Story

All interested people should submit an adoption application as their first step. Hi, I’m Dove — a 2-year-old chihuahua mix, professional cuddler, part-time diva, and full-time velcro dog. &#226&#156&#168 Let’s get this out of the way: I love women. Like… really love women. If you’re a lady, congratulations — you are now my favorite person. I will follow you everywhere, sit on your lap, stare lovingly into your soul, and basically glue myself to your side. That’s just who I am. Men? Well… I’m working on it. When I first arrived at my foster home, I said “Absolutely not, sir” to every guy I met. But after a week, I’m finally starting to warm up to the men in my life. Slow and steady, people. Slow and steady. I’m a social butterfly with humans (especially the girls), but when it comes to dogs… um… let’s just say I have opinions. I currently live with three dogs of all shapes and sizes, and I make sure every new dog knows I’m the boss. Yes, I show my teeth. Yes, I growl. Yes, there may be a tiny snap. But don’t worry — I’m all bark at the beginning. Because guess what? After a few days, I start to soften. And after a week? I’m actually playing with them! I guess you could say I play hard to get and make other dogs work for my affection. A lady has standards, okay? I’d absolutely thrive as an only dog since humans are my true love, but sharing a home with other dogs isn’t a dealbreaker — I just need a little time to remind them who runs the show. I am housebroken, but I have a confession… I do not appreciate the cold, snowy New Hampshire weather. I’m a little girl with little legs, and I don’t do blizzards. So sometimes, to avoid going outside, I… may do my business indoors. Look, I’m delicate! If you’re looking for a loyal, snuggly, dramatic, tiny queen who will adore you (especially if you’re a woman), then I’m your girl. I’ve got a big personality in a tiny package, and my heart is just waiting for my forever person. All pets adopted from GDHS are spayed or neutered, have vaccinations brought up to date, are on heartworm preventative (dogs), FIV/FELV tested (cats) and microchipped. The Greater Derry Humane Society does not have a physical shelter, and all visits are by appointment only. December 5, 2025, 9:57 am

Story

Meet Cheyenne — a delicate, dear-head Chihuahua with a heart as tender as her tiny 9-pound frame. At just three years old, she has already experienced more upheaval than any little dog should. She spent her life cherished by her mom, but when her owner became disabled and had to move in with friends, Cheyenne came along… only to be told she could no longer stay. It shattered her mom’s heart and left Cheyenne confused and frightened. Cheyenne has lived a very sheltered, indoor life, and the changes of the past few months have left her understandably nervous. She needs time, patience, and a gentle hand to learn that her world can be safe again. Once she feels secure, she’ll quietly lean in, allow soft pets, and even offer a tiny kiss to show her trust. This sweet girl isn’t demanding—she’s simply sensitive. She finds comfort in calm environments and absolutely needs another friendly dog in her new home. Having a canine companion gives her confidence and helps her settle. She loves cuddling with her dog friends, and in her foster home, her favorite cozy spot is tucked under a blanket where she feels warm and hidden. Cheyenne is never aggressive or mean with other dogs, but energetic puppies are not her cup of tea—they’re a bit too lively for her peaceful spirit. What she truly wants is a patient, loving adopter who understands that trust is earned gently over time. If you’re looking for a quiet, loyal little Chihuahua who will adore you once she knows she’s finally safe, Cheyenne may be your perfect match. With a secure, loving home, she will blossom into the devoted companion she’s meant to be. Cheyenne is healthy, ready to go, and so deserving of her happily-ever-after.Email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com to meet this precious girl.

Story

Bear is an 18-month-old Chihuahua/scruffy terrier mix weighing just 9 pounds, but don’t let his size fool you — this little guy has a huge personality and an endless supply of joy. Playful, confident, and endlessly entertaining, Bear is a natural goofball who lives to make people laugh and dogs his best friends. Recently, Bear became a proud dog dad to six beautiful puppies born around October 10th. He came from a home that was overwhelmed with dogs and puppies, where the family simply didn’t have the resources to spay or neuter the adults. Despite the chaos of his early life, Bear has emerged happy, resilient, and full of love. One thing is very clear — Bear thrives when he has canine companionship. Having grown up surrounded by other dogs, he truly needs at least one young, active dog in his forever home to feel secure and content. He also benefits from humans who enjoy long, brisk walks, playtime, and interactive fun. Squeaky toys and rope toys are his absolute favorites. Bear is still learning the basics of pet life, but he’s making wonderful progress. He sleeps through the night in his crate and chooses it as his safe space during the day. He’s new to leash walking but is catching on quickly with daily practice, and his house-training is coming along nicely. Having just been neutered, Bear wears a belly band indoors while he learns not to mark — and he handles it like a champ. Bear is fantastic with other dogs and does well with cats, too. With his adorable wiry coat, bright eyes, and sharp mind, he’s eager to learn and will quickly pick up any manners or training his new family wants to teach. Despite a rough start, Bear’s happiness was never dimmed — in fact, it shines brighter each day in his calm, loving foster home. If you’re looking for a joyful little companion who will bring laughter, energy, and love into your life, Bear is ready to start fresh and be your loyal sidekick. Please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com if you’re interested in adopting Bear.

Story

Hi there, I'm Woody! I'm still just a puppy, but I've got a lot of heart. I'm pretty curious about the world around me. I love exploring new smells, tastes, and textures. I can't wait to find out what's around the next corner! I'm a quick learner too, and I'm eager to please. I've been practicing my 'sit', 'stay', and 'fetch' with the nice people here. I'm also good at giving puppy kisses and making people smile. I'm looking for a forever home where I can continue my adventures and bring joy to my new family. Adopting me means endless love, loyalty, and fun!
