Atsushi, which means “compassionate warrior” in Japanese, is here to prove that he definitely lives up to his name… well, at least the compassionate part. He is an expressive and loving Ruby Cavalier whose smile will melt your heart. Born on 04/27/2020, Atsushi, also called “Sushi” by his foster family, is 1.5 years old and was turned over to Cavalier Rescue USA when his family recognized that he needed a forever home that could provide more time and attention.
Atsushi knows all basic commands and is well-behaved, always ready for his next “job”. He absolutely loves to play with toys, wrestle with his foster brothers and friends, and explore new places. He is fully house trained and is good about indicating when he needs to go outside. Atsushi is a love bug who has never met a stranger and he’s always looking for the next warmest lap to snuggle in. He loves to give kisses to his people and when he’s feeling very comfortable, he shows off with the cutest little love nibbles.
Currently Atsushi lives with two pup foster brothers and really enjoys spending time running and playing with them, while also taking his own down time. Atsushi is crate trained for both overnight sleeping and being left alone for extended periods of time. Atsushi is an incredible Cavalier, a wonderful dog all around and he can’t wait to bring joy, love, and laughs to your family!

Update 5-3-22: We think we have found a great home for this pup so aren’t taking more applications for her for now. Thank you!
Hello, my name is Miracle! I’m three years old, born 1/22/19, and loving my new life. Until recently I lived with a breeder and didn’t know much about playing and being outside. My foster family lives on a farm and I am not scared of horses or chickens, nor do I chase them, I love to watch.
My main focus is exploring and looking for my next “good girl” reward. I am learning that lap cuddles are wonderful. Walks are new to me but I am getting the hang of it quickly, and if you call my name I will come running back immediately. Toys are something I haven’t had and I will play occasionally but my favorite thing to do is nap with my foster sisters.
Foster Mom here – Miracle has came so far in the short time since she has been placed with my family. At first she didn’t want to walk on grass and now she runs like the wind, but will always come back quickly when called. She is great with other dogs and would be best if she had a buddy to show her the daily routine.
When you first meet Miracle she is a bit standoffish, but after just a few minutes her sweet Cavalier King Charles personality shines brightly. She has spent time with my grandchild ages 5, 3 and 1, and does great with my 5 year old grandaughter. Miracle is a bit scared of my two youngest grandchildren, I feel she would fit best with children over 5. Miracle is a very sweet, beautiful girl and a true Velcro dog. Miracle is waiting for her perfect family to love forever.

Here is Rosie with her new mom…
Hi I’m Rosie! My foster mom says I’m a sweet girl! I love to follow my foster mom around wherever she goes. I also love my toys, treats and attention.
I am housetrained and will let you know when I need to go outside. I am also crate trained. I am 7 years old and weigh 17.5 lbs. Healthwise, I’m currently on ear drops for allergies and 2.5mg of Vetmedin twice daily for a heart murmur that will cost approximately $40/month.
I must go to a home where I will be the only pet. I like to be the center of attention and do not do well with other pets. I love people though. My ideal home will have a fenced in yard and a loving person or family to call my own. Having someone home with me most of the time is important and having a sitter if you are traveling is too.
If that’s you, please fill out our online application if you haven’t already and then email Rescue Coordinator Miriam Long at miriamlongrn@gmail.com so she knows to read your application. Thank you!
Scarlett is a 6-year old Ruby Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who everyone loves right away because she is sweet, quiet, snuggly, and loves to spend time with her human family. She politely introduces herself to every person she meets and would be best friends with all if time and circumstances allow.
At 19.5 pounds, Scarlett is at her ideal weight. Details on her past are scarce, but she is up-to-date on her vaccinations and has a healthy heart. She has a pending spay/dental scheduled at the end of April and will be adopted after recovery. Scarlett eats her food and supplements without fuss and will take her allergy pill right from your hand. She is easy to train with small pieces of kibble and is even calm during nail trims!
Scarlett will go in her crate easily when you leave your home or can be left out to nap calmly until her owner returns. She has done very well with potty training and will signal when she is ready to go outside by cuddling up and staring in your eyes. As long as she is taken out several times per day, any chance for accidents will be rare. She’s very smart and picks up commands after one or two times – particularly when treats are involved.
Scarlett walks easily on a leash but make sure you keep a firm grip or keep her in a fenced yard because if she sees a critter, she is likely to take off like a freight train! She may bark two or three times to warn you of a strange sound but is otherwise quiet. She is not interested in interacting with other dogs and prefers to be queen of the yard.
Scarlett would flourish in a home where her person or people are home most of the day. She will be happiest as the only pet because she wants all the love and attention. She loves to sit next to you at all times, preferably on your lap or touching you. She adores sleeping in the big bed with her humans and going on adventures in the car too.
Scarlett the Ruby is a loveable lady who is gentle, calm, appreciative, and a true lap dog. She travels well and will stay close to her person. She will happily walk outside with you, snuggle in soft spaces, and generally be wherever you are. She cannot wait to be your furry best friend.
