Story
Parfait is an Australian Kelpie mix who is full of love and kisses. This approx 18 month old girl is the perfect size at 44 lbs. Parfait came to her foster home after being a stray. She is cautious and timid at first, but once she warms up to you, she becomes an affectionate velcro dog. She is still learning household manners, and we’re just starting to work on basic commands. However, she is housebroken and crate trained. Parfait is great with other dogs and good with cats. She loves to run around the fenced yard with the other dogs. She walks nicely on the leash and is good in the car. Parfait will do best in a home with older children who will understand when to go slowly and give her space. This good girl will need a forever family who is willing to give her time to adjust. After a couple of weeks in her foster home, she is still jumpy with loud noises and sudden movements. Parfait will need some time and love to understand that she’s safe and home. --- To apply to adopt, please follow the steps for adoption on HalfwayThereRescue.com/Adoption-Process and apply directly here: https://fs26.formsite.com/htrnp/a2k3lsooud/index.html

Story
  Izzy is a beautiful 4 year old, 55 pound Australian Shepherd beauty with a quiet, loving soul and a heart shaped by both deep love and loss. Once owned by a lovely woman who made Izzy the center of her world, our girl Izzy lost this wonderful owner 2 years ago to cancer.  A kind neighbor took care of Izzy and another dog while they lived in the now vacant home of her deceased owner.  Izzy was maintained in a very isolated and limited world of that house.  She was fed and given a few pets daily and fresh water.  Izzy's life changed forever 2 years ago in a way she couldn't understand.  The mortgage was paid on the house for those 2 years and now it has been sold and Izzy must leave immediately and by December 20th.  The clock is ticking for her life once again.  Change is about to come.  Through this all Izzy has maintained her gentle nature with a sweet, calm and afffectionate softness still showing through in her personality.  She never asks for much but offers steady companionship and devotion once she feels secure. She has lived well with other dogs and around farm animals, showing her easygoing and adaptable personality.  Izzy enjoys simple pleasures: riding quietly in the car, curling up on a couch, and being pampered with the occasional grooming session. What she wants most is a calm, consistent home and a person to call her own — someone who will let her take life at her own pace and remind her that she’s cherished. Izzy is ready for a new chapter — one filled with comfort, routine, and the kind of love that lasts forever. She has so much tenderness to give and is patiently waiting for the home where she can finally settle in and belong.  Can you foster Izzy or even better offer her a forever resting place to lay her head and to offer you her unconditional love?  Please hurry and contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com The Christmas rush is here but Izzy's life is not just about opening presents under the tree, but opening a new chapter in her life that has stability and a promise of deep love.       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 15, 2025, 10:41 pm

Story
Stella is a friendly and intelligent dog with plenty of energy. We want her to be happy and have a space where she can run around and play with other dogs. Previously, Stella lived in the mountains of Colorado, where she enjoyed a large fenced yard and had lots of friends to play with. Now, she is living in a townhouse without a yard, which has been challenging for her. As a very active young lady, she is currently feeling unhappy. Stella is a mix of Australian Cattle Dog, Husky, German Shepherd, and Golden Retriever, and she is expected to weigh around 30 pounds. She is a loving and eager-to-learn dog who picks up new skills quickly. Stella would be an amazing agility dog, as this would engage both her mind and her need for physical activity. If agility training isn't your interest, she would also thrive in an active lifestyle with an avid walker, hiker, or runner.  Stella is a very quick learner and was immediately fully potty trained.     To ensure the best for Stella, her new owners should have a yard or live on a farm, and it would be great if they have another dog and children.  Stella has plenty of energy to add playing at home to her list of activities.    Stella has been spayed and is current on all her shots until May 2026.  To be considered for her forever family and to request an application please contact Vivienne at vivienneajames@gmail.com.  APPROVED APPLICATION AND ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.  (Stella is currently in Tennessee and can be transported north upon adoption.)  July 30, 2025, 9:47 pm

Story
Hi, my name is Zara! I am a beautiful gray and white 3-year-old Australian Shepherd Poodle mix. While ladies typically don’t disclose their weight, I am about 50 lbs. If you are a smart and active person or couple looking to adopt a dog with a similar temperament, then we could be a great match! I love going for walks and would appreciate having someone who can incorporate that into my daily routine. Getting outside for exercise is something I enjoy, and I would also make an excellent running companion. Visiting the park or going on hikes would be a lot of fun, too! Not to brag, but I believe I'm quite a looker, and I’m confident that if you took me to the park, we would make lots of friends together. While I love people, I am not used to being around other dogs, so a dog park wouldn’t be suitable for me. However, I’m always up for hanging out where the people are! I’m also a bit too energetic for young children; I sometimes forget that I'm bigger than they are and might accidentally knock them over. It would be wonderful if someone in the household could work from home, as I am crate-trained but don't like spending long hours alone. I thrive on human interaction and am seeking a loving home.  I promise to return your love! If you would like to be considered for my forever family, please contact Vivienne at vivienneajames@gmail.com. Please note that an approved application and adoption fee are required. (I am currently in Tennessee but can be transported north upon adoption.)    July 30, 2025, 9:47 pm
