Story
Romeo and Juliet were both street dogs, traveling everywhere together, looking for food and love. They were finally picked up by animal control in Georgia where they remained on a stray hold until they could be released. Animal control soon realized that Juliet was pregnant by Romeo so they called us to see if we could get them out of there before she gave birth. We had them immediately transported here to Tennessee and two weeks later she gave birth to 7 puppies. Sadly one was stillborn but the remaining 6 are all healthy happy babies who have all been adopted. Now it's Juliet's turn. She is crate trained, fully vaccinated, microchipped, spayed and heart worm negative. Juliet is very high energy but extremely lovable. She is excellent with my 3 year old granddaughter and as you can see in the photo, fine with cats. Wouldn't you love to give her a loving and forever home! PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE LOCATED IN TENNESSEE AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MEET OUR PETS PRIOR TO ADOPTION ADOPTION FEE $700

Story
Maxwell Smart is just that…a smart, bright, loving and playful little 11 month old, Shih Tzu/Poodle boy that is looking for a great home that will provide a ton of fun and another youngish playmate sibling.  This boy came from a senior couple who could not afford to help fix his little hip that needed some surgery to make him walk perfectly.  The vet they had suggested euthanizing this boy but they put a plea out there for help!  Maxwell Smart is in great walking and hip health now thanks to his FHO surgery and a wonderful foster nurse who loves him dearly.  This boy is loving and open to new friendship and makes friends everywhere he does.  Are you ready for a little “Maxwell Smartie Pants” to enter your life and live happily ever after?  If so, please write to Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.March 26, 2024, 11:20 pm

Story
Ruby is a funny, affectionate and playful girl who loves to cuddle, get belly rubs and go on walks. She is a friendly girl who loves meeting new people - especially if they have treats! Give her a few minutes and she'll be climbing into your lap for kisses. With her lovable and playful personality, she is sure to make new friends in no time. Ruby is a funny and charming dog, who is very gentle and would fit into a loving family environment. She is an adult dog - but we're not sure if she's a puppy or a senior! - so if you're looking to welcome a new four-legged member into your family, consider adopting Ruby. She can't wait to give you kisses!
