Story
 Rocket was born in October 2015. January 2016 we purchased him from the Yuppie Puppy pet store which specialized in getting dogs from “good breeders” not puppy mills. We had a previous dog for 17 years and the house just seemed empty without a dog. The whole family was in alignment to get a new dog and understood the commitment to training a puppy.Rocket’s early years were spent at home and our children were in 3rd and 7th grade when he arrived. He enjoyed playdates in the yard with the kids and their friends. Playing ball, hide-and-seek and building forts. Rocket would just runaround with the kids and always wanted to be involved. My husband and I work traditional 9-5 jobs and the kids went to school.Some days Rocket would go to “puppy daycare” which he thoroughly enjoyed. In true Jack Russell fashion he would try to rule the place. Walking on the perimeter top of the fence as if he was on patrol. We used to joke with the proprietors and say he thought he was the mayor.When Rocket was about 4 we noticed he developed some environmental allergies. Pink belly and chewing at his feet. We brought him to the Vet and he needed an allergy shot. We also like to have rockets nails trimmed. Otherwise they split and he hurts his toes while running around and digging. He gets this allergy shot seasonally in the fall and spring, essentially 2x a year.Rocket has his own room (the dining room which is gated) with a crate and has NEVER slept in a bed with us or our kids. Occasionally there is a nap on the couch, but for the most part everyone has their own bed and he sleeps solidly through the night 7-8 hours.  Sometimes Rocket wakes up grumpy and it takes him a few minutes to adjust. Just give him space and a moment to wake up and he is fine. April 30, 2024, 6:02 am

Story
Tilly is about 1.5 years old and she is about 25-30 pounds. She is house trained, and crate trained. She is a shy girl and she takes a few days to warm up, but once she does you will hang her moon and stars!!! She also gets along with her foster sisters and loves to clean their earsWe have had her since the end of December, and we are so hoping to find her a home!!! If you want a cuddly dog, she is it for you!This sweetie is still looking for her furever home. Things to know about silly Tilly: -cuddles - wants constant approval -loves to run and play -enjoys all things to eat -loves walkies -loves her foster sisters (she's always cleaning their ears) I just don't know how this sweetie pie hasn't been adopted yet. All she wants is love!She is a little over a year old and about 20-25 pounds! House trained! She’s perfect!Silly Tilly is popping in to say hi! We love this girl so much. She is loving, smart, and downright loyal. It absolutely blows my mind that she has not been adopted yet. She deserves a family and someone who will give her all their love. She's doing amazing right now with us, she loves her foster siblings and foster parents.Tilly's favorite spot is next to foster mom! This sweetie is still looking for her furever home. Things to know about silly tilly: -cuddles - wants constant approval -loves to run and play -enjoys all things to eat -loves walkies -loves her foster sisters (she's always cleaning their ears) -shy girl who needs patience to warm up and lots of love. I just don't know how this sweetie pie hasn't been adopted yet. All she wants is love!I became tilly's foster about two weeks ago. This girl is the sweetest baby. All she wants is love and cuddles! She was very shy at first, but quickly adjusted to our lives. She loves to play with our doggos, eat all the food and cuddle on the couch she's my cuddle bug. She's up for adoption, but it will be very hard to see her go!Miss Tilly loves enjoying the sun on the porch while I work. She is doing great with my crew even my 2 year old toddler. She just goes to her crate if annoyed. She’s is a terrier mix and super sweet! Still a little shy when other dogs are around but if it’s just me and her she’s all about being rubbed and held. She loves to run and play but also enjoys cuddling on couch and settles down quickly. She eats well but hasn’t been crazy about my carrot and green pepper treats. she weighs about 12 lbs and is up to date on all shots and preventatives. She’s just a perfect dog! Needs a fence to run around in!Tilly is making herself at home. Still timid yet submissive and making progress in her own time. Loves my Boston Terrior and they take turns cleaning each others ears in my office everyday while I work. Oh what a girl. Tilly found herself at a shelter and she had pushed the wrong buttons so she needed out before it was too late Till is a young girl that is full of play. She considers her human as one of the things she plays with and sometimes it is too rough. Who would blame her since she clearly had never be given the choice to make right decisions.Tilly needs an active owner. Some one who love the outdoors and can include her. She would be a great jogging, hiking camping bubbly She would be too much for children right now, but if she has the right owner that would change.

Story
Lil Klinger has a name that suites him to a T!  It means “courageous” and he is such a Lil courageous guy indeed.  But to add 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 and we have delighted in see what a truly beloved boy he is.  This dog would fit in anywhere, anytime, anyway.  Lil Klinger 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, Klinger 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 Klinger 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 Klinger and he is one of the cuter and definitely the nicest small dog you could find or consider to add in your life. 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. ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED. Contact ccrtennessee@gmail.com.April 29, 2024, 9:05 pm

Sweet Dixie was a adopted a couple of years ago to a very sweet lady in New Jersey. Sadly she unexpectedly passed away a couple of months ago and as she had no family, Dixie came back to us. she has adjusted very nicely but she needs to have a family of her own. Dixie was a street dog back in the day. she came to us with a litter of pups who were born under a trailer. She was a great mama and she was very thankful to have a stable home. She is spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated, crate trained and ready for immediate transport. Wouldn't you love to give her a forever home! ADOPTION FEE $250
