Critter Twitter:
Hi, I’m Cricket—a sweet, quiet, petite girl with a gentle soul. I might be a little shy at first, but give me some time and I’ll show you my curious, clever side. I’m not the clingy type; I like having my own space and coming to you when I’m ready for some affection. I do love people, especially men—they seem to have a special place in my heart. I’m starting to figure out that toys are fun to play with and that humans give the best scritches! I’m hoping for a calm, patient home where I can feel safe. If you let me move at my own pace, I promise you’ll see how special I am. I’m super smart and would love to learn new things with you.
About my Behaviour:
I'm looking for a quiet, patient adopter who will takes things slow and help build my confidence. Living in a house is new to me but I'm starting to get the hang of things. I am house trained. I don't love my crate yet but I don't get into trouble around the house. I do get anxious when my people leave so I would do best in a home where I'm not left alone for long hours. I currently live with another calm dog who helps with my confidence but I'm not a big fan of dogs who come on too strong. To ensure we get off on the right paw, my adopters will be required to sign up for force-free training. You can find a list of great trainers at www.albertaforcefreealliance.com.
How’s my Health?
I am spayed, up to date on my vaccinations, dewormed and microchipped. I did have a couple of damaged teeth that were removed but I have no problems eating.
