Story
There is nothing more fun than having a charming Rupert in your life.  This Yorkie boy is called Rup for a nick nane and he is also known as the master of the house. This Yorkie is 19 months old and weighs 12 pounds but he is big man on campus. And what a super lover he is while also being the super duper Bossman in the household. He would do best in a home without any other dogs since he has decided to be dog selective. Some of the dogs in his foster home he likes, and some of them he doesn’t.   He is destined to just be the Only Child in his future dog home. He’s been around cats and does fine but is the feline friends decide to run, he enjoys the chase.   So just be aware.  Rupert must claim your lap and he insists on being your co-pilot when you leave in the car.  He is an excellent rider.  When you leave and then come home later he is just so happy to jump and wiggle and always gives you a happy little greeting.  This happy greeting of twirling and dancing and happy smiles will make you leave your worries at the front door. He is fully vetted and microchipped.  If you haven't noticed, he has a beautiful soft coat that sparkles in the sunlight like finely spun silk threads.  If you are interested in our boy  Rupert,  19 months and 12 lbs, please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com  PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.February 12, 2026, 9:03 pm

Story
My sweet boy. He was my FURst baby and went everywhere with me. I've had him since he was 10 weeks old, and got him from a couple in Northern VA almost 5 years ago (DOB 3/2/2021) while living there without any family. He looves snuggles and cuddles and being the center of attention. I recently had a baby and my parents helped care for him as I got adjusted to motherhood. We've moved since the arrival of my son and he is having a hard time adjusting to a new home and no longer being the center of attention.Additionally, it has been hard for me to keep up with his walks and play while also attending to the baby. Roo would do best in a home of one or more adults or a family with school aged children that can snuggle him and give him lots of attention. It takes him a while to warm up to other animals, and he can be somewhat reactive among other dogs, so ideally hed be the only one in the home. Roo means sooo much to me so I'd want to make sure he went home with the right person(s).
