Story
  This precious little girl is called Tristen, a beauty that is seeking a person that understands her past and wants to change her future.  This beautiful girl is only a year old and 15 pounds of such potential and yet complex emotions.  She was found on the side of a rural road in a crate and no one in sight.  She was ragged and long in need of a groom as a beautiful Shih Tzu lurked underneath all the mats. She was angry and we understand why….or do we?  She lived some sort of neglectful life with indifferent people who eventually and cruelly just threw her away.  She desires love because don’t we all?  She will growl as if to ward you off but deep down she is just wanting you to see beyond her tough exterior growl and to love her.  She isn’t really biting but she can make that scary growl while all the time scooting close to you for a pet and some love.  Confused?  Yes she is trying to figure out if she can trust some of these new humans in her life because the past humans were not nice.   This girl is so young and so easy to truly convince that her short life of no love is all just something in the rearview mirror for her.  We have transported her to a loving foster who understands the confused ones who send mixed signals.  This girl is destined to be a gem and a treasure and to one day lay down the growl and never do it again.  Until then, we are seeking an experienced human who knows that Tristen just wants love while seeming to push you away  and hoping that you don’t run.    She is housetrained…. Bravo Tristen and she can be crated but really not necessary if you are gone.  She is good with other dogs and she is living with cats although she will bark at them just to be sassy.  She is shaved down for obvious reasons and she is seeking a strong and loving family who will be patient as she learns to leave her old self at the door and put on the new self as she enters your home.  If you are interested, so are we!  Contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com   A calm and mature home is best for her….no children under the age of 12 please.   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, 2024, 9:56 pm
