If you're looking for a cool, calm, and collected dog… Cricket is definitely not your girl. But if you're searching for the labbiest Lab you've ever met — bursting with joy, enthusiasm, and playfulness for days — then Cricket is absolutely your girl! At just 9 months old, this Yellow Lab mix is a happy, wiggly bundle of sunshine. Cricket greets everyone like they’re her long-lost best friend — expect BIG tail wags, full-body wiggles, and many, many kisses. She does get very excited when she first meets you (she just has so much love to give!), but don’t let that overwhelm you — she settles down once she’s had a chance to say hello and get her wiggles out. Cricket would make a wonderfully loyal companion for a person or family ready to embrace her zest for life. She loves a good play session, whether that’s zooming around with her canine friends or happily chewing on her favorite toys. She does well with other dogs, cats, and kids, making her a great fit for many different kinds of homes. The good news? She’s mostly potty-trained and crate-trained, with only a few accidents here and there. The “work in progress”? Her basic manners. Cricket is still learning that just because you can jump on something doesn’t mean you should. The great part is that she’s smart and learns quickly — she just needs consistent guidance and someone committed to helping her grow into the amazing adult dog she’s destined to be. Cricket would thrive in a home that’s ready for a happy, energetic girl and will celebrate her joyful spirit instead of calling her “too much.” Because she’s not too much — she’s just full of life. If you’re ready for laughter, loyalty, and a whole lot of love, Cricket is waiting to meet you.
