Story
  Danica is a small little Toy Fox Terrier with a tender heart and a deep desire to feel safe again. This 2 year old girl who weighs just 9 pounds, was found running scared and lost through a rough neighborhood in rural Tennessee and when no one came forward to claim her, it became clear she was meant to start a new chapter—one where security and love are a given, not a question.    She is the definition of a Velcro baby. Danica wants to be right beside her person, soaking up every moment of closeness she can get. Your lap, your side, the spot right at your feet—that’s where she’s happiest. She does well with cats and seems comfortable around other dogs, but her true favorite will always be her human. Danica is incredibly sweet, a little clingy, and completely honest about her need for reassurance. After the trauma of being lost and the abandonment she’s experienced, who could blame her? She is fully potty trained and thrives when she can form a strong bond with someone who enjoys snuggles, quiet companionship, and being deeply loved. If you’re looking for a loyal little shadow who will choose you every single time, Danica is ready to give her whole heart to the person who gives her a safe place to land.  Please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com   Let us know where you live, city and state.  This girl is going to make someone so very happy and loved.       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 24, 2026, 5:58 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. 2nd Chance 4 Life Rescue is primarily a sanctuary for senior and medically needy dogs.  Every once in awhile you will see younger dogs but for the most part our dogs live out their life at the ranch at the request of their previous owners or their owners families.  We have many sponsorship dogs.  Our sponsors love to keep in touch and know how their sponsored fur buddy is doing :) When we have foster families we are thrilled to be able to take adoptable younger dogs :)  So if you have ever thought about becoming fosters please feel free to go to our foster/volunteer page and fill out an application. The Ranch located at 737 Taylor Rd., Windsor, PA is always looking for dedicated volunteers that will commit to at least a 2 hour shift per week at the rescue.  Volunteers work in play yards, help with laundry and feeding.  Some enjoy landscaping or carpentry projects and some like to bake for the healing center visitors :) Thank you for supporting our mission of caring for the elderly and medically needy souls that need us! Hello, my name is Angel — and yes, I really am living up to my name because I’m a little sweetheart! I used to live in a camper with six other dogs. We all got along, but it wasn’t a fun or safe way to live. Thankfully the authorities stepped in and saved us! Now I get to start fresh and finally learn what it’s like to be loved and valued. At the Rescue Ranch, I’m discovering grass under my paws, zoomies in the big field, and friends who make me feel special. No more dirt floors for me — 2nd Chance promised me that! YAY! Now all I need is a forever family to complete my happy ending. Could that be you? I require another small dog to play with and a fenced yard :) Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Please fill out an adoption application: Adoption application (Dog) Adoption Application (Cat)   Please understand we do not adopt out dogs to families with children under the age of 5. We do not adopt dogs to renters. Some dogs will have fence requirements while others may not. A pet is a lifetime commitment. The dogs and cats in our system find themselves there, for the most part, because their humans did not have the same loyalty to them as they did to their owners. We do not take the adoption process lightly, and will do everything in our power to make sure the animal is placed correctly the first time around for your sake and theirs. Thank you for choosing to adopt not shop!

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Theodore has the kind of big, beautiful eyes that tell the whole story. You can feel his emotions just by looking at him — curiosity, joy, love, and that quiet hope that he’s found his person. He’s a little shy at first, but once he decides you’re safe, that’s it — you’ve got a shadow. Theodore will happily follow you from room to room, just making sure he’s exactly where he belongs. (Spoiler: it’s right next to you.) This boy is an expert-level snuggler with a playful streak and the cutest little bob tail that somehow makes everything he does even more endearing. He’s doing fantastic with crate training and is settling into home life beautifully. Theodore doesn’t need to be the center of attention — he just wants to be close. He’s the kind of dog who bonds deeply, loves quietly, and will make you feel chosen every single day. If you’re looking for a loyal sidekick with soulful eyes and a heart that loves hard, Theodore is ready to follow you home.  Theodore is fostered in Reading (Berks County), Pennsylvania and will be able to join a family on or after 2/4/2026. www.mostlymuttz.org https://facebook.com/mostlymuttz PA Kennel License: 10872 PO Box 406 Gilbertsville, PA 19525 ##2619660##

Story
Alvin is a gentle little soul with the softest heart. A little shy at first, he prefers to observe the world around him before jumping in—but once he feels safe, his sweetness and silly shines through. His favorite place to be? Curled up close, snuggled right into your neck like he was made to fit there. Alvin finds comfort in the company of other dogs and loves having a furry friend nearby. He’s a calm, thoughtful little observer who takes everything in with kind eyes and a gentle spirit.  Alvin is fostered in Reading (Berks County), Pennsylvania and will be able to join a family on or after 2/4/2026. www.mostlymuttz.org Link to Alvin’s bio: https://www.wagtopia.com/search/pet?id=2619658&name=Alvin Mama Nutella and her adorable litter of “Chipmunks” — Alvin, Simon, and Theodore — just joined us and are settling into their PA foster home. Each boy has his own unique look and personality, and they’re already proving they’re more than ready to be spoiled. Fair warning: with faces this cute, these little guys won’t be available for long, so be sure to get those applications in quickly! #mostlymuttzrescue #adoptme #thechipmunks #adoptabledogs #littleandmighty #adoptable ##2619658##
