Story
  Meet Liberty — a beautiful little soul learning how wonderful life can be.  At 4.5 months old and 26 pounds, Liberty is a Golden Doodle/Beagle mix with the softest coat and the gentlest heart. But her story didn’t start gently. Born outside in late October, she spent her earliest months exposed to unpredictable weather and very little stability. Because of that rough beginning, Liberty is still building her confidence — and as of 2/10/26, we’d say she’s making steady, beautiful progress every single day. In just 10 days in foster care, we’ve watched her begin to blossom. She may still be a little shy at first, but look into her eyes and you’ll see it immediately — this girl wants love. She wants connection. She wants to belong. Liberty will quietly sit next to you on the couch, gently leaning in. She’ll snuggle close wherever you are. And when you come home? She lights up — dancing with excitement and offering sweet kisses as her welcome-home celebration.   Liberty is also incredibly smart. With a Goldendoodle dad and a Heeler/Beagle mix mom, she inherited both brains and beauty. She has her dad’s soft, low-shedding coat, making her likely to be a non-shedder. Her fur is silky and stunning — naturally highlighted like she’s just stepped out of a salon. Her coloring is truly unique and eye-catching. In her foster home, Liberty plays beautifully with other dogs. She is submissive and will roll over on her back, showing her gentle, respectful nature. She has also been around children and does well with them. Her temperament is balanced — she enjoys running and playing outside, but she’s equally content curled up beside her people.   One of the most special things about Liberty is her sensitivity to those she loves. When her foster mom recently had a migraine, Liberty quietly snuggled up beside her, offering comfort without being asked. She has that intuitive, caring spirit that makes certain dogs truly unforgettable.   Liberty is expected to grow to around 40 pounds when fully grown. With a loving, patient, and supportive family, she is going to fully bloom into an incredible companion — loyal, affectionate, and deeply bonded to her people. She may have had a shaky start, but her future is bright. If you’re ready to give Liberty the forever home she deserves, please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com. Liberty is ready to write her next chapter — this time filled with love.   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 11, 2026, 11:18 am

Story
Meet McCoy – the sweetest little sidekick you didn’t know you were missing. At just 4.5 months old and 24 pounds, McCoy is a delightful mix of silly, snuggly, and smart. He may be a tiny bit shy at first, but give him a little patience and you’ll quickly discover his playful personality and affectionate heart. McCoy comes from a pretty interesting family tree! His mom is a Heeler/Beagle mix and his dad is a cream-colored Goldendoodle, which resulted in one very unique and adorable pup. He has the coloring of his siblings but favors his Beagle-mix mama in looks — with short little legs, a loooong Basset-style body, and a thick, medium-length coat that’s perfect for cuddling. Though he was born outside and spent his early weeks living outdoors with his parents and littermates, McCoy is now thriving inside a loving foster home. He’s learning all about family life — from the excitement of greeting you at the door (he gives the best welcome-home kisses!) to living with young boys ages 6 and 10. Every day he grows braver and more confident. At first, the big dogs in his foster home made him a little nervous — but now? He’s happily part of the crew. He absolutely loves to run and play outside, and fetch with tennis balls is quickly becoming one of his favorite games. And yes… he is SMART. You can just see those wheels turning. One of the most special things about McCoy is how deeply he bonds with his people. When his foster mom recently had a terrible migraine, McCoy instinctively curled up beside her and stayed close, offering quiet comfort. He’s not just cute — he truly cares. His activity level is beautifully balanced. He enjoys playtime and adventures, but he’s just as happy snuggled up right next to you. With a loving, supportive family, McCoy is going to absolutely bloom into the best kind of companion — loyal, joyful, and full of heart. He is expected to grow to around 45–50 pounds when fully grown. If you’re looking for a special boy who is adorable inside and out, McCoy may be your perfect match. To learn more about McCoy, please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com. We transport from our rescue base in Nashville up the northeastern corridor of states to approved adopters. McCoy is ready to find his forever family — maybe it’s you. 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.February 12, 2026, 9:03 pm

Story
WISE is entirely volunteer-run and all of the donations made to our rescue go directly back to the animals in our care. By partnering with veterinary practices that support our work, we are able to save animals lives and restore them back to health. While some animals only need standard care, others require more extensive veterinary or behavioral care. Regardless of which dog you are applying for, we are looking for adopters to support our program with a minimum donation of $850. The donation may or may not be directly applied to care of the dog you're adopting but rather goes toward supporting all of the dogs in the rescue. We appreciate the understanding of our potential adopters. Please keep this in mind prior to applying.NAME: ToffeeBREED: Labrador RetrieverDOB: Jul 18, 2020 (5 years 5 months)Home Recommendation: Toffee would do best in a calm, patient home that understands she is still very shy and learning to feel safe in new environments. A home with other gentle, confident dogs would be ideal, as she clearly takes comfort in them and often follows their lead both inside and outside. She would thrive in a low-noise household, as she has an extreme sensitivity to sudden movements and loud or unexpected sounds, including noises from the TV or people moving around. Toffee would benefit from an adopter willing to take things slowly, provide reassurance, and support her in building confidence, as well as helping her gradually reach a healthier weight. With time, consistency, and a gentle approach, she has the potential to continue blossoming in the right home.WHY DID THEY COME TO WISE: Toffee spent her entire life as a breeding dog in a puppy mill. When her 'breeders' decided they no longer had a use for her, they planned to discard her. Thankfully, WISE was able to step in and rescue her giving her a second chance to experience the love and warmth of a real home. Now shes ready to start that new chapter!Personality: Toffee is a very shy, sensitive girl who is still learning how to be a dog and how to feel safe in the world around her. New situations, sounds, and movements can be overwhelming for her, and she relies heavily on guidance and reassurance from both people and other dogs. While she may not seek attention right away, she is sweet-natured and observant, quietly watching and learning at her own pace. She does best with a calm, patient approach and clear, consistent routines. KIDS: Yes, 10+DOGS: YesCATS: UnknownTraining: Toffee would benefit from a fenced-in backyard is strongly preferred since she enjoys being outside with her dog friends. She is currently working on leash training and continuing to build confidence with going potty outside. She is completely potty trained with zero accidents in the home. Her crate is her safe haven, so an adopter who respects her need for a quiet, secure space is important. With consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement, she is making progress and will benefit from an adopter willing to continue supporting her as she learnsVisit WiseAnimalRescue.org to fill out an adoption application.Adoption areas include: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Maine, Vermont, Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire.

Story
You just have to meet Alfie in person to appreciate just how uniquely adorable this guy is! With his huge boopable nose and Alf-shaped beak that looks too big for his body, he looks like a muppet or fraggle come to life. He's a 3 1/2 year old Goldendoodle, 58lbs full grown. Sadly he had a broken leg a couple years ago after being hit by a taxi cab when he had gotten loose in NYC, and it didn't heal properly and ended up needing to be amputated after the incident. He's been well adjusted to being 3-legged for a while and walks and runs so well it's hardly noticeable! He even jumps right in the car to go for rides. Our vet has him on fish oil just to help support his joints and extra care needs to be taken to make sure he doesn't get overweight or he will have more mobility issues as he ages. He's a gentle sweet soul, a little timid at first but warms up fast. He does NOT seem to have the non-shedding poodle type coat and would not be a good fit for allergy sufferers. He was quite matted when he was surrendered so has a bit of a funny haircut right now, and needs someone committed to regular brushing and grooming longterm. Please submit an application to meet Alfie! Primary Color: Red Brown Weight: 58.5 Age: 3yrs 8mths 0wks
