Story
Name: Lady Nickname: Chocolate Breed: Papillon mix? Long-haired Chihuahua? Anyone’s guess! Age: 2 years est. Sex: Female Weight: 10 lbs Before OMD: Found as a stray with bad cherry eye, which has since been corrected. What we love most: Sweet, loving, cuddly, and just a really lovely little dog. She’s chill and affectionate with a fun, sassy personality that comes out once she feels comfortable. What she loves most: Toys, food, people, walks, and snuggling. She especially loves plush toys and will happily take every toy out of the bin and scatter them around the house. Cuddly or independent: Definitely cuddly! Lady loves sitting on your lap while you work and curling up with you on the couch, but she’s also perfectly happy entertaining herself. Working on: Confidence with new people. She can be fearful and vocal when meeting strangers, but give her a few minutes and she warms up and shows you her sweet personality. She’s also working on stairs and becoming fully house trained. Dogs: Great with other dogs so far and starting to play with her (small) foster dog siblings. No aggression or resource guarding. Cats: Unknown but we suspect she would be just fine Kids: Dog-savvy 8 + please since she can be fearful House trained: About 75% there and continuing to improve. Crate trained: Will tolerate the crate; recently graduated from the crate overnight to sleeping in the bed. You should also know: Lady’s mischievous side is coming out. She has figured out how to open cabinets and closed doors and has recently discovered the garbage. Lady is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and heartworm negative. She can be adopted to residents of CT and surrounding states. Please complete an application if interested in adopting.

Story
Grace was surrendered to a shelter with her housemate Rocky. Both were scheduled to be euthanized within the week due to fear/anxiety/stress within the shelter. Pulled by this rescue on their scheduled D-Day, Grace had pneumonia and obvious ongoing malnutrition. Once out of the shelter environment she began to open up to her foster Mom. Pneumonia was treated, she was able to get spayed, and now she is a zig zag wiggleworm of excitement! She is silly, fun, playful, happy, fetches, wrestles, and gives kisses! You have to earn her trust before she comes to you, but that is a fair ask! Currently working on potty training and getting more weight on her and leash training. Goal will be about 25#. She will excel in a home with a fenced yard, daily exercise (she has plenty of energy now!) and people who understand her wariness of anything/anyone. She is an absolute doll that will melt your heart. She takes treats from yiur hands like a sneaky raccoon… slowly and carefully, then runs off to eat them!

Story
Kiki Dee must have been loved at one time, but it wasn't the right kind of love. Kiki is 10 years old, intact, and has mammary masses. Her health and well being were obviously neglected. Love also means vet care!  Kiki Dee bonds very quickly and just wants a person to follow and love. She is good with dogs and loves toys. In fact, she surrounds herself with toys because they make her feel safe. Kiki Dee does have anxiety after being thrown away, and we think she would do best in a home where someone has an in-home office, or retired and home more than out.  She is a sweet loving girl, and deserves a home that will love her forever.. Please go to the link to fill our our adoption application.  https://www.remembermerescueny.net/adoption-application  Remember Me Rescue does not adopt out of the local area, no transport is available.  We adopt to Long Island, Westchester, NYC area and parts of Connecticut only. Also, we have a very high volume of applications and we are all volunteers. We cannot respond to every application personally. Please make sure your application gives us a good picture of your family and the life you plan on providing a dog from our rescue. We choose a home based on the BEST FIT for EACH dog and approve on a dog by dog basis. Thank you! ##2720669##

Story
Peebles is the kind of little dog who walks into a room and somehow becomes the center of attention without even trying. This tiny 8-pound Papillon/Chihuahua mix is about 3 years old, and she has already perfected the art of making people fall completely in love with her. She is a little social butterfly who thinks the world is wonderful and everyone in it is a potential best friend. Dogs, cats, people—Peebles loves them all!And then there is her favorite thing in the world: your lap. The second you sit down, Peebles believes that is where she belongs. She is a true cuddlebug who wants to be close, loved, held, and included. She isn’t the kind of dog who is happy admiring you from across the room. She wants to be your little shadow and your constant companion.She is also an absolute showstopper. Those adorable Papillon ears, her tiny size, sweet face, and happy little personality make her incredibly hard to resist. Peebles has a way of making people smile the moment they meet her, and she seems to genuinely believe everyone she encounters is simply a new friend waiting to be loved.Peebles is still working on her house training. She was previously trained to use pee pads, so she has a foundation and is now learning to make the transition to going outside. Leash walking is also a work in progress, but she is learning. What she really wants is a securely fenced little yard where she can run, play, sniff, and enjoy some carefree time without being attached to a leash. She doesn’t need a huge yard—just a safe fenced space where she can be a happy little dog. And she absolutely loves to prance around her foster mom’s yard!Peebles is currently in a foster home in Nashville, Tennessee, and she can travel on Critter Cavalry Rescue’s weekend transport to the right forever family. She may be tiny, but she has a huge personality and even more love to give. If you have been looking for a little companion who will happily become your shadow, your lap warmer, your adventure buddy, and your very best friend, Peebles may be the little girl you’ve been waiting for.If you think your lap might be the one Peebles has been looking for, please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com.August 25, 2026, 10:47 pm

Whether you're heading out for an adventure or relaxing at home, he just wants to be by your side. He's a stellar travel buddy who genuinely enjoys car rides—just hop in, and he’s ready to roll! Here’s what makes Biscotti so special: Yard Explorer: He loves trotting around outside, sniffing out new scents, and exploring every corner of the yard. Leash Pro: Walking Biscotti is a breeze—he handles himself well on a leash and enjoys nice, peaceful strolls. Dog Friendly: He gets along great with the other dogs in his rescue group and enjoys having canine pals around. People Person: Above all, Biscotti thrives on human connection and soaking up love.
