Story
Lil Kangaroo has a name that suites him to a T!  This little guy is tenacious in facing some hard things in life and we find him to be spunky and courageous  Adding to this courage, he is also a confident, intelligent boy that has endured the hard times when his human family could struggle no longer and keep him. He was reluctantly surrendered to our rescue.  What we have found is a wonderful dog and and we have delighted in see what a truly beloved boy he is.  This dog would fit in anywhere, anytime, anyway.  Lil Kangaroo is a 2 year old, 27 pound Jack Russell mix boy that is living in a foster home with two big foster fur brothers that don’t have anything ahead of Lil Klinger.   He can and does run with the best of them. He’s housetrained, loves car rides, happily accompanies his foster dad on his long walks and the active adventures his human dad loves to go on.  This boy, Kangaroo loves to explore and live life to the fullest with lots of new experiences. He embraces all the new things and enjoys playing with his toys and is ALWAYS ready for playtime.  If you are looking for a couch potatoe then Klinger would qualify only on short term moments.  He is a great and active breed that makes a wonderful family dog that you will spend time with and actively seek the exercise time that he needs.   He would be a wonderful dog for a  young family, young couple or a  young single person that is a runner, an explorer and a dog owner that might even want to do some agility activities together.  Of course Kangaroo is neutered , UTD on all vaccinations, microchipped and on heartworm prevention with a clear fecal and wormings done. We admit, we are partial when it comes to Lil Kangaroo. He is one of the cuter and definitely the nicest small dog you could find or consider for your life partner. Don’t let this one get away!  If you are interested please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com and let’s start this ball rolling for his new forever committed home and family. 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.comMay 24, 2024, 12:04 am

Meet the "Shoe" puppies, Puma, Fila, Clark and Jordan. We always post our litters on Facebook and ask our peeps to name them so here they are! We actually have 2 litters of pups from this one person who let the breeding get out of control. Their daddy is a stray Golden mix, small, maybe 35 pounds, and their mama is a Jack Russel so these kids are going to stay small. They will be spayed and neutered before transport. They are all sweet as sugar and just need their forever home! Could that be you? PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE LOCATED IN TENNESSEE AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MEET OUR PETS PRIOR TO ADOPTION! ADOPTION FEE $700

Story
These puppies came from a hoarding situation. An older lady had the mama dog and she never got her spayed so she bred with a stray Golden Retriever mix several times. We took the two litters of pups and 3 of the adults and stopped the madness. This litter was born on January 19th of this year. If you watch the video they have quite obviously never had any kind of training but they're puppies and will learn fast! They are all sweet as sugar. All will be ready for transport at the end of June and they will be spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. These sweet babies need a home! Could that be you? PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE LOCATED IN TENNESSEE AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MEET OUR PETS PIOR TO TRANSPORT! ADOPTION FEE $700

Story
Millie is super sweet and affectionate, but takes a moment to warm up to new folks. She is 5 years old and about 22 lbs. She was living with a man and 3 cats, for the past year, after her original family could no longer keep her. Sadly, the man died and Millie was by his side for 4 days, before the cops found him in his bed. Millie is a very loyal companion. Super smart and eager to please, and is good with cats and respectful, older kids (younger kids scare her). She has a bit of resource guarding to start, so needs an experienced companion, for she is eager to please and listens well. Not hyper, but loves her toys and a lap is a must! She is a real companion dog, in need of a new companion. Millie is not yappy, but a good watch dog, and is quite playful and super affectionate. This sweet girl has such potential and just wants to be with her person all of the time. Would love to be an only dog to get all the attention from her person or couple. A must meet, for she will steal your heart for sure.  (IF YOU DO NOT GET A REPLY EMAIL WITHIN 24 HOURS, CHECK YOUR SPAM BOX AND SEND US YOUR PHONE NUMBER, FOR WE REPLY EVERY FEW HOURS TO EMAILS) PREGNANT DOG RESCUE/LOVABLE MUTTS ADOPTION CENTER is a private, in home, all breed rescue facility, specializing in pregnant dogs, moms with newborns, and small or medium adult dogs (we take in pregnant dogs, we do not adopt out pregnant dogs).  We exist only on the kindness of your donations and adoptions!  (We often have puppies and moms not listed on the site, for they might be too young at the moment to list, so please, contact us to be sure of our available pups!)  We pride ourselves on being an HOLISTIC center and feed only holistic foods and various vitamins and supplements to all of our dogs. PREGNANT DOG And ALL BREED RESCUE/LOVABLE MUTTS ADOPTION CENTER puppies are well socialized, very friendly, and in wonderful health. Our Puppies are current on vaccines, wormed, and extremely well cared for from birth - most even know how to use a dog door by the time they leave us!  They are friendly and social and very affectionate!  We stand by our pups/dogs, and give 10 days for a refund and almost always take our dogs back at any age of their lives (often depends on dog)! PDR/LMAC has an application screening process.  All applicants are asked to provide vet references, personal references, and a home visit.  We pride ourselves in matching up the right dog with the right home.  Sometimes this happens quickly and sometimes it might take awhile.  We hope you understand and are willing to wait for the perfect pup for your situation. We reserve the right to turn applicants down and to change our mind about a suitable match, for we are only concerned about what is best for our dogs.  Also note that we arrange our visiting hours around your schedule, as this is a private, in home facility.  We respond to all inquiries promptly, so if you have any trouble sending us an email, or have not heard back from us within 24 hours, please, CONTACT US AGAIN and check your spam!  (We all know how emails can be at times!) Our dogs are spayed or neutered (if old enough), up to date on vaccines, wormed, heartworm and Lyme tested, and free of fleas and ticks.  We temperament test our  dogs and they are all suitable for many family situations. Our dogs are well mannered, know some basic commands, and are usually housebroken within a week of being with us (if old enough).  They are in our family/home situation at this time (not in kennels or crates, although most are crate trained) and are worked with daily.  All of our dogs do well with other dogs and many do well with cats. Adoption donations vary with age, breed, vetting, and training of the dog, and range from $250 to $595 (most being $595).  (We do not tend to place puppies or small dogs with kids under 6 and reserve the right to match who WE feel would be the best homes for our dogs.)  May 20, 2024, 8:28 pm

Story
Theo is a 8 month old puppy that is Jack Russel and Heeler mix. He will be neutered shortly by our veterinarian for the rescue so adoption fee includes that, microchip and all core vaccine boosters needed. He has a sad history unfortunately. He was at an Amish auction and they had three pups there to auction. The Amish kids were beating him and stabbing him and a young girl grabbed the dog and took it to her grandmother's. After he healed for a while she contacted us to see if we could take him into our rescue! He is so sweet and loving! No health problems we see! A little timid but a really great dog! He loves cats! But If you are interested in meeting or adopting Theo please text Casey at 570-441-0083. We adopt to the general public but we also adopt to military veterans with adoption fee waived in order to provide our heroes with companion or emotional support dogs . Our other adoptable pets our posted on our website as well as the very brief application form. https://rescuepetsservingvets.org. ##2040215##

Story
FRANCHESCA (Chessie) is such a cutie! Due to her family's housing situation, Chessie must find a new home. Chessie is a tiny girl, much smaller than most Jack Russell terriers. We think there might be some chihuahua in the mix? She is the perfect size to curl up on your lap. Chessie likes to go on walks. She will happily trot along beside you. If she is in a fenced area, her adopter will want to be sure it is little-dog secure because she can be an escape artist. She is used to be on a leash outside, and does not require a fenced yard. She needs a home without a lot of stairs, or someone willing to carry her up the steps. Her knees are a little arthritic, and that makes going up the steps hard. She rides great in the car, but she won't be much for road trip conversation because she will likely be snoozing.  Chessie is sweet and likes to hang out with you. She will follow you around the house and hang out with you wherever you are. Her ideal home would be a quieter home. We think she would be a great companion for a retiree! She gets along well with other dogs, but she can put her sassy pants on at times and try to be bossy, so any other dogs in the home would need to understand that she is sometimes in charge. She also gets along well with the cat in her foster home. No small children for this little lady, though. Kids 12+ only.  Chessie is house trained and crate trained. She also enjoys toys and know how to play fetch! You can apply to adopt FRANCHESCA at https://www.mostlymuttz.org/adoption-application/.
