Story
  Meet River Gucci, a charming 3 year old Shih Tzu male that recently had been living with a disabled man who had no car and very limited funds that did not include grooming dollars nor really food and vetting for this sweet boy.  His owner loved him and realized that River Gucci deserved a more stable and financially secure home to care for him.  We have found this perfect little guy to be a totally perfect boy that loves to be held like a baby and falls asleep in your arms as you rub his tummy.  Charming is a wonderfully accurate and descriptive word to describe River Gucci.  At just 11 lbs this Shih Tzu boy was handed over to Critter Cavalry with mats and a need for a total grooming shave down. In no time he will be a long haired luxurious gentleman that will prance and dance his way into everyone's heart.  He is resilient and pretty much housebroken and delights in being around his foster mom and all her little dogs.  He is not afraid of large dogs either.  What a brave and secure little guy he is!  Personality & Traits:  - Temperament: Sweet, calm, and very affectionate]  - Socialization: Gets along well with other dogs and enjoys the company of people]  - Energy Level: Low to moderate; enjoys short walks and plenty of lap time]  - Training: is under evaluation. Appears House-trained. Leash and basic commands not yet evaluated.Ideal Home:River Gucci would thrive in a home where he can receive plenty of attention and cozy spots to nap. He has perfect manners when meeting new humans and dogs.  He’s looking for a family that understands the grooming needs of a Shih Tzu and is committed to keeping him healthy and happy.  Ideally, he’ll have a playmate in the home or neighborhood.If you are interested in learning more about River Gucci please email 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.comJuly 17, 2026, 4:38 pm

Story
Hi, my name is Gigi! I’m a beautiful white-and-fawn wirehaired terrier, 5 years old and weighing 20 lbs. I’m a sweet girl who gets along with everyone. I’m currently being fostered with several small dogs, a couple of big ones, and some resident cats—we all get along great!   I love to run and play with everyone—we always have the best time together! A fenced yard is a must for me because I truly enjoy being outside. As an active young lady, I’d thrive in a fun, energetic family, especially with a doggie companion to share adventures.   I’m also a smart girl who learns quickly and would enjoy the challenge of picking up new tricks. If you’re looking for a loyal companion to join your family, look no further!   To learn more about Gigi and adopting her, please email Vivienne at vivienneajames@gmail.com or text 615-943-7311.  Approved application and adoption fee required.July 17, 2026, 4:38 pm

Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Bubbles and her sister Buttercup were surrendered to a kill shelter because their owners just had too many and couldn’t find homes on their own. Their mom is a long-haired Chihuahua and their daddy is a Shih Tzu and they were born on February 2nd last year so they are now a year old. Bubbles has been spayed, is up-to-date on vaccines and heartworm negative. She’s also microchipped. She weighs about 10 pounds and is full grown now. Bubbles is great at the Vet and The Groomer and loves riding in the car. She needs a little practice on the leash and she’s making great progress on house training. Bubbles is a very friendly and a super snuggler! She and Buttercup are very bonded and we would very much like to get them a home together. They are so funny together! They play and run zoomies around the house. They would do well with older children and we have not had them around cats but we feel like she would be fine with proper introduction. If you would like to give this super affectionate love bug along with her sister, their forever home, please email omlc7@hotmail.com or dogs4mylife@gmail.com.

Story
Zach is a 12 year old Shih Tzu with a heart as sweet as his adorable little face. This happy guy loves nothing more than curling up in your lap, soaking up attention, and being your constant cuddle buddy. Friendly and outgoing, Zach never meets a stranger. He enjoys people of all ages and is always ready to make a new friend. He ignores the cats in his foster home and gets along fine with other dogs, but if Zach had his way, he'd be the star of the show. He can be a little bossy with canine roommates and would love a home where he can be the one and only dog receiving all the attention he deserves. Zach is both house trained and crate trained, making him an easy addition to the right home. He has a wonderful personality, a loving nature, and plenty of affection left to give. Zach's adoption fee is $200 and includes his neuter, vaccinations, parasite prevention, and microchip. To apply to adopt Zach, visit www.fullcirclerescueandsanctuary.com.
