Story
Meet our sweet Chewy! He's 3 years old and 35lbs. He is great with other dogs but not good with cats. Good with kids. Neutered and vaccinated. Chewy’s story started on a beach in Puerto Rico, where he had been cruelly dumped and left to fend for himself. With a painful skin condition and nowhere to call home, this sweet boy began hanging around a beach bar, begging for scraps of food—and, more than anything, a little love. It’s clear that Chewy was once someone’s dog. Despite everything he’s been through, he is incredibly trusting, affectionate, and polite in the house. He absolutely loves people, adores belly rubs, is wonderful with kids, and is very, very sweet with other dogs. Cats, however, are not his thing, so his perfect home will be feline-free! Today, Chewy is healthy, happy, and ready to leave his past behind. At 35 pounds, he’s the perfect medium-sized best friend - our vet guesses he is a schnauzer/border terrier mix but of course, just her best guess! Chewy went from begging for food and affection at a beach bar to finally knowing what it feels like to be safe and cared for. Now there’s just one thing missing: a family of his own. Chewy is currently in Puerto Rico and can be transported to the States for an approved adopter or foster—whichever comes first. His transport is included in his adoption fee.

She gets along great with other dogs.  If you are interested in adopting me, please fill out an application on our website  www.fohari.org  and email my foster parent for more information:  friendsoha@yahoo.com Please verify the location and readiness of this dog with us.  Because we save lives from various locations through out the United States, some dogs may not be in New England yet, nor ready for immediate adoption.   Our adoption application can be found here: https://fohari.org/application/  Our Adoption Process:   Go to our website and select the animal you are interested in. ALL animals are in foster homes as we do NOT have a  shelter where you can visit. Some animals are in foster care in New England, and some are located in other states. If the initials following the animals name are a state, then that is the state where the animal is located. If initials are not a state, then those are the initials of the foster home outside of New England and you will not be able to meet the animal ahead of time. Complete our online application You will be contacted by phone or email by the foster parent  or a member of our adoption team and will have the opportunity to find out more about the animal, and ask any questions that you have to ensure the animal is a good fit for your household. If the animal is local, you can meet the animal, but you would not be able to take the dog home until you are approved to adopt.  From our end, we will check references and schedule a home visit.  If you live in an apartment, or a condo, we will need to verify permission to own the animal from your landlord or condo board. Please let your vet’s office and references know we will be contacting them. If your  references are positive, we will schedule a home visit by a volunteer. Please try to accommodate the home visit volunteer as most  have busy schedules. Delays in the visit will result in a delay in the adoption. Once you are approved, you will receive an e-mail with your  adoption contract attached. This e-mail will have details about pick up, the balance of the adoption fee that is owed, etc. Please email your signed & witnessed contract and pay your adoption fee in full, and for any animals located out of state, you will be contacted for details about transport to New England. Once you have paid your adoption fee in full and sent back your contract, you can make arrangement to pick up your animal from the foster home or from transport depending on where the animal is located. Please bring a harness, collar, ID tag and leash when you are picking up the dog unless otherwise instructed by the foster parent. Our extensive approval process is intended to ensure the best fit between our animals and adopters. Friends of Homeless Animals (FOHA) reserves the right to deny any adoption application with or without disclosure of cause. Your adoption fee helps to cover the cost of all age appropriate vetting and transportation. FOHARI.ORG makes no explicit or implicit guarantees in reference to the health, temperament and/or the breed of the animal. The animal is adopted ‘as is’, and the adopter assumes all responsibility for treatment of any and all existing conditions or any other conditions of physical or temperament changes that may occur.

While FOHARI.ORG makes every effort to place only healthy animals, FOHARI.ORG cannot guarantee the health of any animal, and shall not be held responsible for any medical expenses that may be incurred. Rescuer will provide information received from the veterinarian exam, observations on the temperament of the animal and a best guess of the breed. Friends of Homeless Animals Inc.

Story
Armani, affectionately called Ari, is one of those little dogs who quietly steals your heart. At just 3 years old and 17 pounds, this sweet Schnauzer has discovered something entirely new in his life: what it feels like to be safe, loved, and part of a family.Ari spent most of his life living outside with an elderly couple who had taken in far more dogs than they could manage. When the local shelter became involved and asked for help, Critter Cavalry Rescue stepped in, and Ari finally found himself in a foster home. In only 12 days, this gentle little boy has made an incredible transformation. His foster mom, Taj, says he is wonderfully well behaved in the house and doesn't chew, steal, or get into things he shouldn't. He sleeps quietly through the night and is learning that a crate can be a safe and comfortable place. Even more touching, the frightened, shaking little dog who first arrived is beginning to greet his foster family and ask for affection.Ari is still learning how to relax and truly let himself become part of a family. New people can make him nervous, and he is learning to trust that the world is a safe place. But he is making progress every single day. He loves being near his people and will happily follow them from room to room, even if he hasn't quite decided that being a lapdog is his thing yet.One of Ari's greatest joys is playing with other dogs. He loves to run and romp in the yard until he is completely worn out, and then he is perfectly content to settle down for a peaceful rest. Because other dogs give him confidence and help show him the way, we believe he would thrive with a confident, playful canine companion in his new home. He is learning house manners, leash walking with a harness, and potty training, and his doggie friend is helping teach him the proper way to do things.Ari is a smart, gentle boy who is eager to please. He doesn't need someone to expect him to become confident overnight. He simply needs someone willing to give him patience, kindness, and the time to discover who he can become. In just 12 days, he has already shown us so much of his sweet personality. Imagine what the next few months could bring when this little boy finally knows, without a doubt, that he is home.Armani is fostered in Nashville, Tennessee and is ready to transport to the right family. If you think you might be the person who can help Ari finish the journey from a frightened little dog to a beloved family member, please write to 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.comSeptember 27, 2026, 4:04 pm
