Story
Raven is my name and kind of like a raven, I am a 'loner'... except for the puppies i had when I arrived at the rescue... I was saved by a trapper on the streets, they weren't even there to save ME that day, but they did!!! I am obviously a beautiful girl, big and solid as well as black and brindly. I am a loving girl, in my own way... i lived on the streets for who knows how long and I honestly am not a cuddly girl or even a sit by your feet dog, YET... I have all kinds of love to give, you can see in my eyes that I have always dreamed of someone with the patience to love me for who I am and who I can be!! I am great on a leash and do love walking around and exploring. I am good with other dogs and likely would do best with another dog who is calm and confident with his/her family. I am so so ready for you, I have the shepherd double coat so I will shed in your house, must have a great vacuum cleaner and tolerance of hair :) Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Meet Sara — Your New Best Friend in a Perfectly Trained, 45-Pound Package of Love At just 20 months old, Miss Sara is already proving to be the kind of once-in-a-lifetime dog everyone hopes for—smart, affectionate, eager to please, and now… beautifully trained. Originally adopted as a puppy, Sara was very loved—but when her owner sadly fell ill and could no longer care for her, everything changed. She returned to us with a heart full of love, but without the manners every young pup needs. We knew this girl had potential, so off she went to a professional 3-week training program… and wow, is she showing off. &#226&#156&#133 Training? She’s nailing it. &#226&#156&#133 People? She adores them. &#226&#156&#133 Dogs? Instant besties. &#226&#156&#133 Kids? She belly-crawls just to be close to them—it’s beyond precious. We believe she’s a Dutch Shepherd mix, weighing in at about 45 pounds, with a gorgeous, sleek coat and a heart that beats for human connection. She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccines—and yes, ready to go! Now, she’s just looking for a home that can match her devotion with love and guidance. Toys are her jam, and she’ll happily entertain herself or join you for a game of fetch. No kitties for this girl, please! Chasing them is just too much fun, and she needs a cat-free home to thrive. Sara is the kind of dog who makes you feel like the most important person in the world. Her loyalty is unmatched, her spirit is bright, and her readiness for her forever home couldn’t be clearer. Interested in giving this beautiful girl her happily-ever-after? Email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com today. Let Sara show you what love, intelligence, and a second chance can really look like. 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.June 11, 2025, 9:36 pm

Story
“Dogs have given us their absolute all. We are the center of their universe. We are the focus of their love and faith and trust." Our dear Tundra is ready to have a family to love and care for her and she has so much love to give! Why we love her: Tundra is so grateful for attention and affection and absolutely loves being around people. She is a vivacious and charming dog who is an absolute delight! Her happy doggy face looks like she is smiling. She is eight years old and weighs 50 pounds. Tundra is so stunning with her beautifully patterned coat. She has such a sweet, gentle and good natured personality and is adored by all she meets! One of our volunteers says: "Tundra is such a love!" Another observes: "Tundra is one of the absolute sweetest and most gentle dogs around! She will cover you in kisses if given the opportunity and moves with grace." A third volunteer says: "Tundra is such a happy, bouncy girl!" Tundra looks forward to her daily walks and especially enjoys being close by your side. Once she is done, she loves to sit with to be petted and loved on. She is a wonderful cuddle buddy! Belly rubs are one of her very favorite things! Tundra has the best time in the fenced yard, where she bounds about in total joy and is so agile and athletic. She especially enjoys playing with the toys. Tundra will be such a loyal and devoted companion! If you can open your heart and your home to an older dog, she would love to meet you! She still has, as the saying goes, plenty of pep in her step. Tundra is a great combination of active and chill. She will be such a fun, loving and devoted part of the family lucky enough to take her home! We are so grateful to Joel Alexander for his beautiful photos of our dogs. E-mail ccacangels@yahoo.com for more information! Please come visit!

Story
Meet Ranger, the intelligent and active Belgian Malinois/German Shepherd mix with a heart full of love and boundless energy. This handsome boy is a fast learner and has mastered essential commands like sit, down, wait, and shake. He's so clever that he tackled a level 3 puzzle on his first try! Ranger is a well-behaved and well-trained pup, making him a pleasure to have around the house. He's house trained, crate trained, and shows no signs of destructiveness indoors. However, he does experience some separation anxiety when his human leaves the house, which is why he's kept in his crate during errands. But don't worry, when he's playing in the backyard with his furry friend, he's perfectly content and doesn't exhibit any separation anxiety. Ranger is an active boy who loves going on walks, and he'll gladly accompany you on all your outdoor adventures. While Ranger is intelligent and affectionate, he can be barrier reactive, meaning he may react when he encounters certain barriers or boundaries. Patience and positive reinforcement training can help him overcome this behavior. This is very typical behavior for both breeds and he absolutely has to be adopted into a Mali/GSD knowledgeable family/ Ranger was in pretty rough shape when rescued and the vet initially thought he had an intestinal disease. Nothing was definitively diagnosed but the vet believes he has small intestinal issues. He is on a folate vitamin daily and will just need annual lab work and a high quality RAW FOOD diet. Ranger's charm and charisma shine through in the photos and videos provided, capturing his playful and loving nature. If you're looking for a smart, active, and affectionate companion, Ranger is the perfect match. Give him the love and care he deserves, and he'll reward you with loyalty and companionship like no other. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

Story
Hi everyone, my name is Charlotte and I'm good girl! I'm obedient and love to go on walks. My current foster mom found me and my sidekick Sugar (the chihuahua :). I'm about 8 or 9 years old and he is 3. Our former owner could no longer care for us.. I was very, very sad, but have received lots of love from my foster family. Sugar is very attached to me and we would love to stay together in our forever home. Can you please take us both together!? We are each other's only constant at this juncture in our lives :( We seem to both do well with kids. I'm more patient with other pets, but Sugar is hit or miss. We LOVE going for walks!!! Our foster mom sometimes takes us 3x a day, but we at least need our morning walk and walk before bedtime. We are not scared of thunderstorms either and we are really well behaved. Because I'm older, I don't really get the zoomies too much, but if you say "let's dance" I'll jump for treats. Other favs: snacks, pup cups, car rides, belly rubs. Sugar likes to burrow under the covers and admittedly sometimes has accidents inside - he just needs encouragement to go outside if he hasn't been on a walk. We are an "opposites attract" kind of couple looking for that family who LOVES OPPOSITES :) We will fill your couch and your heart with love and dedication, to you and to each other!!! Attributes Crate Trained House trained Aside from our walks we do not need an active lifestyle, we're very chill. Local adoption fee (together) is $350 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee (together) is $700 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Have you ever seen a big doggy PUPPY? Well if you saw my pics, you have NOW!! I am a great boy, a busy boy and I would LOVE a busy family too!! I came to the rescue ALMOST three YEARS AGO! And all my family has already been adopted but I am still waiting............................................ And I am not sure WHY, except I am a smart and busy boy. I am good with other dogs, I need to have slow introductions and strong leader or I would do best in a single dog home...one great thing about me is...you don't have to trudge me to the dog park.... i prefer to be at home with YOU. I am good with cats too!! Now, if you know the Belgian Malinois breed you will know that exercising my body is good, but it just makes me stronger and have more stamina ;) So you have to ALSO exercise my brain- that is the way to wear me out ;) Doggy puzzles, wearing a weighted backpack, all kinds of ways to do that! I want a really nice family who will hike, bike, run, swim with me too! I have a heart of gold and am ready to shine it right on your family, ADOPT ME!!! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)
