Story
Ramesses / Pascal really needs a new BEST FRIEND! This 4 year old 15lb RAT TERRIER mix has been through so much, and despite all this, he is so gentle and sweet, and loves all dogs, cats and people! He was rescued from the shelter two and a half years ago...his spirit was broken and he was very ill. A few months at Hotel Steve and he was thriving but still scared and nervous so he was returned twice before he found the man who would love him more than we could have wished for .. This precious little boy finally knew what love felt like and he went from Pascal to a strong pharaoh named Ramesses ... Sadly he was at home alone with his dad and best friend when fate was cruel and he lost the most important person in his world. ***Blessings to Julius Hawkins Jr. RIP whom we lost too young *** We are grateful to everyone who helped get him back out of the shelter so he could be at Hotel Steve while he recovers. Ramesses is housebroken and paper trained, up-to-date on vaccines, microchipped and neutered. He is the most amazing sweet and gentle baby boy. If you want a true ride or die forever companion... This is your guy. Ramesses is located in NYC.

We had an unexpected litter (7 total, 2 boys and 5 girls) born on 3/5/26. I have the parents, the mom is a rat terrier she weighs 32lbs and the dad is a pure breed yorkie and he weighs about 10lbs. I live in an apartment and can't keep these puppies. The puppies haven't been to the vet yet i'm hoping i can get them all seen in the next couple of weeks.

Story
Incoming: Velcro Dog Alerts! 15 pounds of snuggles, with absolutely NO concept of personal space. *And honestly, what could be better?! ) • Dominic / 2 years old / 15 lbs / Rat Terrier mix / Crate trained + almost fully house trained • Professional cuddle specialist! When he climbs into your lap (which is often), it’s officially nap time. • Tiny self-appointed security guard who likes to “inspect” new people at first (all drama, zero danger ) • Takes neighborhood watch duties VERY seriously - especially when people dare to walk past the house • Equal parts toy enthusiast and couch potato who plays hard, naps even harder • Needs a few to adjust to other dogs (not a fan on leash!), but was fine down south with canine friends • Microchipped, vaccinated & neutered. Located on Long Island. ##2720668##

Story
  Imagine driving down a rural country road on the way to pickup groceries, when out of the brush comes 2 walking Halloween skeletons.  That is what  Benjamin and his partner Olive looked like when we took them home.  Benjamin is a sweet JRT mix that is about 2 years old and weighs 27 lbs. He loves to play and destuff all of his stuffed animals. When his energy runs out, he will snuggle next to you on the couch. He is a smart boy and will keep you on your toes. Benjamin is learning house manners and will stay in a crate. Benjamin walks well on a harness but beware of squirrels. Because of his high prey drive, absolutely no cats!!! A fenced yard is highly desirable but not a necessity. he can always go out on a leash but never off leash when not in  fenced yard .      If you love the energy and personality of a jack russell, then benjamin, we'll check all the boxes that you are looking for.  Please email critter cavalry rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com.    please inform us where you live, city and state since we R based in Tennessee. But we do transport out of state to the northeastern corridor.      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.comMay 13, 2026, 10:46 am

Story
  When Violet’s owner suddenly passed away, her world was turned upside down. Her single elderly mom cared deeply for her and was they were constant companions. She was left in a place of deep uncertainty, unsure of what would happen to her. Sadly, the family she was left with showed her little attention or affection and simply wanted to pass her off to someone else. She languished for 5 months after the sad death and in that time she lost weight and became very depressed.  That’s when Critter Cavalry stepped in—to show Violet that she was wanted, valued, and loved.When she arrived, Violet was not only painfully thin and very scared. It seemed as though she hadn’t felt a kind hand or a gentle hug in quite some time, nor known the comfort of consistent care. Despite this heartbreaking start, Violet surprised us all. Day by day, she began to brighten—eating more than you’d ever think her little body could manage and slowly gaining the weight she so desperately needed.As she filled out, her personality began to emerge. With each passing day, she became more playful and curious. Violet is a quiet, gentle soul. She is a beautiful black and white Rat Terrier mix and weighs about 20 pounds.  While she often prefers to observe from a distance as the other pups roughhouse, she’s perfectly content to quietly coexist—snuggled up on the couch, soaking in calm companionship.Violet is learning how to live life again, rediscovering trust and comfort at her own pace. She would thrive with a calm, patient, and understanding family who can continue to show her what safety, kindness, and love truly mean. What a joy she could be for a retired couple or single woman who wants to be the center of Violet's adoration and love.  She deserves a resurrection in life and a solid promise of a forever place to live out her many years that she has ahead. Housebroken, non-destructive when home alone and good with other dogs and cats, this girl is a peaceful soul that will bring so much to your life.  Please write to 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.comMay 13, 2026, 10:46 am
