days with loyalty, love, and lots of wonderful memories.Maybe my forever home is with you?

Story
Chupie is in a FOSTER home while she waits for her FOREVER home! If you would like to schedule a meet with her, please reach out to PRAS-FOSTER@NNVA.GOV.Chupie is a goofy, playful girl who is always ready for some fun! She loves playing with other dogs, chewing on a good bone, and running around outside. She would do best with an active family who can keep up with her energy and give her plenty of opportunities to play and explore.Chupie is also a fantastic house guest. She is housebroken, does great in her crate, and even does a great job letting you know when she needs to go outside.When she`s ready to relax, Chupie has one favorite spot: on top of her people! If you don`t allow her to use you as a personal dog bed, though, she`s perfectly happy to curl up beside you on the couch.Chupie enjoys playing with other dogs and has done well with her foster siblings. She can be a little overwhelming during playtime because of her energy and enthusiasm, so any canine roommate should be a patient playmate who can handle her exuberance. Her previous foster homes have done really well with her!Chupie is also working through some skin issues. We`re getting her the care she needs and her hair is already growing back quickly. Her adopter should be able and willing to do long term care as she may have environmental allergies (not abnormal for out APBT friends).If you`re looking for a fun-loving, active, goofy girl who will keep you laughing and on the move, Chupie could be your girl!
