Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Squeaks — the little survivor with the biggest heart Squeaks is one incredibly lucky little girl. All signs point to her being the victim of a bird&#226&#128&#145of&#226&#128&#145prey attack and dropped miles from civilization near Camp Nelson. A utility worker happened to spot her during a repair call and walked her five miles back to safety. She arrived with severe throat injuries and likely some voice box damage — she doesn’t bark, she squeaks, which is how she earned her name. Thanks to the care of a compassionate local veterinarian, she’s now on the road to recovery. After everything she’s endured, Squeaks may carry some PTSD and will need patience, gentleness, and a calm environment as she continues to heal. But despite her trauma, she remains a friendly, trusting little soul who loves nothing more than being held close in your arms. Squeaks is proof that resilience comes in the smallest packages. She’s ready for someone who can give her the safety, love, and understanding she’s always deserved. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please complete an online application at www.cvrr.usDue to high demand  we anticipate multiple applications for each dog.

Story
Meet Lindy, a darling 6-year-old Chihuahua/Rat Terrier mix who weighs just 8 lbs but carries a whole heart full of love 💕. With her petite frame and soulful eyes, Lindy is the kind of pup who quietly sneaks her way into your heart. While we think she looks like a Chihuahua/Rat Terrier blend, we can't say for certain—it's just our best guess based on her adorable features! Lindy may be a bit shy when first meeting new people, but give her a little time and patience, and you'll see her sweet personality bloom 🌸. Once she decides you're part of her circle, her affection knows no bounds. She's a true little companion dog—loyal, gentle, and always happiest by your side. Whether you're curling up on the couch or enjoying a calm afternoon, Lindy will be right there, soaking up the love. She's also good with other nice, respectful dogs, making her a great potential addition to a multi-dog home 🐾. Lindy is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. If you’re looking for a mellow, loving friend to share your heart and home with, Lindy just might be your perfect match.
