Puffin

German Shepherd Dog Siberian Husky

Female, Adult

Oakland, NJ

Size

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

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Puffin is back on the market and looking for the right fit! This smart active girl has a lot of great qualities going for her:*The perfect size at under 45lbs full grown.*Very smart! Too smart actually, she craves structure and enjoys training and learning new commands and tricks and puzzle toys to keep her mind busy. *She was housebroken and crate-trained in her previous home*Loyal to a fault. Once she connects with her person she makes it her life's purpose to please them and keep them safe.*Likes car rides and loves hikes in quiet areas. And at first glance people will think she's some kind of dingo or wild dog if you run into anyone while alone in the woods with her. She looks like a mini shepherd/cattle dog type mix, but her DNA reveals she's actually 50% pittie, 42% husky, and only 8% German Shepherd. But the shepherd personality is definitely dominant: if you love shepherd but want a smaller sized dog she's perfection.She does have her challenges that makes her stay in the shelter particularly stressful for her, and we would really love for her to get into a home environment again as soon as possible. She gets reactive meeting other dogs and "puffs up" all the hair down her back like a hyena, barking and trying to scare them away. It's all out of fear, and she has had a dog friend or 2 in the past once slowly and properly introduced, so might be able to live with the right submissive male buddy with a few careful intros. But overall has been working to learn to ignore dogs on walks which is extra difficult in the shelter being surrounded by dogs she's afraid of all day long. She's also nervous and timid with new people and needs time to assess if she wants you as a friend. She does accept bribes of cheese and chicken if you really want to get on her good side fast. But she's better in a calmer adult home where she can be introduced slowly to regular visitors and doesn't want to be the life of the party. Adults only, fast movements and kids grabbing would make her too nervous. She's quickly becoming a staff and volunteer favorite with her gentle nature and intelligence and we know she has potential to be someone's very best friend in the right home!

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Dolly is a beautiful big baby shepherd, a little over one year old and already failed by many people in her young life. She's a 70lbs giant puppy looking for a home that will provide the training, exercise, and companionship this smart active breed needs to thrive. She bonds very quickly and is a total velcro dog Definitely no kitties or smaller animals, but she might like a big doggie brother with proper introductions. She's been friendly with all staff and volunteers at the shelter, but does need someone who understands shepherds and their potential for protective tendencies and training needs. Crate-training and getting her accustomed to one is a must as she learns house manners living in a real home for the first time.

Story

Meet staff and volunteer favorite Chance! This big "young senior" shepherd is a smart playful mushy guy, gentle and loving with people and craves attention.

LUNA

German Shepherd Dog

Female, Young

Spring Valley, NY

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Sometimes it’s hard to understand how the world can fail animals the way it does. How does a stunning pair of 7-month-old, purebred German Shepherd sisters end up wandering as strays in a quiet rural Tennessee town? Yet that’s exactly how Luna’s story began. Luna is the more shy and observant of the two sisters, but her joyful spirit shines through immediately. At 46 pounds, she already carries herself with a calm, sweetnes that tells you what a great companion she will make a family. She walks beautifully on a leash, is crate trained, and rides like a pro in the car. Despite everything she’s been through, Bella remains happy, affectionate, and easy to connect with. She lives peacefully alongside cats and dogs of all sizes and blends into new environments with impressive ease. Luna is not hyper or unruly — she is thoughtful, observant, and ready to learn. With continued confidence-building and positive reinforcement, she will grow into an incredible adult German Shepherd, likely reaching 70–75 pounds. Luna and her sister Bella were never claimed, and after waiting weeks with no one coming for them, they were released into the care of Critter Cavalry Rescue. We made them a promise — to find them experienced, loving, German Shepherd-savvy homes where they can thrive. A fenced yard is required, as well as adopters committed to gentle guidance, training, and building trust. Luna is a wonderful fresh young life ready to be molded into a loyal, well-mannered companion. She and Bella are ready to be home for Christmas — warm beds, loving people, and a future they deserve. Please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com if you are interested in adopting our special. Luna 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.comDecember 14, 2025, 1:48 pm

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Bella is a 7-month-old purebred German Shepherd with a bright future ahead of her — and we can’t wait to see where life takes her next. Found wandering as a stray in rural Tennessee alongside her sister Luna, Bella somehow landed on the right side of luck when she came into the care of Critter Cavalry Rescue. Of the two sisters, Bella is the more outgoing and confident. She currently weighs 47 pounds and is already showing what a well-balanced young shepherd she is. She walks nicely on a leash, is crate trained, and rides calmly in the car — all impressive qualities for a puppy her age. Bella gets along beautifully with other dogs, large and small, and is respectful around cats. She isn’t wild, pushy, or chaotic; instead, she’s thoughtful, steady, and eager to please. With positive reinforcement, structure, and continued confidence-building, she will blossom into a stunning adult shepherd, estimated to mature around 70–75 pounds. After weeks of waiting with no owner stepping forward, Bella and Luna were officially released to CCR, and we are committed to finding them excellent, German Shepherd-savvy homes. A securely fenced yard is required, along with adopters who understand the breed and are excited to continue her training and development.Bella is sweet, adaptable, and ready to learn what it means to truly belong. She and her sister Luna are ready to be home for Christmas, and we would love nothing more than to make that wish come true. If you’re interested in adopting Bella, please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com.
