Story
Meet Grinch – A Gentle Soul Ready for His Forever Home Grinch is a sweet, resilient 4-year-old, 40-lb boy with a calm spirit and a kind heart. He has a gentle, thoughtful nature and approaches the world with quiet curiosity. Grinch truly enjoys companionship — he’s the kind of dog who bonds deeply and becomes a loyal friend for life. Grinch was surrendered by his owner when she could no longer afford to care for him and three other dogs. It was a heartbreaking but loving decision. She brought them to our rescue partner, SOS el Arca Animal Rescue, where Grinch has received shelter, stability, and compassionate care. Despite the uncertainty in his early life, Grinch has remained gentle, trusting, and deeply appreciative of kindness. With consistency and love, he truly blossoms. Grinch does well with other dogs and loves to play. He enjoys going for walks, and when volunteers take him out for even a 15-minute stroll, his joy is undeniable — he wiggles his hips side to side the entire time. He’s simply so happy to explore the world! He also knows how to relax and cuddle. After some fresh air and adventure, he’s content to settle in close and soak up affection. Grinch would be a wonderful companion for someone who enjoys walks in a park, outdoor adventures, exploring the city, and quiet cuddle time at home. He would thrive in a home with another playful dog, but he could also be perfectly happy as the only dog, soaking up all the love and attention. Anyone who gives Grinch a chance will be rewarded with a deeply loyal, loving companion — the kind of once-in-a-lifetime dog who never forgets the kindness shown to him. We would love to bring Grinch to New York on our March transport, but he can only make the journey with a committed adopter or foster-to-adopt home in place. Grinch has already endured too much uncertainty in his life. His next chapter deserves security, love, and belonging. Grinch is neutered, microchipped, fully vaccinated, heartworm tested (negative), dewormed, on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention, and crate trained. If you’re looking for a gentle soul who will truly appreciate the home you give him, Grinch may be the perfect match. Please fill out our adoption application at sosanimalwelfare.org and email it to sosanimalwelfare@gmail.com with any questions. Grinch is ready for his fresh start — and for a family who will never let him feel abandoned again.

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.comFebruary 14, 2026, 11:43 am

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 Jaida 3 years old • 30 lbs Jaida is a gentle, affectionate soul with a loving heart and a calm, reassuring presence. She truly enjoys being close to her humans, soaking up affection, and offering quiet companionship. Jaida’s journey hasn’t always been easy, but through it all she has remained trusting, kind, and resilient. She came into our partner rescue, SOS El Arca Animal Rescue, and has shown nothing but gratitude as she patiently waits for her forever home. Her siblings—Eliza, Thomas, Karla, and Dina—have already found loving homes in New York, and we would love nothing more than to see Jaida join them and start her own happy chapter there as well. We’ve promised Jaida that her next chapter will be filled with stability, love, and security. This lovely girl is adaptable and would do well in many living environments. She has a beautifully balanced temperament, gets along well with other dogs, is gentle with children, and is neutral with cats—making her a wonderful match for a variety of families and lifestyles. Jaida can be a bit shy at first, so she will thrive with a patient adopter who can help build her confidence through a stable routine, gentle guidance, and continued socialization. A home with another calm, friendly dog could also be a great help in showing her the ropes and boosting her confidence. Jaida has the opportunity to travel to New York in January, but only if we can secure a foster-to-adopt home or a committed adopter ready to welcome her with open arms. Could you be the one to change her life? Jaida is spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated, dewormed, 4DX tested (heartworm negative), and on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. Jaida is ready to offer loyalty, love, and companionship to her forever family. If you’re ready to open your heart and home to this special girl, please fill out an application at sosanimalwelfare.org or email us at sosanimalwelfare@gmail.com.
