Story
Adopted from a rescue about 10 years ago We live in a house with a fenced in yard out in the country for most of that time. I moved to Richmond for a job and they don’t love apartment life. I think it would be better if I could be with them more but I work long hours. Sweet dogs but do bark quite a bit.

Story
Kokomo, Male, Chihuahua mix**10 pounds**Courtesy Posting** Kokomo is being fostered in the Richmond VA

area. If you are interested in Kokomo, please go to www.momsva.org and complete an application. Meet Kokomo, an endearing senior dog bursting with personality! At 10 1/2 years old and weighing in at nearly 10 pounds, he’s the perfect blend of obedience and alertness. Once Kokomo finds his special human, his loyalty is unwavering. Kokomo loves to be by your side—whether he's sitting next to you or sleeping in your bed, though he prefers not to be a lapdog. His delightful character makes him a truly unique companion, especially when it comes to treats! This lovable pup is both housetrained and crate trained, and he has no known health issues. Kokomo would thrive as the only pet in a calm household, as he is a bit of a loner and is not suited for homes with children. With plenty of love to offer, Kokomo is eagerly awaiting the right person to share his affection with. If you are interested in Kokomo, please go to www.momsva.org and complete an application. **Courtesy Posting**

Story
  &#226&#156&#168 Mimi – A Tiny Girl Ready for a Big New Beginning   Mimi is a beautiful black-and-tan Chiweenie girl whose sleek little coat shines brightly in the sunlight. At just 4 years old and 6.6 pounds, she is a petite sweetheart who has already been through more change than any little dog should have to endure. Mimi originally came from a home where her owner’s life had begun to spiral out of control. With love and honesty, her owner made the heartbreaking decision to surrender Mimi and her younger Chiweenie companion, GiGi, knowing they deserved stability and care she could no longer provide. The girls were turned into a small-town shelter — and thankfully, Critter Cavalry Rescue stepped in and pulled them to safety, promising them a brighter future. Right now, Mimi is a quiet, gentle girl, likely still processing the loss of her previous life and her mom. She does need to gain about 3 pounds to reach a healthier and more typical weight, but with proper nutrition, care, and love, she is expected to thrive beautifully. Mimi is leash trained and does wonderfully with other dogs and cats. While she isn’t telling us definitively if she’s fully housebroken at the moment, we strongly suspect that she either is or would happily use a pee pad with gentle guidance. She is crate trained, but in a calm home, a cozy dog bed in a small room may be all she needs when her family is away.   This sweet girl has unlimited potential to become the most cuddly, loving companion in your life. Mimi isn’t asking for much — just what every pretty little girl dog deserves: to be cherished, protected, and spoiled as she begins this new chapter. If Mimi sounds like the missing piece in your heart and home, please contact 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.comJanuary 17, 2026, 10:46 am
