Story
Meet very handsome Apollo! 6 year old Apollo is a Jack Russell/Chihuahua mix looking for his furever home. He is very energetic and will be his best within an active family with older children. He loves cuddling with his cat friends (or just cuddling in general), going for long walks, and curling up on someone's lap on the couch at the end of the day. He would do best in a home without other dogs since he's pretty much alpha.   He is UTD on shots, HW negative, microchipped, and takes Heartgard monthly.   When you need that special someone to share your day with Apollo/CP is the right guy for you!!!   Please complete our application at: http://www.russellrescuetn.com/application-for-adoption/September 10, 2024, 1:42 am

Story
Hello. My name is Chyanne. I am a seven year oldish male little mix dog. I’m not really sure what kind I am, I’m just cute, I know that. Let me tell you my story. I lived in a single wide trailer with another little dog and my owner that is in her 80’s. She went into the nursing home because she is not able to take care of us or herself. I am generally a happy little guy and I am super smart. Like anyone I have faults. I’m stubborn and sometimes if I’m scared i want to nip sometimes so if you have some patience I’m just perfect for you. I have a little boo boo on my nose. I am learning kennel training and I try to open the door with my nose. It’s getting better. I’m learning my nose won’t open it. I had to learn not using the potty in the house. I have done well with that.  Where I am living right now gets up a 6 am to me ruffing at the door to go out and potty. I think it’s a fair trade! I don’t potty in the house, they get up early! I am super friendly and like other animals of all kinds! I need a forever home.

Peppermint Patty is such a sweet older lady at 12. She loves to sleep under the covers at night and naps. She has about 4 favorite places to nap. She loves being outside sitting in the sun and exploring the yard. She has a little playful side as well. Not for very long but when it happens it's adorable. She spins when she's excited. She rarely barks unless you are not doing what she wants which almost never happens because I dote on her. She gets along with my small dogs very well. They ignore each other most of the time. She's precious!Peppermint Patty is doing great! Loves to wander around the yard many times a day. Sleeps under blankets and loves to be petted. She is going to do great in a house with someone who can let her out often. She's great with my dogs who are all small. She not much of a barker, one of the only times she's barked was to get me out of bed at 5am!Peppermint Pattys owner passed away and she is looking for a new forever home. Peppermint Patty was adopted several years ago as a rescue. She had had a litter of puppies but no one wanted her. She is a quiet shy little lady. She has to take medicine twice a day for a gastro problem. Other than that she is a health sweet girl.

Story
Rodney is a very curious, mischievous little guy who gets into everything, just like a little puppy. They say this guy is around 8 years of age and weighs 12 pounds, but he acts like a kid and he shows it by running a lot out of pure joy and fun and he adores being outdoors and laying in the sun. He is not good on a leash yet and is not housebroken but we are working on both. Cats are not welcome in his world at this point because he finds them strange and annoying.  But he redeems himself with a family by loving to cuddle and snuggle.  Can you believe that underbite he has?  I mean it is the first thing you sort of notice about him.  It might make him look tough but Rodney is a 'softie' through and through.  He is just an adorable, sweet pup and he deserves a much better home than the hoarding conditions that he came from.  Maybe you want to help him see the blessings of a new home and secure lifestyle.  He will make you laugh, he will make you smile and he will make you feel loved!  Please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com if you are interested in giving him a forever home.  Please tell us the city and state that you live in when you write to us. 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.September 9, 2024, 5:10 pm

Story
Silver Sam is 5 years old and weighs 12 pounds.  Part of a big hoarding case, he was taken to the shelter and there he sat for a few months.  Critter Cavalry Rescue could not stand the thought that he was in that out of the way shelter where no one comes to adopt a dog.   We pulled  7 dogs from that hoarding case and some had been there for 6 months.  Sam is a hoot as they say.   He is funny and active and must be watched if in a chain link fenced yard.  He might find an escape route and take off just for the fun of it.  He doesn’t go far but he sure does love the chase.  He is good with other dogs and he is full of antics with the cats.  He is almost housebroken and he is just the most loving lap dog ever.  Such a great smile and attitude despite some terrible conditions in his previous life.  He is with someone that loves the Chihuahua breed and understands all the little quirks.  He really has not bad habits except the fun of occasionally making a run for it just to see you panic.  Just a little Houdini in his spirit to have some fun.  If you are interested in this guy please email us at ccrtennessee@gmail.com Tell us where you live   and what city and state.  ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.

Story
Rusty is a handsome petite little 10 lb 1-year-old Chihuahua mix that was taken from an abusive family using a 2x4 to correct him when he was not doing what they wanted. All he was doing was trying to get attention for some love and affection that they did not have to give him. So he was punished in a physical and abusive way. Despite all of this this little guy bounce back with expectations from the foster mom who rescued him. His expectations were for her to love him like he had never been loved before and that is what he has been getting. This little guy is housebroken friendly with other dogs and cats as well. He is demonstrating a little bit of a back-end sway that we've had x-rayed and his spinal L2 has a slight deformity and has created this special little walk. Seems that he was born with this slight deformity.  It doesn't stop him from being active or in any pain. This little guy needs a home to call his own and we suggest that he not be crated for 9 hours since he will protest loudly. He's great on walks and running around with other bigger dogs to play with. If you were interested in this darling boy please write to Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com.  mention what city and state that you live in since we transport northward and post our dogs and cats in 10 states outside of Tennessee where he currently is fostered ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.

Critter Cavalry rescue learned of this little homeless girl just a few days ago when a rescue volunteer came upon her with her senior human mom who was admitted at the hospital facility where she works. This little girl came in with her human mom who had been dropped off on the streets of Nashville and abandoned by some relatives.  This elderly woman has severe dementia  and this little senior long hair Chihuahua was her only possession. This rescue lady, and a nurse, has taken her home on a  temporary basis and Critter Cavalry is in need of a foster for her immediately. We are having full bloodwork, a dental and vetting done on Monday September 9th. This is when we need a foster for this 8 lb 10-year-old little girl named Precious.
