Story
Bagheera is a petite 5 year young terrier mix with a tender heart hiding behind a brave little front. She may be a bit vocal when first approach in her kennel, but once she’s out, her body softens, her ears relax, and she begins to seek gentle affection, even trying to curl into your lap once she feels safe. Still learning to trust, Bagheera thrives with patient, experienced guidance and blossoms with kindness and calm handling. She walks nicely on leash, knows “sit,” and has shown she can coexist with other dogs when given proper structure. This sweet, sensitive girl is looking for a teen-and-up home willing to help her build confidence and show her that love can be steady and safe.

Story
  Meet Peri.   At first glance, she may look like a Cattle Dog/Heeler mix — freckles, expressive eyes, compact 33-pound frame — but her spirit is something uniquely her own. Peri is just one year old, and while she carries herself with quiet beauty, her early life was marked by hardship and mistreatment at the hands of the very people who should have protected her.   And yet… she is still loving.   Peri has spent the past several months working closely with a remarkable professional behaviorist, and the transformation has been incredible. She has learned that not all hands hurt, that gentle voices exist, and that safety can be real. She now approaches new people and experiences with growing curiosity, though she still carries a healthy caution. Her trust is not given away freely — it is earned — and that is exactly what makes the bond with her so profound.   She is deeply affectionate and incredibly sensitive. While she resembles a Heeler in looks, she is not a bold, bossy alpha personality. Peri is a soft soul. She needs a steady, protective human who will move at her pace, celebrate her small victories, and help her continue building confidence. With patience and kindness, she blossoms. And when she chooses you as her safe place, the loyalty and love she gives back are immeasurable.   Peri adores other dogs and thrives in their company. She has shown no prey drive, and her trainer/foster describes her as so docile and gentle that a respectful cat companion would likely be welcomed just fine. She is leash trained, crate trained, and housebroken — truly a wonderful little housemate who wants nothing more than to be near her person.   A fenced yard would give her the security she enjoys, and a home where she isn’t crated for long nine-hour workdays would help her continue to grow. If you work from home, she would happily sit nearby, offering quiet companionship and the kind of empathetic presence that feels almost human. Peri listens. She watches. She connects.   Her past will not disappear overnight. Healing is not a snap-of-the-fingers process. But for the right person — someone with patience, compassion, and a heart open to earning a once-broken dog’s trust — Peri will be extraordinary. She may not be a carefree Golden Retriever personality, but she will steal your heart just the same… freckles and all.   Peri is special. And the person who chooses her will be special too.   To learn more about adopting Peri, please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@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.comMarch 7, 2026, 12:24 pm

Story
Meet Owen Wilson, a friendly 11-month-old Chihuahua mix weighing around 18 lbs. He's a small dog with huge personality. Owen is young, energetic, and fearless, approaching the world with enthusiasm and curiosity. Owen is a mushy little goofball with energy and joy. Outside, he’s in his element, hopping up random steps, scaling low walls, jumping onto platforms, and generally behaving like a tiny mountain goat on a mission. He truly brings big-dog confidence and spirit in a compact, apartment-friendly package. Because he has so much energy and zest for life, Owen would thrive with an active person who enjoys long walks, enrichment, and keeping their pup mentally stimulated. The good news? He’s very smart and highly treat-motivated, which makes training both fun and productive. He’s already mastering sit and is learning that he doesn’t need to jump up to get what he wants. Approved adopters interested in Owen can email adopt@hbrdogs.com for more info. If you’re not approved yet, apply today at hbrdogs.com.

Story
Meet Muffin — a 6-month-old, 22-lb bundle of love, curiosity, and playful energy 💛 Muffin adores playing with other dogs, loves affection, and is happiest when being petted and showered with love. He truly is one of the sweetest little boys you could ask for. Muffin was found with his mom, who had given birth to a litter of seven puppies in a local park. A kind-hearted person brought the family to our partners at SOS El Arca Animal Rescue, where Muffin grew up safe, healthy, and well cared for. Thanks to the love of his caretakers, he’s now ready to find his forever home. Muffin has the opportunity to travel to New York in January, but only if we can secure an adopter or a foster-to-adopt home in time. He is a gentle, loving boy who will adapt beautifully to a new household. He’s eager to please, easy to guide, and full of joyful puppy charm. He enjoys the company of other dogs, is great with children, and is curious about cats — he’d happily try to make friends with them too. Muffin is crate trained and currently learning potty training. With continued guidance and a regular schedule, he is expected to do very well in his new home. As with all puppies, we recommend enrolling Muffin in a fun group puppy class to help him continue learning, build confidence, and make new friends. Muffin is fully vetted: • Neutered • Microchipped • Fully vaccinated • Dewormed • 4DX tested (heartworm negative) • On flea, tick, and heartworm prevention If your heart is open to Muffin, please fill out an adoption application at sosanimalwelfare.org or email us at sosanimalwelfare@gmail.com. This sweet boy is ready for belly rubs, playtime, and a forever home to call his own❤️
