Story
This special little one year old chihuahua is called Magic Maude.  And especially sensitive little girl, that somehow got just a little too round and is on a dedicated exercise in nutrition program to drop some weight.  Currently, she is eighteen pounds and we field that she would be best to be in the ten to twelve pound range as a goal.  She originally was in a chaotic home that animal control had to step in and take away 112 chihuahuas that we're living in the home.  An unfathomable amount of dogs that were not altered, but yet healthy.  When mod came to our rescue and was put in a foster home. She lay there in her crate for days very depressed and emotionally unresponsive.  She barely moved from the one spot she lay in.   Eventually, after almost two weeks, she perked up with the company of few other chihuahuas coming to join her in her large crate.  Soon she was going on walks with the foster. Mom and seemed to enjoy the freedom of being outside, taking in all the new sights and sounds of the neighborhood.  We know she had never been leash walked due to the overcrowding at her original home.  This girl is spayed and healthy and ready to start all over again. She wants love and we promised her a great family who will love her and take her for walks and treat her like the Magic Maude that she is.  She is currently in Nashville, Tennessee, and can be transported to the northeast region as well. Please write to Critter Cavalry Rescue  at ccrnewengland@gmail.com  if you want to adopt or know more.  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.November 7, 2025, 6:32 pm

Story
  Meet Bella, a darling 5–6-year-old Chi mix (possibly a Chiweenie) who weighs just 9 pounds but has a heart big enough to fill your whole home. Bella’s greatest joy in life is being with her person. She is a true little lovebug who will happily curl up in your lap, snuggle under the blankets, and follow you from room to room with soft devotion. Though she’s a Velcro dog in the sweetest way, Bella is also wonderfully well-adjusted. She handles alone time like a champ and is quiet, calm, and content while you’re away. She’s pad trained, respectful, and has the sweetest, gentle energy — the perfect mix for someone looking for a loyal companion who isn’t demanding. Bella gets along beautifully with other dogs and coexists peacefully with cats. She’s social, affectionate, and always ready to brighten your day with her soft presence and warm eyes. If you’re an older adult or anyone looking for a constant companion who will fill your life with warmth and unconditional love, Bella may be the perfect match. This precious girl is ready to shower her forever family with comfort, companionship, and endless snuggles.   If you are interested please contact 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.comDecember 1, 2025, 1:28 pm

Story
Napoleon is quite the character, as his name suggests. He came to us as a pretty fearful, aggressive pup, but with lots of work from his foster he is learning to trust humans and is getting a little overly confident now. He is learning that he is not in charge and he needs a human who will not bow down to his every whim and mood swing. His foster says, "Show no fear and he will love you!" As long as you aren't hesitant with him he does great and will let you do pretty much anything to him. But if someone is shy and hesitant around him he goes on a little tirade and can get growly and nippy . If you are an experienced, confident human who would love a little buddy, then Napoleon is for you!

Story
Lucy came to Saver of Souls as a stray in poor health. You wouldn't believe that now! She has gained weight, has had a much needed dental, and her skin is looking wonderful. She is so much stronger. She does still has some weakness in her hind legs, but she improves almost daily. Lucy is an active senior dog, but also enjoys lap time. She is housebroken and loves a good walk. She needs more training on leash but is coming along. Lucy is a barker and so may not be suitable for apartment living. She gets along with other dogs but not cats. She seems to like children who know how to treat dogs. No tail pulling! Lucy is a lively and cute little dog who would do best in a quieter home. She deserves all the love you can give her.
