Story
House trained: Mostly with an occasional accident Energy level: Medium Noise level: Quiet My foster guardian says: My favorite thing about Coco is that shes just THE CUTEST tiny baby! Likes: Snoozing, dozing, lazing about, relaxing   Hi, Im Coco! My nickname is Coco Bean, because Im sweeter than chocolate, and as tiny as a baby bean! Im 7 pounds of love and cuteness, and Im so excited to find my forever family! As any distinguished Chihuahua does, I have some specific preferences. I like to be picked up in a certain way (dont worry, youll learn how), and I like to have my harness put on in a certain way, and I like to sniff certain smells on certain routes on my walks! Some might call me a diva, but my foster mom calls me a pint-sized bundle of cuddles and says that Im the best girl ever and so easy to take care of. I promise I really am! Just a few quick walks a day are all the exercise I need, and Im very laid back and well-behaved at home. Im even crate trained, and fine to stay home alone when my people go to the office. Im looking for a family who wants a snugglebug of a pup. I like to spend most of my time resting and napping, preferably in someones bed, with my humans close by. I do get the zoomies on occasion, and like to run around on the bed with my toys. But after a quick play break, its back to napping for me! If youre looking to add a whole bunch of sweetness with a little bit of spice to your life, I might just be your cup of teaerCoco!!! Apply to adopt me today! Coco has a luxating patella and is on heart medication. Please visit our website www.ruraldogrescue.com to learn more about this amazing dog and to see other dogs available for adoption!

Story
  Meet Tank — the blanket-burrowing comedian with a heart as big as his personality. When Tank’s loving owner passed away, his little world turned upside down. But even through the confusion and heartbreak, this resilient 6-year-old Chihuahua never lost his spark. A kind foster stepped in to keep him safe, and now Tank is ready to start the next chapter of his life — one filled with comfort, stability, and plenty of snuggles. Tank is fully vetted, neutered, microchipped, and heartworm negative. He recently met a cat and stayed calm and polite, proving he’s just a little gentleman in a tiny package. He may try to talk you out of going in his crate but once he’s inside, he settles easily. Still, his true happy place is under a pile of blankets — burrowed into your lap, tucked behind your knees, or occasionally perched on your pillow like a tiny, furry crown. He’s affectionate, silly, and full of personality, but never in a way that overwhelms.  Tank dreams of a quiet home where he can be the center of cozy evenings and soft routines. He’d love a calm household with other friendly small dogs and no children, and most importantly, a human who appreciates a good snuggle and a warm blanket.   If you’re looking for a tender-hearted companion who will love you with every ounce of his tiny body, Tank is ready to make you his whole world.   Please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue if you are interested at ccrtennessee@gmail.com. Please mention where you live: city and state!   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.comDecember 9, 2025, 10:15 pm

Story
  Meet Dakota — a handsome 3-year-old Deer Head Chihuahua with soulful eyes and an 8-pound frame that holds a world of emotion. Just three months ago, his life was turned upside down. His loving mom became seriously ill and had to leave her home in New York to stay with friends in Tennessee. She was told Dakota and his sister, Cheyenne, could come… but months later, that welcome was withdrawn. Heartbroken and with nowhere else to turn, their mom had to let them go.   Critter Cavalry Rescue stepped in immediately—because dogs who lose everything deserve a chance to feel safe again.   Dakota is still processing all the sudden changes in his young life. He is gentle and sweet, but understandably nervous, especially after living in a place where he wasn’t truly wanted. At first, he may hesitate when you reach out—but with a little patience, he leans in, softens, and may even offer a tiny kiss to show he’s trying to trust.   He finds comfort with other dogs—especially his sister—and loves to cuddle with them or burrow under a blanket when he feels unsure. Dakota is pee-pad trained, walks well on a leash, and loves following his foster mom from room to room, quietly seeking connection and reassurance.   More than anything, Dakota needs stability, a calm home, and someone who truly understands the tender nature of Chihuahuas. With love, patience, and a kind heart, he will blossom into the devoted, affectionate boy he so badly wants to be.   At Critter Cavalry Rescue, we promise dogs like Dakota that their heartbreak isn’t the end of their story. They will learn to trust again—and we are looking for the person who will help him do just that.   If you can picture yourself being the one to help Dakota heal,contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com.This deserving little boy is ready for a gentle, loving forever home   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.comDecember 14, 2025, 11:46 pm
