Story
We're looking for a special home for this sweet lady. Her name is Scrub Mommy, and we think that she's a 2 year old Blue Heeler/Cattle Dog mix. Scrub Mommy is unfortunately very anxious being here at the shelter. She'll need some extra time and TLC in her new home to help her adjust to a new environment. But once she's comfortable, she enjoys cuddling up to her people and LOVES doing zoomies outside! Scrub Mommy seems to prefer doggy friends who are around her size or more on the calmer side.If you are interested in meeting this pet, please call us at (804) 748-1683, option "2", to schedule an appointment. Our hours are Monday - Friday, 10:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. and Saturday, 10:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. Primary Color: Brown Secondary Color: White Weight: 32.8 Age: 2yrs 0mths 2wks

Story
Leo is an incredibly loyal Australian Cattle Dog mix looking for an active home! Adopted as a puppy in 2017, he's up-to-date on vaccinations and in good health. Our upcoming move with small children means we can no longer meet his needs. Leo excels off-leash—staying close and checking in regularly. On trails, he scouts ahead before returning to make sure you're following. He comes immediately when called and is a true "velcro dog" who loves affection. Leo is good with other dogs and children (note: he has a herding dog's natural nipping instinct) and is fully house-trained. His favorite activity is playing with his blue ball, which he'll chase for hours! He would thrive with someone active who can give him the exercise, companionship, and love he deserves.

Story
  Dodge is a toung, strikingly handsome Blue Heeler/Lab mix with a bright spirit to match his good looks. About one year old and weighing 43 pounds, this mostly black shiny boy has a beautiful gray-speckled chest that gives him a regal, eye-catching look. With longer legs and a slimmer build than a typical Heeler, he carries himself with confidence and athletic grace. Whatever breeds make up his DNA, one thing is certain — Dodge is sweet, playful, and incredibly smart.   Dodge’s story began in the countryside, where he arrived at a rental home alongside a female Heeler mix and their six puppies. When the family couldn’t keep dogs, a cattle dog rescue stepped in to save the puppies, the mama was rehomed, and Dodge found his way to Critter Cavalry Rescue so he could be fully vetted and matched with the perfect home. Still very much a puppy at heart, Dodge brings goofy charm, happy energy, and a love of life wherever he goes. A fenced yard and an active household will help him burn off his enthusiasm and enjoy the adventures he craves.   He gets along wonderfully with dogs of all ages and sizes, is respectful of cats, and would likely be a hit with kids who can keep up with his playful nature. Dodge is learning leash skills quickly and would make an excellent walking partner. He’s eager to learn, quick to please, and happiest when he’s close to his people, watching over them and soaking up attention. With continued training, Dodge is going to be an incredible lifelong companion. If you’re ready for a fun, smart, and loyal sidekick, email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com and tell us your city and state. Transport is available from Tennessee to the northeastern states. 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.comJanuary 6, 2026, 11:52 pm

Story
Maisie is the sweetest girl. She loves to play. She loves making new human and dog friends everywhere she goes. She needs someone with a large, fenced in yard or a large plot of land. She has lots of energy and needs space to run. Maisie will need a structured environment. She is very smart and trainable, but she has endless energy and needs tasks to put her mental energy to use. She would make a great dog for agility training, as a working dog, or even someone who wants a jogging/biking partner! She would also absolutely adore having a dog friend at home to play with!!! She is extremely focused and driven. She would not do well in an apartment or small space. She is afraid of younger kids (no aggressive behaviors) but would do well with kids over 8 years old. She truly is an amazing dog and deserves a great home! Please contact with questions or if you would like to see more pictures/videos. Maisie will come with all necessary supplies (crate, toys, leashes, etc.)

Story
PICKETT Pickett was born in 2015. He is about 45 pounds, mostly black. He is a mystery mix. LOVES EVERYONE! He gets along with all people - he's a hugger and kisser Loves other dogs - moderately playful. He does try to hump the first time meeting, but is easily corrected. Loves cats. Great on the leash. And in the car. He's not young, but has tons of puppy like energy. LOVES toys and bones. Good house manners. HOWEVER, when unsupervised he should be crated or he may chew inappropriately. He was with a rescue for the last seven years and was never chosen somehow - despite his super friendly adorable personality. That rescue closed, he went to a local shelter, and knowing him personally, I had to bring him here HE DESERVES A WONDERFUL HOME. He's a hoot!
