Story
Blondie is one of those little dogs who reminds you that sometimes, all a dog really wants is someone to belong to. This petite Schnoodle (Schnauzer/Poodle mix) came from a senior couple's home where an overpopulation of dogs had grown from unplanned breeding. Critter Cavalry Rescue was asked to help five of these special little dogs find the kind of homes where their personalities could truly shine, and Blondie is ready to find her person.This girl is happiest when she is close to her humans. If you are working at your desk, she will settle at your feet. If you are relaxing on the couch, she would much rather be in your lap. She has a gentle, affectionate nature and a happy little spirit that makes her easy to love. She has also discovered the joy of toys and enjoys playing with her foster sister, but she is wonderfully willing to share and let the other dog take the lead. A friendly canine companion would be a wonderful addition to her new home, helping her continue to build confidence while giving her a buddy to play with. Blondie is a smart little girl who catches on quickly. Her foster mom says she learned to sit for treats and meals in about two minutes, and she has adjusted beautifully to the routine in her foster home. She is crate trained, has good potty habits when kept on a regular schedule, and happily heads into her crate at bedtime for a treat before sleeping peacefully until morning. Because she can struggle a little when separated from her people, having her crate located in her foster's bedroom would help her feel secure.> Now, Blondie does have a few talents that make her more than just a pretty face. She can clear a three-foot gate like it is a minor inconvenience if she thinks her people are on the other side! She will also take advantage of an opening in a fence if given the opportunity, so secure fencing and a little extra attention to doorways and exits are important. She has a touch of watchdog in her, too, and may let you know when another dog gets a little too close to her yard. She is curious about cats and is learning that the resident kitty has certain boundaries that are not up for negotiation. And yes, she has occasionally helped herself to a shoe or two, although she has been kind enough not to chew them up!Blondie is a devoted little companion who wants to be part of your everyday life. She doesn't need a grand adventure every day or a house full of activity. She needs a loving person, a predictable routine, a little patience as her confidence grows, and ideally a friendly dog sibling to share life's little pleasures with. In return, you will have a sweet shadow who wants nothing more than to be wherever you are. P.S. she is good with cats too!If Blondie sounds like the little companion your home has been missing, please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com. Mention where you live when inquiring. .November 15, 2026, 5:52 am
