Story
This beautiful girl named Bright Star, needs a do-over for her Elkhound life and Critter Cavalry Rescue is determined to find that special Elkie loving person or family! This young girl is only 3 years old and she is too timid and just a little too heavy at 68lbs,  to play the way a young dog should.  At her age she should be romping and running and delighting in life on a Spring or Summer day.  Bright Star is a pure bred Norwegian Elkhound who  was removed from a breeding farm in rural Tennessee.  Her formative years were spent living in an outdoor kennel without any socialization, playtime or the comfort of a heated or cooled environment inside. She is beginning to enjoy her freedom at her foster home in New England She’s moving around with greater agility and is enjoying barking along with her foster siblings.  She is learning to be an effective Guardian of the yard when she thinks intruders might be lurking!  An important job to a Norwegian Elkhound.   When she’s relaxed, Bright Star displays that wonderful Elkie smile and tightly curled up tail. She is just an easy girl to include in the pack of dogs that the foster mom owns, of which one is an Elkie who was rescued from the same breeder farm by Critter Cavalry Rescue.   She gets along well with other dogs and is beginning to show interest in people, as she has been standoffish the first week of escaping the breeder farm.   She is a curious girl who is gradually braving exploration her new surroundings and she seems to have house-trained herself. Bravo to this smart girl.  We have delighted in watching Bright Star  come out of her shell and she continues to do so, it should be an amazing experience for whomever adopts her.  It will be important to continue to monitor her food intake to help this stunning angel enjoy the life she deserves and achieve a more normal weight!!  If you are interested in making this girl’s dream come true with a forever home and heart to love her, please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com  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.comApril 19, 2024, 6:03 pm

Story
Ginger snap here came to us after there was changes in the home. She would do best with an active family that can exercise her and help get all her energy out. She is great with kids. She loves being outside, especially when it is cold. She will vocally let you know when she wants to go outside. She is crated at night with no issues. She would definitely benefit going to a home with a fence as her last home did not have one, and she is a very outdoorsy dog. It also says she is dog friendly so as always, a meet and greet is required. (We are unsure about cats.)

Introducing Ragdoll, the spirited 6-and-a-half-year-old Norwegian Elkhound who is ready to leave her breeder farm behind and embark on a new chapter of her life. Born and raised in the confines of a breeding facility, Ragdoll's journey will hopefully soon take a heartwarming turn as she finds her forever home.  Despite her humble beginnings, Ragdoll possesses a heart brimming with warmth and an infectious zest for life. With a friendly disposition and a natural affinity for companionship, she effortlessly befriends both humans and fellow canines alike. Mischievous by nature, Ragdoll's playful antics add a dash of charm to every interaction, ensuring laughter and joy are never far behind. However, transitioning from the confines of an outdoor breeding facility to the comforts of a loving home will undoubtedly require patience and understanding. Ragdoll's new family will need to allow her the time and space to acclimate to her new surroundings, as the indoor life will present a novel experience for her. Yet, with the right guidance and tender care, Ragdoll is poised to flourish in her newfound environment, blossoming into a cherished member of the family.   We have brought over 100 Elkhounds from the breeding farm over the past year and all have blossomed in quick timing and are flourishing under the love and kindness of the devoted families who own them. With her sweet affection and endearing quirks, Ragdoll promises to bring boundless love and delight to whoever opens their heart and home to her. As she embarks on this exciting new chapter, Ragdoll stands as a testament to the transformative power of love and compassion, proving that every dog, regardless of their past, deserves a chance at a brighter future.  If you are interested in giving this rare breed of dog a home please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com 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.comApril 19, 2024, 6:03 pm
