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
