Color: Merle

Chelsea is a 2-year-old Cavalier, born on November 19, 2022. Her color is described as Blenheim Chocolate Merle. This sweet girl came to us thanks to a caring good Samaritan.

With an absolutely wonderful temperament, Chelsea is a loving, affectionate companion who’s eager to be near her people. She’s naturally curious about everything you do (we lovingly call her our “little nosey Rosey”!) and brings joy wherever she goes.

Though she can be a bit timid and shy at first, once Chelsea warms up, she becomes a loyal friend for life. She gets along beautifully with her foster siblings, both dogs (fellow Cavaliers) and cats alike. She enjoys curling up with her foster sisters for a nap and loves playing “steal the mouse” with her feline foster brother. Chelsea is in good health following a recent vet visit and has just been spayed.

While she’s still a little uncertain outdoors, Chelsea walks on a leash and is making progress in adjusting to the sights and sounds around her. Indoors, her curiosity shines, but outside, she’s a bit more reserved and could use some time and patience to feel truly at ease. Chelsea has done wonderfully with house training, consistently using a doggie pad, and is working on expanding her comfort with going outside.

Chelsea is a healthy pup. She has been spayed, microchipped, and is up to date on all vaccinations.

Chelsea’s ideal forever home will be filled with love, positive interaction, and plenty of snuggles! She thrives in an environment where she can feel safe and included.

If you live within a reasonable driving distance (typically 3-4 hours) of Nashville, TN, and believe your home could be the perfect place for Chelsea to thrive, we would love to hear from you! Please complete the online application and send an email to Sandy Medd at rescuecavaliers@gmail.com to express your interest. Let us know why you think your home would be a great fit for her, and don’t forget to include your location in your message.

Here is Roscoe with his new dad…

Hi, my name is Roscoe and I’m a special 14 month old merle color Cavalier and I just want to be your forever buddy. If you’d like an adorable puppy to be by your side and snuggle in your lap, that’s me! I am a lover who loves attention in return. In fact, I’d like to follow you where ever you go. I’m also quite protective of my person and my house and will bark to alert you of any “stranger danger”. I actually came from a loving home but spent a lot of time in a crate and didn’t get enough attention so I’m super happy with my foster mom who is with me all day.  

My foster mom says I’m super sweet, very affectionate and I’m a good boy. I haven’t had any accidents in my foster home. She takes me outside in her big backyard a lot since I don’t really know how to signal when I need to “go”.  I also like to go for walks and am pretty good on a leash, too. My foster mom tells me to “sit” when other dogs walk past and I behave well. But, I do need help with socialization and being fearful of other dogs. Riding in a car is fine with me since I like to go along anywhere! If I’m left alone in the house, I’m ok and don’t get into trouble.

Did I tell you that I have made friends with my foster mom’s cat? We even snuggle together sometimes. It’s strange that I like cats but am not so sure about other dogs. I’d really like to be the only dog in my new home and I would rather not have children around all the time, either. I like a quiet, less active home since too much commotion scares me which makes me bark and growl. I’d be fine if you put me in a crate when you are having a party or lots of people around, especially children. I sleep just fine in my crate but I’d really like to snuggle up with you in your bed.  

I’ve also got a clean bill of health after being fully vaccinated and neutered since being in Rescue. The vet said I was very healthy and didn’t have any health issues.  My weight is perfect at 14.8 lbs and I’m just the right size to pick up and also travel with. I have a beautiful coat with one dark blue eye which is typical of Merle coloring and, just another thing that makes me special! 

If you want a loyal companion who loves to sit on your lap, follow you from room to room and be your snuggle buddy forever then please fill out an application to adopt me. All I need is a nice fenced in backyard, a quiet home with no children, for you to be with me most of the day and to be the only dog. Cats are okay. Once you apply, just let Sue Wesson, suewesson@snet.net, know that you are interested in me and she will review your application and give you a call if you are a good match. It would be preferable if you live within a reasonable driving distance to my foster home in Hollywood, FL.
