About Cricket
Meet Cricket, a young female mixed breed ready to find her forever home. She's likely a medium-sized Schnauzer mix, though her exact lineage is a mystery. Rescued from the Santa Cruz mountains, Cricket was discovered wandering alone in the middle of the road and brought to the shelter for her safety. Cricket's personality shines through her curiosity and social nature, though she's a bit timid in the bustling shelter environment. To help her adjust, a calm and structured home would be ideal, allowing her a chance to settle in and build trust with her new family before engaging in more lively activities. She's been introduced to other dogs and may do well with a canine companion after a successful meet and greet. There’s no history yet regarding her behavior with cats or children. Currently, Cricket is available for pre-adoption, and once spayed, she'll be ready to start her new life. The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is offering a training voucher with every dog adoption, ensuring new guardians connect with positive reinforcement trainers to help Cricket thrive. Come meet her and see if you can be the one to welcome this loving pup into your home. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
