PUPPY TRIPP

Australian Terrier/Dachshund

Story

If personality could wag a tail, Tripp’s would never stop This little guy doesn’t just enter a room — he makes it brighter. Tripp is affectionate, animated, and full of charm in a way that feels effortless. He’ll tumble into your lap for belly rubs, stretch out dramatically for a nap, and then pop back up ready to explore the world again. He truly lives life in two speeds: play hard and sleep harder. Tripp’s story began with a beautiful gray dapple Australian Shepherd mix mama with striking ice-blue eyes. When her owner was suddenly hospitalized and faced a serious diagnosis, she made the heartbreaking but loving decision to ask for help. Critter Cavalry Rescue stepped in to make sure Tripp and his mom would have a safe future — and now this boy is ready to find his forever family. There’s no missing the blend in him. You can see the intelligence and drive of the Aussie — he wants to learn, conquer, and figure things out. Stairs? He’s working on mastering those with determination (they were never part of his former camper life!). At the same time, he carries that loyal, slightly dramatic watchdog streak often seen in a Dachshund. If someone approaches the house, he’s ready to announce it like it’s his full-time job. Tripp is incredibly people-oriented. He doesn’t just want a home — he wants his people. He’ll shadow you from room to room, watch your every move, and try to be involved in whatever you’re doing. He’s still working on full potty training but understands pee pads and is making progress. He walks fairly well on a leash and will only improve with consistency and patience. And fair warning — this boy is a conversation starter. His unique look and confident personality will have strangers stopping you to ask, “What is he?” And you’ll get to proudly say he’s a perfect little mix of Dachshund and Aussie magic. Tripp is fostered in Nashville, TN and is available for adoption now. He can be adopted locally in Tennessee, and transport is available along the northeastern coast, serving 12 states. If you’re ready for a smart, affectionate puppy who will keep you laughing and deeply loved, Tripp may be your perfect match. Email ccrtennessee@gmail.com and 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.comFebruary 23, 2026, 9:26 pm

Carousel

Shepherd (Unknown Type)

Female, 4 mos

Chester Springs, PA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Story

Meet Carousel, Inkblot & Flapjack! Carousel, Inkblot, and Flapjack are three adorable German Shepherd puppy sisters who are ready to find their forever homes—separately ( we will not adopt litter-mates together). These beautiful girls are about 4 months old, weigh around 22 lbs, and sport the classic black-and-tan German Shepherd coloring we all love. The trio was found as “strays” in Philadelphia and brought to ACCT Philly, who reached out to us for support. With so many sudden changes, it’s no surprise the puppies were initially scared and unsure—but who wouldn’t be? With patience, kindness, and consistency, they’ve begun to settle in and let their true puppy personalities shine. Each girl is smart, treat‑motivated, and eager to learn. As their confidence grows, we’re seeing playful, curious puppies who are ready to bond with their people and continue learning what it means to be a beloved family dog. They’ll thrive with adopters who understand the breed and are committed to positive training, structure, and continued socialization. Because of their breed and young age, homes with prior German Shepherd experience are strongly preferred. These girls are going to grow into loyal, intelligent companions and will do best with families who appreciate the needs—and rewards—of shepherd ownership. Carousel, Inkblot, and Flapjack are sweet, promising pups looking for patient, loving homes where they can continue to build confidence and grow into the amazing dogs they’re meant to be. They will come spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped.
