Story
  Chihuahuas are some of the most beloved breeds in America today. Their small bodies and tender, loving souls bring the kind of affection that so many people are searching for. They don’t need much space or food, yet they give enormous companionship, loyalty, and joy. These little dogs want to be at the center of their person’s world, creating bonds that last a lifetime and leaving a legacy of love that endures even after they are gone.   Grant’s story is one of resilience and hope. He came from a home with too many dogs and not enough care, ending up in a tiny shelter in Tennessee, frightened and unsure of the world. Despite this uncertain past, Grant has a gentle heart and a sweet, affectionate nature that is shining through more every day.   Grant is a handsome 1-year-old, 15-pound Chihuahua with the most charming white sock “leggings” that make him truly stand out. He’s a tall little boy with a big heart, and though he can be a bit nervous at first, he is making remarkable progress in just two weeks with us. Like a child a little afraid of the dark, Grant simply needs patience, love, and gentle reassurance. Once he feels safe, he will gladly curl up in your lap, soak up attention, and shower you with affection.   He is good with other dogs, though sometimes a little bossy at first—likely a habit from his uncertain past—but he quickly backs down once he feels secure. Grant is mostly housebroken and does well in a home without a crate. He is a climber and clever little adventurer, so confining him isn’t the best idea. He thrives when allowed to move freely, and he won’t tear anything up.   Grant is a small dog with enormous potential to become a loving, devoted companion for the right person. He is ready to blossom in a home that will give him the patience and affection he deserves, one cozy, comforting day at a time.   To make Grant a part of your life, email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com. Please include your city and state.   ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED. Contact ccrtennessee@gmail.com.July 15, 2026, 7:00 pm

Story
  This sweet little guy is Buddy and he is a happy go lucky 7-year,14-pound Chihuahua mix who has been with my a senior couple since he was a puppy. Due to his elderly mother's move to assisted living, this boy needs to be moved to a loving foster or forever home ASAP.   The family children have heavy personal responsibilities and illness they are dealing with and Buddy cannot join either of the homes of the daughters.  They feel backed in a corner to find him a place very soon and Critter Cavalry Rescue is dedicated to helping this innocent little happy guy find a place to share his joyful personality.   Buddy is incredibly loyal and loves being with his people. He has plenty of energy for playtime and would love a fenced yard where he can run and explore, but if you don't have a fenced yard, he also does well going for walks on a leash. He's also perfectly happy curling up beside you for a nap. He is up to date on all vaccinations and is happiest when he's spending time with the people he loves. Buddy could fit into many different types of homes. He may especially enjoy a quieter home with an older person or couple, but more than anything, he just wants a family who will love him, include him, and make him part of their lives. This is a heartbreaking decision for his mom, and the only goal is to find Buddy the safe, loving home he deserves. Buddy would do best in a home without cats as he thinks of them as a good game of chase.  While he can get along with other dogs, he tends to do best with a sweet, confident dog who won't be intimidated by his strong personality, as he can sometimes be a bit bossy with other dogs. We know there is a special person or family out there who will give him the love, companionship, and happy home he deserves.  Please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com if you are interested in making this darling little guy your amazing sidekick for life.               ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.

Story
Cookie and Tiny are a bonded, and now married!, set of Chihuahua's. Cookie is the larger one at around 8lbs and fairly tall, and Tiny is smaller at around 4lbs but needs to maybe gain a pound or so. They are both recently spayed and neutered and since that time Tiny's obsession with Cookie has abated a bit so we are now not 100% sure that they have to be together-but they come from the same home and get along great so it would be ideal for them to be together! They are now married after all! They can bark at strange men especially but did great with our male vet and seem to calm down after spending just a brief amount of time with them and do well with our male team members after spending more time with them. Cookie especially is a kisser and loves to love on people-awwww! But we have discovered that Tiny also loves to be carried around and they will both vie for a spot on your lap! They both can be vocal when left so would not do good in an apartment setting.July 10, 2026, 10:03 am

Story
Etta James is brand new to us at Bonaparte's and she already has adjusted in with her foster easy peasy! This girl seems very sweet and good with other dogs, and seems ok medically but is extremely obese so we need to have her vetted and make sure there is no medical reason for her weight and then start her on a weightless journey. Once we have established what is going on we can open her up for adoption but she will be coming soon until then-July 10, 2026, 10:03 am

Story
Rocky came to us because his person was elderly and had to enter a care community and could not bring Rocky so he was surrendered to the shelter where we pulled him. He has really opened up and started blossoming since he has been with his fosters and we have really been able to start to get to the bottom of the challenges he came to us with. We have discovered that he has allergies so have started him on meds and that has really helped his skin, we have also discovered that he has a fractured tail at the base that seems to really be bothering him so we may have to do an amputation of the tail-the vet its concerned that the nerves are being pinched so that would hopefully give him some relief. Rocky has a few more things for us to tackle before he is available but stay tuned!July 10, 2026, 10:03 am

Story
Norman is a sweet senior 8 year old, pays minimal attention to the other dog in his foster's home, likes rides in the car and is independent. Norman has started to become much more of a snuggler which is adorable and also seems to walk well on leash and eats his recommended diet  like a horse lol! In fact he has started figuring out how to climb up to his foster's bed and sleep with her and will sleep for 10 hours straight! Norman does need some fairly extensive dental work done so we will be getting that taken care of asap. He did go in to have that done but they found his heart rate to be a little slow so out of precaution we are seeing the Cardiologist June 18th just to make sure he'll be good to go under anesthesia for the dental procedure. Norman is great with being carried but has some depth perception issues so carrying him up stairs and then blocking them off so he can't independently go up or down would be needed. He LOVES to walk and get his steps in and we think he would do best in a home with a fully fenced in yard because this boy loves to explore so he would thrive with a fenced in yard to run around in. Norman may seem like he is dis-engaged but he is-he just needs a sec to explore first and then snuggle later-but he will snuggle for sure we he is ready to relax! He is good with pretty much any dog and any thing-but we are starting to see a little prey dive come out with the foster's chickens!July 10, 2026, 10:03 am
