Story
Mr. Fluff is a delicate little one-year-old, Deerhead mix Chihuahua weighing just 8 pounds, and who is searching for a calm, nurturing home where patience and love come first. While he is undeniably beautiful on the outside, his heart is still healing from a difficult beginning. Mr. Fluff came from a home that just could not take care of him. After one month in foster care, he has made truly remarkable progress and continues to blossom every day. In his foster home, Princess Fluff has learned that laps are safe, cuddles are wonderful, and gentle voices bring comfort. he seeks affection and enjoys being close to his people once he feels secure. Inside the home he is relaxed, playful in his own quiet way, and his sweet personality is beginning to shine through. he is still building confidence outdoors and leash walks in a fenced yard will prove to be a big confidence booster for him. Mr. Fluff would thrive in a home where his people can continue this positive exposure at his pace. Car rides and neighborhood strolls are goals we know he will enjoy as he gains confidence. Mr. Fluff would do best in a peaceful home with plenty of time and attention devoted to him. he may do well with one other calm, confident dog, but he truly wants to be someone’s special boy. Children in the home should be over the age of 10 and able to respect his gentle nature. he is crate trained and making steady progress with house training. We are being honest in saying that Mr. Fluff still has some shyness to overcome — but he is absolutely worth the patience and love it takes to help him fully bloom. If you believe you could be the safe place he’s been waiting for, please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com.  January 12, 2026, 9:04 pm

Story
Our precious little guy, Benji, is just the most darling 4 lbs. Chi/Yorkie mix puppy that you will ever find up for adoption.  There is no human that he doesn't want to be friends with and no dog that intimidates him, no matter the size.  He is living with children aged 4 to 16 and enjoys the fast-pace of his foster home with all the bigger dogs, kids and family sounds and people coming and going.  He is curious and fearless.  Recently this little guy attended a Puppy Yoga class at the YMCA with 40 people in attendance.  He raced around the huge Yoga class just having the best time being a lap buddy for a few minutes with lots of cute woman and young teens, and then running off to make another new friend!!!!!   The room was big, there were lots of people there and other bigger puppies, too who were running around.  He joined right in looking for lots of fun, lap snuggles and trying to make as many new friends in an hour as he could! This boy, Benji,  is crate trained, working on housebreaking and he is going to be your best friend and little buddy ever.  Don't hesitate ....he is ready January 15th!   To sign up and apply 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.comJanuary 12, 2026, 9:04 pm

Story
Posted December 2025 ​ Paul is a 2 yr old terrier mix weighing in at 23 lbs. He appears to be a terrier/Chihuahua/spaniel mix, but whatever his blend may be, he is cute and gentle, although still finding his confidence in the world. He and his siblings were cruelly abandoned by their owners...they moved and left them to fend for themselves (outdoors) with absolutely no regard for their well-being. We wish that was unusual in some of the southern areas where we rescue from ; 0 ( Paul is a little anxious around new dogs at first, but once he warms up, he is a great playmate. He loves playing with his sibling Mary and fellow foster friends...think "zoomies" and shenanigans! He does share a foster home with cats, and he will bark at his kitty friends if they startle him or give chase. He won’t hurt them at all but they don’t always love his idea of fun. Paul can be shy with new people at first but he can be won over with treats, gentle affection and sharing a walk or a romp outside. Once he trusts you he becomes a snuggle buddy! You'll know when Paul trusts you and bonds with you when he begins "smiling" ever so slightly. He greets his canine buddies in the same way and he'll bestow kisses upon you! Paul can be a couch potato while enjoying cuddles and attention, but also is happy to oblige with a busy active game. He would be a wonderful companion for a single person, couple or retirees. We think he’d be too lonely without another playful dog in his home so he is looking for a fun sibling in his new home This sweet pup could also join a family with with calm-natured, mature children, so our recommendation would be a family who has taught their kiddos to respect animals and be gentle with newcomers. Rambunctious youngsters would overwhelm Paul. He is such a sweet-natured guy in spite of being failed by humans. He still wants to forge bonds and be part of a family.He is so worth the gentle and gradual introduction period that he needs because you will be rewareded with a loving companion ; 0 ) ​ If you have interest in meeting Paul or any of our cuties, please fill out the adoption application. Please note: we do not have a physical facility where our dogs are housed; they are cared for in our wonderful foster network throughout New England. It is our expectation that, once approved, a potential family will meet the dog(s) in the foster setting where they are feeling safe and loved.

Story
Freddy is a very sweet, lovable 9 year old Chihuahua that was surrendered to us due to his owner going into a nursing home. He is very active and fully housebroken. Freddy loves other small dogs at his foster home and does well with the cat. He is curious, and follows her around. Freddy loves being held and loves sleeping under the covers with his foster mom and all 6 other dogs. Freddy lived with a senior woman, so we do not know about how he is with men. He seems very well socialized. He does seem blind in one eye due to a cataract, but that doesn't stop him. He was checked by our vet who has no concerns about the eye. He is very quiet and does not bark. He will take off if he is off leash, so he needs to be leashed or on a run. He would love to be with a retired couple, or senior lady and he may benefit living with another small dog. We are not sure about big dogs. He has no separation issues or destructive behavior. He is fine with strangers coming into his home. Adoption fee is $475 If you do not hear from us within 7 days please email passion4petsrescue@gmail.com

Story
Harley is an older dog, but he sure has a lot of spunk! Age unknown. Likes to take walks and explore. He is also a snuggle bug and will lay in your lap as long as you let him! Harley is well behaved around all ages of people and other pets (dogs and cats). He requires soft food as he is a senior and it's a little easier for him. We have discovered that he does have a heart murmur. He is tolerant of baths and nail clippings. We have been fostering him for about 6 months, but it's time for him to find his forever home.

Story
Pedro is a "Chipoo" and is such a smart, energetic dog! Estimated 6 yo.Very loving and affectionate and is the happiest sitting on your lap watching TV. Pedro prefers to be the only pup in the house because he wants all of your attention! However, he does get along with other dogs. Easy to train and loves his treats. He is great around older kids (teens), but probably not best around young children who may get rough with him. We have been fostering him for a year, but it is time for him to find his forever home.
