This sweet Black Lab mix was picked up while she was swimming in the
creek on a hot afternoon. Freestyle was more than happy to accompany this new person to the shelter in hopes of soaking up the attention she’s been missing as a stray. But she really won’t get it at the shelter. We need a temporary foster or better yet, a home for this swimmingly beautiful puppy. She is estimated to be about 4 months old and has a wonderful friendly and obviously trusting temperament. When you get to know Freestyle, she will flood your heart with love. So dive in head first and please help us get this girl a home. ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED. Contact Candace at 615-661-5333 or

We are a group of dedicated rescue people who want to save as many dogs and cats from the local shelters before they are euthanized. On the average....there are only 1 out of 10 animals that get adopted from a shelter. We are dedicated to helping increase pet adoptions by offering a shelter animal a foster home to go to while awaiting an adoptive family to find them on our Petfinder website. Won't you please adopt a shelter animal? Or won't you please help us foster a shelter animal while we are looking for their perfect home? What a gift you can give a dog or cat by giving them a place to feel safe and secure....a forever home or a foster home. Won't you help us at Critter Cavalry give them a chance to have a life?

This sweet dog is wasting away in a TN shelter. She seems to be getting more and more depressed by the day. She doesn’t have a name and looks to be some type of Bird Dog, maybe 1-2 years old. She is so quiet and serene that she doesn’t even get noticed. She desperately needs to get out and have some human affection and care. If you could foster this girl or better yet give her a home, please let us know right away. Every day is like an eternity and her spirit is dying.

Rayne Nolte was in the parking lot of a Mankato, Minnesota, mall last week when she spotted Roxie, a Yorkie mix, trapped in a car. The temperature was 88 degrees with a heat index of 103, and the car's owner was gone.
You may have found yourself in Rayne’s situation before. Many pet parents believe that cracking a window is enough to keep their dogs cool in the car while they make a quick pit stop—but they couldn’t be more wrong. "Automobile temperatures can very quickly rise to dangerous levels; the average temperature increase in a parked car is 40 degrees, and the majority of this increase occurs in the first 15 to 30 minutes," says Dr. Louise Murray, Vice President of ASPCA Bergh Memorial Animal Hospital. When it’s 80 degrees outside, your car will be a staggering 114 degrees after 30 minutes!
Worse still, dogs can’t cool themselves down as easily as people, and once they overheat, they can suffer extensive organ damage or die. Luckily, Rayne made all the right moves. Follow her lead by taking these simple steps.
Step 1: Try to Locate the Pet Parent
Roxie’s people were nowhere in sight, so Rayne called mall security, who tried to find Roxie’s family through the loudspeaker. (You can ask most stores to do this.)
Step 2: Educate
Rayne couldn’t find Roxie’s pet parents, but if you do, explain the dangers of leaving a pet in a hot car. Make sure the pet gets out of the car as soon as possible.
Step 3: Call 911
Fourteen states have enacted specific laws that protect dogs in hot cars, as have many municipalities—but even in places lacking such a law, leaving an animal in a hot car may constitute cruelty.
Rayne and the mall security officers dialed 911. When the police pulled Roxie from the steamy vehicle, she was very ill but soon on the road to recovery.
Step 4: Pat Yourself on the Back
Pets are counting on people like you to save their lives. Rayne rescued Roxie just in time, and she made a full recovery! And according to the Mankato Free Press, the pet-sitter who left Roxie in the car was charged with a petty misdemeanor.

Update 7/10/11
Jack is coming back, as his adopter has to have some surgery and won't be able to take care if him (walks, etc) for a good while. This is why you adopt from a rescue; if anything comes up & you have to give the dog up, we take them back!
Jed is 1 year & 2 months (June), male, neutered, & housebroken. He is learning his name, is about 50% on his sit, stay and come, & is good with other dogs.
Jed was abandoned by his owner.

Boze is in Mt Juliet, TN.

On Fathers Day we traveled to Lafayette, TN and picked up a boxer mix male dog from the animal shelter that was due to be euthanized the next day. We just wanted to save his life. As far as we can guess, Boze is approx 1 1/2 - 2 yrs old. He is a wonderful dog with a great personality and disposition. He bonds very good with people and gets along good with other dogs. He is curious around cats. He is playful and full of energy.
Boze picks up on commands and training quickly. We have crate trained/house trained Boze and he goes in his crate very easily now (with a treat, so far) at night and when we go to the store, etc. He needs a fenced yard. We had Boze neutered, all his vaccinations and he is heartworm negative. He has a splash of white color behind his head (on top of his neck). Our intentions were not to keep him, but just to foster him until we could find a good home for him. We are elderly and we have 3 elderly pets of our own already.
Things have taken a turn for the worst for us recently....We are not able to foster Boze any longer. He is a good dog.

Baby's owner is currently living in a rental home which is being sold, and so she may have to move. She also is a nurse and works 12-16 hour shifts and feels like she doesn't always give Baby the attention that she deserves. Baby is 7 and spayed. She is house broken, but might have an accident if she gets nervous or stays inside too long (as any dog would). She isn't crate-trained but will sit, lay down, high five and has the softest bark I have ever heard. She is a very easy going dog and loves to be around kids and dogs! Never been around a cat so not really sure about that.
