Story
This special little one year old chihuahua is called Magic Maude.  And especially sensitive little girl, that somehow got just a little too round and is on a dedicated exercise in nutrition program to drop some weight.  Currently, she is eighteen pounds and we field that she would be best to be in the ten to twelve pound range as a goal.  She originally was in a chaotic home that animal control had to step in and take away 112 chihuahuas that we're living in the home.  An unfathomable amount of dogs that were not altered, but yet healthy.  When mod came to our rescue and was put in a foster home. She lay there in her crate for days very depressed and emotionally unresponsive.  She barely moved from the one spot she lay in.   Eventually, after almost two weeks, she perked up with the company of few other chihuahuas coming to join her in her large crate.  Soon she was going on walks with the foster. Mom and seemed to enjoy the freedom of being outside, taking in all the new sights and sounds of the neighborhood.  We know she had never been leash walked due to the overcrowding at her original home.  This girl is spayed and healthy and ready to start all over again. She wants love and we promised her a great family who will love her and take her for walks and treat her like the Magic Maude that she is.  She is currently in Nashville, Tennessee, and can be transported to the northeast region as well. Please write to Critter Cavalry Rescue  at ccrnewengland@gmail.com  if you want to adopt or know more.  PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.November 7, 2025, 6:32 pm

Story
  Meet Bella, a darling 5–6-year-old Chi mix (possibly a Chiweenie) who weighs just 9 pounds but has a heart big enough to fill your whole home. Bella’s greatest joy in life is being with her person. She is a true little lovebug who will happily curl up in your lap, snuggle under the blankets, and follow you from room to room with soft devotion. Though she’s a Velcro dog in the sweetest way, Bella is also wonderfully well-adjusted. She handles alone time like a champ and is quiet, calm, and content while you’re away. She’s pad trained, respectful, and has the sweetest, gentle energy — the perfect mix for someone looking for a loyal companion who isn’t demanding. Bella gets along beautifully with other dogs and coexists peacefully with cats. She’s social, affectionate, and always ready to brighten your day with her soft presence and warm eyes. If you’re an older adult or anyone looking for a constant companion who will fill your life with warmth and unconditional love, Bella may be the perfect match. This precious girl is ready to shower her forever family with comfort, companionship, and endless snuggles.   If you are interested please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@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.comDecember 1, 2025, 1:28 pm

Story
Personality: smart, shy, playful, calm, gentle, timid/fearful, and quiet. Lil Mama is a lil sweetheart! She’s gentle but playful and adores playing with her stuffy toys, eating from snuffle and lick mats, and relaxing in her crate. Lil Mama rarely barks either inside or outside and has taken quickly to crate training. House training is still a work in progress, but she mostly knows when to go outside and is a fast learner. Since moving into her foster home, Lil Mama has been slowly warming up to her caretakers and learning that humans can be loving friends. She would do best in a loving and patient home where she can acclimate at her own pace, with an adopter who will take the time to help her grow her confidence. Does that sound like it could be your home? Apply today to meet Lil Mama! ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue is a foster-based rescue in Washington, DC.
