Meet Cricket!

Today’s Featured Friday Pet is Cricket!

In many ways, 7 month old Cricket is many people’s dog dream come true. A young pup with lots of energy and training potential, but that’s already housebroken and crate-trained…yes please! Think of her as a teenager working through her those awkward stages. With the right guidance, she’s sure to blossom into a wildly amazing and successful young woman. She’s got the goods, and you’ve got power to make her the best she can be, all without an expensive college degree!

Even though Cricket may not be all supermodel fancy looking, you’d be wrong not to give her a second look. A high-energy and happy girl, Cricket would make an awesome dog for anyone that loves to hike, run or that wants a companion for their active lifestyle. She loves a stuffed animal or puzzle feeder (math is her favorite subject), and enjoys bouncing around our yard with her favorite toy and not a care in the world. She loves people, all of them, and enjoys other playful dogs too. When we stop and think about it, there’s not a whole lot this girl doesn’t love, and who doesn’t love that? Because of her exuberance, we think Cricket would do best in home without tinyhumans™, so dog-savvy kids 12ish and up only please. When she’s all tuckered out, she’s all about a good cuddle, so don’t skip on the Netflix at the end of the day, please. We would love to see someone recognize what an awesome catch Cricket is and see her get swooped up today! Please stop by our adoption center today to see if she’s the girl for you! 🐾
