Story

Louis — The Big, Playful Lovebug Meet Louis, a 1-year-old, 55-lb boy who is playful, fun, and full of personality. Louis had a scary start to life. As a puppy, he was found on the streets after being attacked by another dog. That experience understandably stuck with him, and while Louis can learn to trust other dogs, he needs time, patience, and slow introductions before he feels safe around them. He does, however, do well with cats! With people, Louis is a sweet, playful guy who loves having fun and being part of the action. He’s also potty trained and past the tiny puppy stage, making him a great companion for someone looking for a young dog without starting completely from scratch. Louis didn’t get the carefree puppyhood he deserved, but he hasn’t let that take away his love for life. He’s looking for a family who will understand his past, give him the security he needs, and let this big, goofy boy finally enjoy being someone’s beloved dog. Louis is currently in Puerto Rico and will be transported to the states for his forever home or a foster offer.

Story

It was a hot Sunday afternoon, late in the day and a pick up truck approached the bridge going over the small river tributary. Some black dots were scurrying around like little squirrels that were not sure that direction to go. Soon it would be dark and the group would be in even greater danger. They were black Lab mix puppies. All around 15 pounds and all were covered in fleas and of course dirt from never having had a bath in their life. There were 7 and Jay Jay was one of those abandoned 7 pups. The man wasn't going to take them home. He wanted no part of them nor to be stuck with them at his place. A kind woman stepped forward and soon the news trickled down to Critter Cavalry's exceptional foster mom who took two of them in. Jay Jay is learning what air conditioning is like and what a good bath scrub down feels like as the warm water pours over his body washing away his past. He is a lucky pup and receiving love and good food and some normalcy that we are sure he never had before. He is good with other dogs and still hesitant to just go running up quickly to a new stranger. He wants to but he just cannot trust to do that yet. He will come to those that he knows. Two weeks is not enough time to reprogram a young soul that has never been a part of a family. But since he is young he will become new in all the ways of learning trust. He knows about pee pads and would love a fenced yard to run with true fun and free abandon any time his human can let him outside. This boy will be a 75 pound Lab when fully grown. We think he might have a touch of hound in him.... no Pitbull that we can see at all. We know nothing of his parents, just that someone carelessly threw his litter out of a car or truck on that bridge and sped off and never looked back. Jay Jay is looking forward and we are encouraging him every day to learn a leash and harness can be his doorway to experiencing exciting new places and good fun walks. If you are interested in this handsome boy who is ALL BOY DOG, then write to Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com He is ready for a new home and neutered with all shots and microchip and dewormings done. Healthy, sweet and on his way to finding all the happiness that a new family is willing to give 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.

Story

Ellie is a sweet affectionate puppy who loves to play ball. She is very energetic and loves to run around with the dogs in the neighborhood. She does demand attention and will steel things if you aren’t watching. I am looking for someone who has time to give the attention she needs. An ideal home would be one where someone is home to watch and play with her. She loves to run around the yard. Playing ball is her favorite pastime - two balls are best to play with. Toss a ball, she fetches and brings it back but then you throw the next ball. She doesn’t easily give up a ball until she sees the other ball. She is an avid chewer. She loves to chew. I call her Chewy. She is definitely a lab and does have frenzies every now and then. It really is heartbreaking to have to re-home her, but I just don’t have time to give the attention she needs. I am gone 10 plus hours a day which leaves her home in her crate. This is not fair to her. Unfortunately, I don’t trust her to be alone inside.

Falcor

Labrador Retriever Australian Shepherd

kennebunkport, ME

Size

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

Story

Posted November 2025 FALKOR is a handsome combination of Labrador Retriever and Australian Shepherd, and he possesses the wonderful qualities for which both breeds are known and loved! This athletic 18 month old pup has had the great fortune of living with wonderful foster families so we have some great info to provide. Falkor weighs 49 lbs. Falkor is definitely the kind of dog who must be part of the family. He thrives on human companionship and while he is friendly with other dogs, he prefers to interact and bond with "his" people. He has coexisted with several adult cats and was very respectful and observed boundaries. Falkor is also great with children, and would be a wonderful addition to a family with kiddos. This sweet boy enjoys the outdoors, exploring and looking for twigs and good smells on his walks. A fenced yard would be a great bonus so he can roll in the leaves and soak up the sun. He walks very well on leash and benefits from a harness Falkor is crate=trained and house trained, but like any dog there will be an adjustment period while he learns new routines. He is not accustomed to being kenneled for long periods of time, so his ideal home would be one where he doesn’t have a long alone day. Falkor’s Maine foster family says he is doing so well! He may not have seen stairs before because he comes down them just fine but needs coaxing to go up. He can get excited and jump on new people so they are working on that with Falkor. He plays great with dogs and kids who are patient and respectful. Falkor is FAST and playful. He’s been eating in his crate and doing well. He gets extra excited around meal times and he will learn to settle easier once he has a routine and realizes he never will have to worry about being fed again. If you have interest in Falkor or any of our sweeties please fill out the adoption application. Please note: we do not have a physical facility where the dogs are housed; they are cared for in our wonderful foster network throughout New England. Once approved, we expect a potential family to travel to the dog in the foster setting so that they are introduced where they are feeling safe and loved. Thank you for considering rescue!

Fiona

Labrador Retriever Staffordshire Bull Terrier

Female, 9 yrs 6 mos

kennebunkport, ME

Size

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

Details

Story

Newest update: June 2026 Fiona is a sweet sweet girl who prefers life as an "only child". She is learning all kinds of good skills with our friends at Kompletely K9 Dog Training and Rehabilitation and she's ready now to find love once again. Fiona would love to get all the snuggles and have all the outdoor adventures that a sweet girl like her deserves. She is 9 years old and her DNA test was super crazy – black lab, american staffordshire terrier, greyhound, boston terrier and some other small percentages of mixed breeds. She is only 42 lbs so a perfect medium size. Fiona walks well on a leash with the right tools and will be a wonderful addition to the right family - one who has good leadership and is willing to have just one dog. A neighborhood crowded with dogs or an apartment setting would not be the best spot for Fiona, but if you want an alarm barker for your window station, Fiona is your girl! Fiona likes her crate and goes there easily with one command. She has some great obedience skills, and some of her favorite things are running around the fenced yard, curling up on the couch near (or on top of) her person, and showing off her smarts! She enjoys a collection of sweaters because she does not love the rain and cold. Fiona never has accidents inside and will happily accompany you outside. If a new person comes in, she can be wary at first but then will check them out and eventually give kisses. She has never had aggression with humans, but has had limited access to children and we would not place her with young, fast-moving kiddos. She hasn’t met a cat but we think she has enough prey drive that she would not appreciate a feline buddy, or they would not appreciate her ; 0 ) Fiona enjoys going in the car but does better crated in the car. With good management she can tolerate being around other dogs but doesn't always appreciate sharing resources. We know this sweet princess has so much love to give! If you are thinking of adding a wonderful pup to your life, please contact us about Fiona. We don't tell her she is looking for a retirement home, because then she might run circles around us, but she would love to cozy up to a retired human friend. If you have interest in meeting this pretty girl Fiona or any of our cuties, fill out the adoption application. Please note: we do not have a physical facility where the dogs are housed. They are cared for in our wonderful foster network throughout New England. It is our expectation that, once approved, a potential family will meet the dog(s) in the foster setting where they are feeling safe and loved. Thank you for considering rescue!

Story

Newest update: June 2026 Becky is approximately 11 yrs old but don’t tell her she’s looking for a retirement home because then she will tire you out playing ball ! We don’t think she has slowed down much at all, she is no couch potato but she is happy with a couple regular walks per day and some time to play ball! She is a beautiful 61-lb lab mix with a shiny coat and a desire for routine (and a ball!) Becky doesn’t love being crated but once she settles in we think she wouldn’t need one if she can be in a doggy proof area when you are not home. Becky is not kitty-friendly and she would prefer to live without other dogs because she likes her possessions and people to be just hers. If she’s out on a walk, she tolerates dogs just fine but doesn’t want to play with them or share. She loves to go on new adventures, whether in the woods, or walking on the rail trail nearby. This girl doesn't love chaos and has not lived with small children. She is not feline friendly and she would prefer to be the only dog in the home. She can pass dogs on a walk but does not want to share her home and people with other dogs. Her ideal home has a fenced yard with one or two humans that don’t mind indulging her love for balls. Becky is staying with our friends at Kompletely K9 Dog Training and Rehabilitation and a new family would need to continue the training that has been set up for her so that she can be the fun and awesome girl that we know she is! Did we mention you'll need a supply of balls to make Becky happy? ; 0 ) Here's a short video of pretty girl Becky: https://youtu.be/Bq6Vstv9CmU Interested in adopting Becky or any of our other sweeties? Check out our adoption application. Please note: we do not have a physical facility where our dogs are housed; they are cared for in our wonderful foster network throughout New England.
