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
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
Hi there! I’m Jynx, a 3-year-old mix (maybe pit/boxer?) with soft fawn fur, adorable white socks, and a personality as lovable as my look. If you’re searching for a snuggle buddy and an outdoor adventurer wrapped into one, I might be your perfect match. I love lounging for cuddles as much as I enjoy zooming around the yard and playing tug with ropes and toys. Life hasn’t always been easy, but I adjusted quickly to my cozy new home after being rescued right before Christmas—and what a gift that was! Now, I’m thriving and soaking up all the love and fun that comes my way. I am working on dog relationships as there was a dog I did not get along with well in my previous foster home. For now, we will try to find me a home as the only dog until I can work on being comfortable around other dogs. I’m gentle and curious around cats. I would do fine to meet kids but will not be allowed to live with kids because I can be nervous and lack confidence at times. I’m house-trained, and leash-trained. I don’t like being crated but behave well when unmonitored outside of the crate. I’m also spayed, vaccinated, heartworm negative, and ready to brighten your life with my goofy, loving energy. Since I can be a bit of a barker, I wouldn’t be suited for apartment living. I’m currently in Hampton Roads, VA, but I’d happily make the journey to find my forever home (transport fees apply).

Story
Hi there, I'm Vega, a 7-year-old, 70-pound, brindle and white boxer. I'm looking for a forever home with someone who can keep up with me and love me unconditionally. I'm an extremely loving, smart and adventurous boy, who enjoys playing, running, and exploring. I'm also very smart and eager to please, especially if you have some treats for me. I'm neutered, vaccinated, and heartworm negative, so I'm ready to go whenever you are. I have a ton of drive which makes me super fun to work with and my foster mom says I’d be amazing at dog sports of any kind because of how much I like to work. My foster mom can explain more but I need a firm owner who will work me and take me on adventures because I am no couch potato. I am dog selective needing slow intros to other dogs. I should not be around cats or other small animals because of my high prey drive. I do well with kids but best with older kids because of my size and energy. I can be crate reactive and have some barrier frustration, but I’ve been learning to improve my behavior here and am doing so much better. I also need more work on leash training, as I pull hard. Devices like gentle leaders may help me learn how to walk better on leash. I have a lot of love to give. I'm very passionate and loyal to anyone I bond with. I bond quickly and can’t wait to make friends with you! I love being petted and cuddled. I'm a relatively quiet pup, and I calm well when my exercise needs are met. I'm being fostered in Hampton Roads, VA but I can be transported out of state if you're the one for me. So, what do you say? Are you ready to meet your new best friend? I'm waiting for you. Fill out an application today and we will get the process started! *Must be 21 or older to apply.

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
