Story

Clara Holly and Clara came from a home where they were not well taken care of. They were living outside all the time with several other dogs. Both are heartworm positive and have started the slow kill method of taking Heartguard every month. This method usually takes at least a year to test negative. Both Holly and Clara are sweet dogs. Clara loves to be held, petted and fed. She can be playful. Holly is sweet as well but very timid. She likes to be approached slowly and in on her terms. She is clearly afraid of people. But once you get to pet her or hold her she loves the attention. She loves to play and follow Clara around. She becomes braver when she is next to Clara. Both have had a few accidents but once outside they know what to do. Both of these girls deserve a loving inside home. They deserve to be fed on a regular basis. They deserve fresh water. They deserve toys and chews. They deserve their own soft beds. They deserve as many pets as they will tolerate. They deserve to be dogs who feel safe. If you have love and a soft place to land these two may be your next best friends. If interested in giving Holly and Clara a home together, please complete our application at safeanimalhaven.org.

Belle is a precious 1 year old Chihuahua mix who weighs 11 pounds. She has a constantly wagging tail and the softest most loving eyes.

Belle gets along well with other dogs and brings joy wherever she goes.

Special Needs

Jingle

Chihuahua

Male, Senior

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with dogs, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Jingle is an 8-year-old, 22-pound mixed-breed boy—a perfect “best guess” blend of cuteness and charm. While we’re not quite sure what breeds make up his unique look, we are sure he’s a gentle soul who’s ready for a peaceful new chapter. Jingle hasn’t always known the care and consistency every dog deserves, and as a result, he does have some ongoing medical needs. The good news? With his medications, he’s doing well and feeling much better. What he needs most now isn’t excitement or adventure—it’s stability, kindness, and love. This sweet senior would thrive in a quite, low-stress home, a cozy spot to relax and feel safe, a person who understands senior dogs and is committed to his continued care. Jingle is looking for someone who will see past his history and focus on who he is today: a loyal, grateful companion who just wants to spend his days being cared for and loved. If you’re searching for a calm, easygoing buddy to share quiet moments with and make your house feel a little warmer, Jingle may be the perfect fit. Sometimes the best gifts really do come in small, senior packages. If you are interested in adopting Jingle, please submit an inquiry directly to Greater Charlotte SPCA by visiting charlottespca.org/adopt. The adoption amount is a suggested donation of $200 to $300 dollars based on the pet's age. **Because our rescue is composed entirely of volunteers, local applications will take precedence.

TANK

Chihuahua

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Tank — the blanket-burrowing comedian with a heart as big as his personality. When Tank’s loving owner passed away, his little world turned upside down. But even through the confusion and heartbreak, this resilient 6-year-old Chihuahua never lost his spark. A kind foster stepped in to keep him safe, and now Tank is ready to start the next chapter of his life — one filled with comfort, stability, and plenty of snuggles. Tank is fully vetted, neutered, microchipped, and heartworm negative. He recently met a cat and stayed calm and polite, proving he’s just a little gentleman in a tiny package. He may try to talk you out of going in his crate but once he’s inside, he settles easily. Still, his true happy place is under a pile of blankets — burrowed into your lap, tucked behind your knees, or occasionally perched on your pillow like a tiny, furry crown. He’s affectionate, silly, and full of personality, but never in a way that overwhelms. Tank dreams of a quiet home where he can be the center of cozy evenings and soft routines. He’d love a calm household with other friendly small dogs and no children, and most importantly, a human who appreciates a good snuggle and a warm blanket. If you’re looking for a tender-hearted companion who will love you with every ounce of his tiny body, Tank is ready to make you his whole world. Please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue if you are interested at ccrtennessee@gmail.com. Please mention where you live: city and state! 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 9, 2025, 10:15 pm
