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

Whippet Greyhound

Male, 9 mos
Alexandria, VA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Current Location: Strasburg, VA Estimated date of birth: 7/3/25 Maple is quiet and watchful, taking in the world before deciding how he feels about it. He is still building confidence and does best when following the lead of more confident dogs. He enjoys time in the yard, plays with his littermates, and benefits from predictable routines. Maple is coming around slowly and would greatly benefit from increased one on one human interaction in a settled home. He is not a bold pup, but he is thoughtful and responsive once he feels safe. With time, patience, and gentle guidance, his personality will continue to emerge. Maple’s ideal home is calm and structured, with humans who understand that blossoming takes time. A confident dog companion is strongly preferred, and a fenced yard is recommended to support his safety and confidence. Maple is the kind of pup who will quietly steal your heart once he trusts you.

Whippet Greyhound

Female, 9 mos
Alexandria, VA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Current Location: Strasburg, VA Estimated date of birth: 7/3/25 Harvest is a gentle soul who wants connection but does not yet trust the process. She will come to her foster mom readily for petting but will be wary when meeting new people. Eventually she will come to you for chin and face scratches, which feels like a big win for her, and she will tolerate calm petting along her sides and back once she feels settled. She moves confidently between the kennel and the fenced yard and does her pottying outside like a champ. She also enjoys playing with her littermates and clearly draws comfort from their presence. That said, Harvest is still fearful of close human approach. If you walk directly toward her, she will circle away inside the pen. Being picked up scares her and she may squeal and potentially snap defensively if forced. For safety, gloves are required for any necessary handling such as crating for vet visits. She is not leash trained yet and will need time before that step is introduced. Harvest requires a fully fenced yard and a calm, patient home. A confident resident dog would help her tremendously. She is a flight risk and needs adopters who understand that progress comes through consistency and calm presence, not force. Harvest is not ready for chaos, but she is ready for the right person.
