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 22 pounds (with about five to shed), 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 would thrive either as an only dog or with just one calm companion. More than anything, he longs for a steady, devoted person who will be his life coach — someone with patience, understanding, and unconditional love to help him blossom.   He doesn’t need chaos. He doesn’t need adventure.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 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.comMarch 4, 2026, 11:33 am

Story
  If joy had four paws and a wagging tail, it would look just like Joyful Jayda. This precious little girl is a delightful blend of Chihuahua and Tibetan Spaniel, born on January 23, 2025, and weighing about 10–12 pounds—the perfect size for cuddling, traveling, and being your constant little companion. Jayda’s story began when her mother, a stray in a neighborhood, was taken into foster care by a kind person who didn’t want her having puppies outside. It turns out that the handsome neighborhood Tibetan Spaniel had already played his part in her story, and that’s how sweet Jayda came to be. Jayda was lovingly adopted as a puppy and spent almost a year in a home where she was cherished. Sadly, her owner began experiencing serious health issues that kept her away from home much of the time. Wanting the very best life for Jayda, she made the loving and selfless decision to return her to rescue so she could find a home where she receives the attention and companionship she deserves. And what a wonderful companion she is! Jayda is housebroken and even rings a bell when she needs to go outside—a very smart little lady. She loves people, enjoys other animals, and brings a bright, happy energy wherever she goes. Joyful Jayda truly lives up to her name. She’s affectionate, friendly, and ready to fill someone’s home with love, laughter, and plenty of snuggles.       If you’re looking for a small dog with a big heart and a joyful spirit, Jayda may be the perfect match for you. Joyful Jayda is available through Critter Cavalry Rescue.   For more information, please email 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.comMarch 6, 2026, 1:17 am

Story
  Missy Girl is the very definition of resilience. This beautiful 2-year-old Chihuahua and Blue Heeler mix has already lived through more uncertainty than most dogs should ever know, yet her heart remains open and full of love. She was part of a heartbreaking situation involving a large number of neglected animals living in a troubled home where both pets and people had been abandoned to fend for themselves. When things finally fell apart, Missy Girl found herself wandering the streets of her small town, searching for food, shelter, and safety. With the local shelter already full, county officers stepped in to help provide food and support to the loose animals until they could safely bring them in one by one. Today, Missy Girl is finally safe with Critter Cavalry Rescue, where she is receiving the care, stability, and kindness she has always deserved.    At around 20 pounds, Missy Girl is the perfect medium-sized companion. She’s a smart and sturdy little girl with the intelligence of a Blue Heeler and the loyal heart of a Chihuahua. Despite everything she has endured, she is housebroken, affectionate, and happiest when she’s close to her people.Missy Girl loves the simple things in life that she likely missed before—curling up on the sofa beside her foster mom, soaking up affection, and enjoying the comfort of a normal home. She has a playful spirit and enjoys having fun, but she also appreciates quiet moments of love and companionship.   Car rides still make her a little nervous because of the uncertainty they once meant in her life, but with patience and love, she will learn that new adventures can lead to wonderful places. Missy Girl has survived the hardest chapter of her life. Now she is ready for the part of the story where she is cherished, safe, and deeply loved for the rest of her days. She is currently fostered in Nashville, Tennessee and can be transported north on March 13, 2026 to the right forever home.  If you believe Missy Girl belongs in your family, please contact 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.comMarch 6, 2026, 1:17 am
