Story
If ever there was a dog who deserved a fresh start, it is Lil NYX. This delightful little guy has finally escaped a difficult past and is now ready to begin the happy life he has always deserved. After spending months in a shelter waiting for someone to give him a chance, NYX is now in the care of Critter Cavalry Rescue, and we are determined to make sure his next chapter is filled with love, stability, and happiness. NYX's journey has not been an easy one. Through circumstances beyond his control, he found himself waiting in a shelter while his future remained uncertain. During that time, three different families expressed interest in adopting him, only to have their plans change. Each disappointment left shelter staff heartbroken because everyone who met NYX quickly fell in love with him. He was a favorite among the staff, who knew what a special dog he truly is. When he was finally cleared to move on and become available for adoption, there was genuine celebration among those who had been rooting for him all along. At just one year old and weighing 24 pounds, NYX is the perfect size for almost any home. He appears to have some Corgi and perhaps a little Beagle in his background, giving him an irresistibly adorable look to match his wonderful personality. He is a quiet dog who is not prone to barking, and he has proven himself to be easygoing, affectionate, and eager to please. He gets along beautifully with other dogs, enjoys children, walks well on a leash, is crate trained, and is already housebroken. With the exception of wanting to chase a cat his overall temperament is friendly, playful, and incredibly loving. The truth is that we struggle to find anything negative to say about this sweet boy. NYX has all the qualities people hope to find in a companion dog. He is the kind of loyal friend who will happily share your adventures, curl up beside you at the end of the day, and fill your home with joy and companionship. After everything he has been through, he deserves a family that will never let him down again.NYX is ready right now to leave his past behind and run straight into the life he was always meant to have. If you would like to learn more about him, ask questions, or request an adoption application, please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com. We have a feeling that the family lucky enough to adopt Lil NYX will wonder how they ever lived without him. PLEASE NOTE: Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.
