Story
  “Otis the Adventurer”  Otis is a handsome 3-year-old Aussie mix with a sweet heart and a curious spirit. We know his mom was an Australian Shepherd, and while Dad remains a mystery, Otis definitely inherited the intelligence and loyalty that make this breed so special. At around 45–50 pounds, he’s the perfect medium-sized companion.  Otis is the kind of dog who makes living with a dog easy. He is house trained, well-mannered, and respectful as he lives inside the home—no chewing furniture, stealing food, or getting into trouble. He’s calm for an Aussie, incredibly sweet-natured, and great with kids. He’s the kind of dog who just wants to be part of the family and enjoy life alongside his people. He also gets along very well with other dogs, so he would likely thrive in a home with a canine buddy to share adventures with.  Recently after moving from his previous home, he found himself living without a privacy fenced yard.  Otis does have one little quirk—he’s an explorer at heart. If given the opportunity, he’d happily set off to see what the world has to offer! Because of that adventurous streak, a privacy fenced yard is important to keep him safe while he enjoys his outdoor time.  Currently he gets out of the non-privacy fenced yard and it is dangerous for him.  His family is worried but they cannot afford to do the proper fencing that he needs.  So.....they asked Critter Cavalry Rescue to help them find him a safe and secure home with the inescapable fence.        We are just looking for the home that Otis can thrive in safely.  Otis is a well-mannered dog just looking for a home where he can be loved, included, and kept safe while still enjoying the fresh air and sunshine he loves. In return, you’ll get a loyal, gentle, well-behaved companion who will happily spend his days by your side.  We think he is the best choice for a family not wanting a puppy who is in the chewing and puppy antic stage of life.  If you’re looking for a sweet, easygoing dog with a little adventurous spirit, Otis may be the perfect match.   Please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com   Tell us where you live, city and state.  We adopt to Tennessee residents, where our rescue is based and we have a transport company that takes adopted dogs to the northeastern region to adopting families almost every weekend.  Please let us know where you live when asking about Otis.       ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED.

Story
Meet Brooke! She is an absolutely gorgeous smaller standard Aussie (about 40-45 lbs)! She is a little timid at first but warms up quickly. She has not been around children or cats so it will be best for her to go to a home without either. She is around other dogs in her foster home but does take time to warm up. She will be happiest and best off as an only dog. She was used for breeding and really needs a home to just give her all the love and let her be the center of attention. She loves to run and play and is a happy, sweet girl!! She will be 6 years old in July. Brooke is fostered in the Huntsville, AL area and any adopter must come to Huntsville to meet her. She will not be transported on public transport.

Story
  It’s hard to imagine how confusing and lonely life must feel in a small, noisy shelter in the middle of nowhere. For six long months, Barbie waited in a tiny kennel in rural New Mexico, not knowing what tomorrow would bring.  Then hope showed up in the most unexpected way. A kindhearted woman who drives a 40-foot tractor trailer for a living learned about Barbie and her companion Kenny. In the middle of her route, she stopped, loaded them up, and refused to let their story end there. Thanks to her determination — and the helping hands at Critter Cavalry Rescue — Barbie finally got her second chance.  Barbie is a 3-year-old, 46-pound fluffy Border Collie mix with a heart as soft as her coat. At the vet’s office, she won everyone over with her affectionate, gentle nature. She simply wants to be close to her people — soaking up every bit of love she missed while waiting in that shelter run.  After her first grooming, she pranced around like she knew she was beautiful — clean, brushed, and finally feeling special. And she is special.  Barbie does well with other dogs her size, though smaller pups may trigger her “squirrel radar.” Mostly, she just wants a home where she can belong and she would love to have children to play with and love.  Or maybe even just to have a person or family to love deeply and faithfully. She will happily learn your routines, follow your lead, and repay you every day with devotion and joy. Barbie has waited long enough. Now it’s her turn to be someone’s everything.  Interested? Email Ccrtennessee@gmail.com to learn more.  ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED. Contact ccrtennessee@gmail.com.March 7, 2026, 12:24 pm

Bentley is a very sensitive dog. If you're upset, he senses that he'll come over and be with you. He needs a bigger yard or maybe a farm. Something like that. He does jump over fences. He gets along with cats, other dogs, chickens. He does get along with children. He just hasn't been around them very much. He loves to be petted and be close to you at all times.
