Story
  All hail King Solomon of the Snuggle Clan! At just 12 weeks old and already weighing in at 10 pounds, this Chihuahua mix may be small, but his personality is anything but small.  His ultimate weight should be 20-24 pounds of sleek good looks and agile moves.  Solomon is the perfect blend of cuddle bug and playful little rascal. One minute he’s curled up on the couch soaking in all the love, and the next he’s proudly marching around the yard with a stick twice his size, like he just conquered his kingdom. He loves romping with his puppy friends, chasing kids through the yard, playing with his toys, and following his humans everywhere—your loyal little shadow has officially arrived. Like any young pup, Solomon is still learning the ropes. He’s working on leash walking with a harness, potty training, crate training, and understanding personal space—especially with his senior Blue Heeler foster sisters who are helping show him the way. The good news is he’s already picking up on things quickly. He comes when called, understands that “no” means no, scratches at the door when he needs to go outside, and does well with cats. He’s a smart little guy who just needs consistency to keep shining. Solomon also has a brave-but-sensitive side. Around new male dogs, he can get a little unsure and may try to act tough before retreating to his safe place right between your legs. With patience and reassurance, he’s learning that he doesn’t have to be afraid. He’s also made great progress with early food guarding, showing just how much he can grow when he feels secure. This little king is ready to find his forever person—someone to love him, guide him, and give him the safe, happy life he deserves. In return, you’ll gain a best friend who will rule your heart in the sweetest way possible. If you are ready for this kind of love please contact us 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.comJune 17, 2026, 3:33 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.               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.comJune 17, 2026, 3:33 pm

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.   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.comJune 17, 2026, 3:33 pm

Story
  Mr. Bob may be small in stature, but he carries the heart and wisdom of an old soul. This 5-year-old Chihuahua began life in a crowded backyard breeding situation, one of 17 little dogs trying to make sense of a world that didn’t offer much comfort. When he was finally relinquished and welcomed into rescue, everything changed — though for Mr. Bob, change takes time. At 19 pounds, this sturdy little gentleman is working toward a healthier lifestyle with proper diet and gentle exercise. But while his body is solid, his heart is tender and still learning to trust this brand-new chapter. Mr. Bob is shy, soft-eyed, and deeply observant. He’s the kind of dog who quietly studies his surroundings, trying to understand how he got so lucky to land in a calm, loving foster home. He’s discovering that kind hands, cozy beds, and soft voices are not temporary — they’re his new normal.  He has proven to be gentle and patient with children and small dogs, though he does appreciate having his own peaceful corner to nap undisturbed. After years of living among too many dogs in a chaotic space, personal room to relax is something he treasures. He absolutely loves to cuddle and prefers to sleep close to his human at night. Fully crate trained, he sleeps soundly without a peep.  The leash is still a mystery to him and a bit frightening. He prefers quick potty breaks and then hustling back inside where he feels safe. We suspect he never had much outdoor experience before. With patience and reassurance, he will continue building confidence at his own pace. Mr. Bob has become the most well rounded and easy going perfect boy ever.  He is happy and great on a leash and loves to go to Home Depot for little visits and some social encounters. More than anything, he longs for a steady, devoted person who will be his life coach.  He doesn’t need chaos but he is in a household that is busy and fun and yet steady. He just needs someone who sees the quiet beauty in a shy little soul learning how to trust.  If you feel called to give Mr. Bob the safe, gentle future he deserves, please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@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.comJune 17, 2026, 3:33 pm

Story
  Meet Bashful Bam Bam — a tiny treasure with a huge heart. This handsome purebred Chihuahua is just 1 year old and weighs a petite 12 pounds, making him the perfect little lap companion. With his beautiful white coat, warm brown markings, and soulful, expressive eyes, Bam Bam has a way of melting hearts the moment you meet him. Bam Bam may be a little shy when first introduced to new people, but give him a little patience and kindness, and you’ll quickly discover a deeply loving and devoted companion. Despite a difficult beginning in life — having been left outside in freezing weather by people who failed him — Bam Bam has never lost his gentle spirit or his ability to trust and love. Thanks to the care and affection of his foster mom, he’s learning what it truly means to be safe, cherished, and part of a family. This sweet little guy absolutely adores his people. One of his favorite moments each day is greeting his foster mom when she comes home from work, tail wagging and ready to shower her with unconditional love. After a long day, Bam Bam has a special way of making stress disappear with cuddles, companionship, and his calm, comforting presence. Bam Bam enjoys all the simple pleasures in life — curling up in your lap, going for walks, riding in the car, and spending quality time with his humans. He’s doing wonderfully with the doggie door at his foster home and also reliably uses puppy pads. He gets along well with other dogs and is friendly and respectful with the resident cats, making him an easy addition to a loving home. This little survivor is neutered, up to date on all vaccinations, heartworm negative, and in excellent health. Bam Bam is now ready for the forever home he truly deserves — one filled with warmth, patience, love, and plenty of lap time. In return, he’ll give you endless loyalty, affection, and a bond that only a rescued dog can offer.   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.comJune 17, 2026, 3:33 pm

Story
Lola is the definition of a devoted companion dog and professional lap warmer. This sweet little lady has a big personality packed into a small package and is happiest when she's right by your side. Lola previously belonged to an elderly woman who adored her but sadly had to surrender her due to health issues. It's clear that Lola was a cherished family member, and she’s looking for a new person to love with that same unwavering devotion. She is incredibly people-oriented and seems to have a sixth sense for companionship. She sleeps in bed (no crates please!) and is the perfect snuggle buddy—quiet, cozy, and content to share your pillow. Lola enjoys the finer things in life. Dog biscuits/kibble? Lola would respectfully prefer something from the human menu. She loves walks, car rides, adventures, and simply being included in whatever you're doing. Don't let her age fool you—this little lady still has plenty of pep in her step. She loves toys, especially stuffies, and enjoys fetch and a bit of tug. She likes to run and play and would be thrilled to have a fenced yard, though she could also be happy with regular walks and exercise. Lola is not a couch potato! Lola has flourished in her foster home alongside her canine friends. While she lived as an only dog previously, she's proven to be very social and adaptable. She is making tremendous progress with cats despite having no prior experience with them. She could successfully live with a confident, dog-savvy cat, though a cat that runs may inspire her to give chase. Lola is a loyal shadow, a faithful best friend, and a cuddle expert all rolled into one adorable package. Adopters have 30 days of free access to 1-on-1 text and email support from trainers at Petcademy to help make every pet's transition into their new home as smooth as possible. All dogs available for adoption have been spayed/neutered, microchipped and are current on all vaccinations. Please email dogs@henricohumane.org for more information.

Coco is a 12 year old male Pomeranian who weighs 22lbs. He has lost two pounds, but needs to lose another two or three. Coco will eat as much as you let him, so his food intake needs to be closely monitored. Coco loves walks, but pulls on the leash. He will need more training related to that, but he is fully potty trained. Coco loves toys, especially his Lambchop. Coco needs a confident owner who understands Coco's communication style. He does not bark at random things very often, but he does bark to communicate. Coco is on two heart medications and an arthritis medication. His conditions are well-managed. He is also on a prescription diet due to food allergies. Coco would love to have a forever home to spend the rest of his senior years. Please email dancersbridgedogrescue@gmail.com if you are interested in adopting Coco. 🥰
