Story
This handsome fellow and his siblings came in to rescue last winter after they were dumped on a back country road. Their mother was found deceased, so we took the puppies in to try to save them. They were very sick initially but are very healthy now. Big boy is a gentle boy but does love to run and play with other dogs. Big boy was the largest of the puppies, but his siblings have caught up to him. He has done amazing with his house and crate training. He is so deserving of a wonderful home to call his own. He is fostered in East TN, but transportation is included in the adoption fee and provided by Rescue Riders LLC. Please let me know if you have any questions. Please email us for the link to the adoption application (His adoption fee is only to cover transport and health certificate to travel to another state.)

Story
  Princess Oreo truly lives up to her royal name. This stunning black-and-white beauty is a perfect example of how magical a blended breed can be. Soft as a cloud and on her way to becoming delightfully fluffy, she looks like an innocent little powder puff — but don’t let that fool you. There’s a playful sparkle and just a touch of rascal in this royal girl.   Born around December 4th as one of eleven well-loved puppies, Oreo had a devoted momma who made sure every baby thrived. No one was left out at mealtime, and it shows in her sturdy build and confident spirit. While we never met mom or dad, we believe Princess Oreo is predominantly Aussie — and she carries that intelligence and athleticism beautifully.   She is sweet and affectionate, yet strong in personality. She loves her toys, adores wrestling with her siblings, and is currently in that adorable puppy stage where gentle “nibbles” are her way of exploring the world. She’s playful, bold, and beautifully balanced in temperament.   Princess Oreo would thrive with a family ready for fun — children, active couples, or anyone who appreciates a smart, engaging companion. A fenced yard would be a wonderful bonus for safe zoomies and play sessions.   She is crate trained and already learning about housebreaking. She’s still a baby, so consistency and patience will help her shine — and she absolutely will. This litter is known for being loving, smart, and eager to bond deeply with their people.   If you’re looking for fluff, sweetness, and just the right touch of spirited charm, Princess Oreo is waiting.Email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com to make this little royal part of your family.   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.comFebruary 25, 2026, 2:27 pm

Story
  Tender Teddy is exactly what his name promises — pure sweetness wrapped in the softest black and white curls you’ve ever seen. Born on December 4th as one of eleven puppies, this handsome Aussie mix boy may be a bit of a mystery when it comes to his lineage. We never met his mom, but we’re told she was a petite 35-pound brown and white girl with short fur — and these fluffy babies clearly took after their handsome daddy!   With his luxurious, curly coat and soulful eyes, Teddy is going to grow into one stunning dog — likely around 40 pounds full grown. But what truly makes him special isn’t his looks… it’s his heart.   This boy is extraordinarily loving and calm for a puppy. Teddy gently licks other dogs and puppies as if he’s blessing them with kindness. When you carry him, he gazes into your eyes like you are the most important person in the world. He adores being held like a baby and melts right into you. His peaceful, tender spirit is something you don’t see every day.   Teddy is confident in new environments and did beautifully at YMCA Puppy Yoga this past week — soaking up attention and calmly enjoying every moment. He isn’t fearful; he simply wants to connect and love.   He is crate trained and is working on housebreaking (as expected for his young age). He’ll be ready for adoption on March 6th and is eager to find a family who will treasure his affectionate, easygoing nature.   Critter Cavalry Rescue transports from Nashville, TN to six northeastern stops to meet adopters and their new best friends.   If you’re ready for a calm, cuddly, devoted companion, email ccrnewengland@gmail.com ASAP. Tender Teddy is ready to steal your heart.   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.comFebruary 25, 2026, 2:27 pm
