Story
This little Chihuahua Princess is called Giselle.  A lovely and delicate 2 year old 8.5 pound girl that once was part of a hoarding situation in a small town in Middle Tennessee.over 15 Chihuahuas were removed from a home where they were living in horrible conditions and no one was spayed or neutered. We found this precious girl in the mix where she was among so many male Chis, but fortunately she was not pregnant.  It took a little time to gain her trust and confidence that where she was now, was a place of love and safety.   She is such a snuggle bug and starting to blossom into a precious little pocketbook traveler.  She is almost housebroken and she sleeps through the night in the bed with her foster mom and her 3 Yorkies.  Everyone has welcomed her into the dog pack at her foster home and she feels so comfortable flirting with the boys and running in and out of the doggie door to feel the fresh Spring grass under her tiny little princess size feet.  She is a Deerhead Chihuahua and should be no bigger than 9-10 pounds when her good and healthy weight is fully gained.   A true Chihuahua loving home is what she needs.  She will be such a diva Princess that will bring years of great joy to anyone's life.  If you are interested please email 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.comApril 15, 2026, 6:22 pm

Bruce's basic bio is below, but we maintain more detailed information about each of our animals on our website, which is also always up to date with animals removed immediately once they are adopted. Please visit Bruce's page on our site (https://www.muddypawsrescue.org/adoptable?dog=009739) to learn even more about Bruce! Additionally, please note that the breed listed for Bruce is just our best guess based on the dog's physical features. We cannot make any guarantees about the accuracy of our guesses. PLEASE NOTE: DUE TO VOLUME, WE ARE GENERALLY UNABLE TO RESPOND TO INQUIRIES MADE USING THE 'ASK ABOUT ME' BUTTON. Please reach out to us directly using the contact information on our website: www.muddypawsrescue.org. Meet Bruce- an itty bitty little guy with a HUGE personality! Straight from NYC ACC, he was found abandoned in a carrier in the lobby of an apartment building. While he was understandably shaken up and nervous at the shelter, within 2 hours of settling in he started to open up and let his personality REALLY shine. He is incredibly goofy and is such a ham- not to mention he LOVES toys and happily gathers all the toys in his vicinity to keep watch over. Once he’s tuckered himself out from playing fetch, he is delighted to curl up in your lap for a nap.

Story
Meet Canelo! Canelo is a 2 year-old, 16 pound Chihuahua mix who's the sweetest little pup you’ll ever meet. Some of Canelo's favorite things are Pork Chomp Roasted Bones and taking naps. He also loves to cuddle - don’t be surprised if he jumps on your lap for some lovin’! You’ll easily fall in love with him when he looks at you with his big brown eyes. If you’re looking for a cuddlebug for life, Canelo's your boy! Canelo is currently being fostered in Long Branch, NJ, and his adoption fee is $550. To adopt this animal, please visit https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt All of our animals come spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, are microchipped, heartworm negative, current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention, dewormed, and treated for any ailments found upon veterinary examination. The adoption fee covers a portion of these services, and makes it possible for us to continue rescuing animals. For more information on the adoption fees and the adoption process, please complete our adoption application here: https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt - an application allows us to get to know your family better so we can assess whether the animal you are interested in is a good match for your home. An application does not obligate you to adopt. Please understand that due to the volume of applications some animals receive, we are unable to contact all applicants. If your application is considered a good fit for the animal you are interested in, or even a different pet, a volunteer will give you a call as soon as possible. We are a foster based rescue and do not have a shelter location where animals can be seen during the week. Please see our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/LouiesLegacy for our weekly adoption album if you are interested in meeting an animal in person. Not all animals attend every adoption event, please check our Facebook page for animal event times and locations before you make a trip to meet a specific animal.

Story
Oreo - 7 years & 11lbs, Chi Mix, Neutered  This dog is eligible to join our foster-to-adopt program. Please email fostertoadopt@socialteesnyc.org with the animal’s name in the subject line if you are interested! Want to straight up adopt? Submit an adoption application at socialteesnyc.org Level of dog ownership experience required:BEGINNER – “Beginner” doesn’t necessarily mean easy as all dogs will require time, work, and patience, but we predict this dog will be low on the challenge scale because of their breed/age combo. Potentially a good fit for someone who has relevant dog care experience (fostering, dog sitting) and is looking to adopt their first pup.  Energy level:MEDIUM – Needs a daily 60-90 minute walk or window of quick paced exercise (minimum) in addition to potty break strolls (10-30 min each). Also needs significant socializing opportunities outside the home and mental stimulation at home like tricks training practice, chew items, and puzzle toys. (This is regardless of dog size – many small breeds were designed for lots of activity and will exhibit unwanted behavior when they’re understimulated.)  Okay in the city?We don’t know yet because this pup is brand new to us. Most adult dogs do well in the city after they’ve had time to adjust to a new environment, but some never adapt and need homes in the burbs.  Potty trained?Probably! Adults usually are, but all will have transitional accidents for the first week or so. A consistent walking route and schedule plus finding spots with grass or dirt can help. Social with other dogs?Yes, but we don’t know to what degree yet. Some like to wrestle with every passing pup, others can coexist well but prefer to keep to themselves. We’ll learn more soon. Social with cats?Not sure yet! Some breed mixes that are generally NOT great matches for homes with cats include large hounds, huskies, and shepherds.  Comfortable with children?  (ALWAYS requires adult supervision)We’re not sure yet, but we try to err on the side of caution. Respectful kids ages 8 and up are probably a safe bet. Children must always be monitored and taught to interact with dogs of any age carefully.  Medical status:Healthy as far as we know. Up to date on their DHPP, Bordetella, and Rabies vaccines; heartworm tested if coming from Tennessee or Puerto Rico; spayed/neutered; microchipped; treated with dewormer upon intake How did this dog end up with Social Tees?Most of our dogs come via partner groups who help us save them from shelters where they are at risk of euthanasia in Tennessee, Los Angeles, and Puerto Rico. There are very few spay/neuter resources there and many more animals in those areas than there are people to adopt them. Rescue groups like ours bring them to the northeast where the desire for pets like these allows us to save their lives.  PLEASE NOTE: We cannot guarantee any breed mix, exact age, or full grown size (if the dog is under a year old). We do our best with very educated guesses. This animal is not at the Social Tees office, all are in foster homes. LEARN MORE ABOUT US: socialteesnyc.org and Instagram @socialteesnyc ##2709494##
