About Cricket

Meet Cricket! This 8-month-old Terrier mix is ready to hop right into your heart. Weighing in at about 20 lbs and spayed, Cricket is a fun-loving, energetic sidekick. Having recently moved from Mississippi after being found as a stray, she’s now on the lookout for her forever family. Bursting with puppy enthusiasm, she’s always eager for her next adventure. Her foster family jokes about needing to re-engage their child safety locks because Cricket is endlessly curious about everything around her. She adores exploring, playing with toys, and being involved in any activity her humans are doing. Cricket has made great strides in her training. She’s both crate trained and housebroken with the help of a doggy door, boasting an impressive record since her arrival. Still learning her manners like any young puppy, she’s working on not using her mouth too much during play. With the right consistency and positive reinforcement, she’s improving every day. This spirited girl gets along well with other dogs and would thrive with a canine playmate who matches her energy level. While she can be a handful for more laid-back dogs, Cricket’s playful nature is part of her charm. If you’re looking for a smart, silly, active puppy to keep you laughing and fill your home with love, Cricket could be the perfect addition to your family! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
