DOG'S DESCRIPTION
This cute gal is looking for a new home...she's super sweet and good with people once she trusts them and other dogs. She is timid in new situations and with new people. Needs a patient adopter willing to work with her.
Cricket isn't a super outgoing girl, but she makes up for it in cuddles and kisses once she gets to know you! She definitely will take some time adjusting to a new environment as she is very, very shy, so she'd love a home with another dog to show her the ropes! Cricket loves the show Scandal, cuddling on the couch and sitting under the table waiting for her tiny human to drop some food!
Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.
Adoption fees cover basic vetting, spay/neuter surgery (for dogs over 6 months old), rabies, distemper/parvo vaccinations, treatment for worms, heartworm testing, monthly heartworm prevention and monthly flea/tick prevention (while the animal is in our care), and transport costs from high-kill shelter. Please note that on average, K-9 Lifesavers spend significantly more on each dog than their adoption fee. Adoption fee for HW positive dog also covers heartworm treatment at our partner vets.
