Story
  When you love the Jack Russell breed of dog then you try to find that pure love to adopt.  Well Clyde is a very sweet dog but yet he is the shy type that will be oh so loving of a boy that will make you feel like you the most special person in the world.  He is just a year old and 17 pounds and he loves to play with toys that squeak and crunch. He is an active Jack Russell breed that needs a fenced in yard so he can run around and play with others safely. When it comes to cuddles….we all love that with our dogs, Clyde gives you the best cuddles that results when you “sit” he wants to be in your lap.  We will admit that he is not totally house trained and so that is a work in progress. He is crate trained as long as not being left for long hours cause of his age.   He walks on a leash as amateur but worked with it. He loves to go for long walks and see new things.   When it comes to feeling secure with a family, he is Ok with children who are respectable and who want to give him gentle and loving hugs. The Jack Russell breed is an active and vibrant one of colorful moods and playful antics.  They can be loving and snuggly and then zooming around the backyard with the energy that you wish you still had in your body.  They are invigorating and challenging to kind of up your anty so to speak.  They can help  you be more determined every day to be more focused and productive.   We love the active dogs that bring a zest to the pace of life and an intelligence that will keep you thinking great thoughts and making great strides in life.  If you are interested in Clyde the Slyde… please email at ccrtennessee@gmail.com and let us know where you live and a little more about yourself and why a JRT like Clyde is right up your alley!   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 14, 2025, 8:28 pm

Story
  If you are in search of a loving, yet active little dog, then you have found just the right girl!  Bonnie is a young, one year old, 18 pound, Jack Russell who is spunky and happy and oh so cuddly.  She is the total package of smart, quick to learn, and easy to love.  Bonnie is a little shy when you first meet her, but we guarantee she will warm up fast. She loves to play with other dogs and pull out all the toys at the foster home. And what a cuddle bug she is who longs to be someone’s very special little girl.  She is still working on her house training, but is crate trained for short periods.  No, 8 hour long crate time will work for her.  As you can imagine with an active dog, a fenced in yard would work best.  Bonnie would also love to have her new family home most of the time because she loves her people.  We are recommending that she be with an active family as she loves to see new sights and is ready for travel adventures and car rides.  She is on the go and ready to love you!  Bonnie is your girl if you are checking all her boxes.  Please write to ccrtennessee@gmail.com if you are interested.  Please mention where you live:  city and state.  She is currently in Nashville, Tn with Critter Cavalry Rescue and we transport to the northeast on weekend.       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 26, 2025, 8:42 pm

Story
Meet Gracie! This lovely little lady was unfortunately recently surrendered to us, so she is hoping to find her forever home soon! Gracie can be quite touch sensitive(particular about when & where she is touched), so she will require any children in the home to be at least 10 or older. Due to similar reasons she will be required to meet any resident dogs prior to going home as well. Please remember that when doing any introductions with either people or animals to do them slowly! Jack Russell Terriers are hunting dogs, so she will unfortunately not be able to go to a home with cats or other small animals. For similar reasons, any potential adopter will need to have experience with high energy and/or working dog breeds. Gracie is a very loving and playful girl(with both people & dogs!), she will just need someone who can help keep her mentally stimulated. If you would like to visit this spunky & playful girl or if you have any questions, please ask a Kennel Technician & they will be happy to assist!

Story
MERCY IS IN A FOSTER HOME AT THIS TIME- BEFORE SHE MAY BE ADOPTED, SHE NEEDS A DENTAL- ONCE WE HAVE AN ADOPTER FOR HER, THE DENTAL WILL BE SCHEDULED. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN MEETING MERCY, PLEASE REACH OUT TO PRAS-FOSTER@NNVA.GOV.Hello, I`m Mercy, a seasoned lady with a heart full of love. I`m a gentle soul, preferring quiet moments and mellow afternoons. My favorite pastime is curling up in a cozy corner (or on a mound of pillows), perhaps with a friendly feline companion. I`m not much for dogs, but cats? They`re my kind of company. I can be a little shy at first, but once I get to know you, I`m as sweet and cuddly as they come. I value my independence, but I also cherish companionship. I`d love to spend my golden years with someone who appreciates a calm, loving presence. Adopting me means welcoming a friend who will cherish your company, respect your space, and bring a gentle, mellow vibe to your home. I`m ready to share my love and kindness with a forever family. Could that be with you?

These pups are in Norfolk, Virginia too!
