Cricket

My story

PLEASE NOTE: Transport fee to Canada will be required. Cricket is still awaiting that perfect person. He is apx 12 years young and 10.5 pounds .He was adopted but returned because he bit the neighbor. Cricket takes a while to warm up to new people, more than a day, maybe more than a week, but he does. He never attacks or bites people out of no where , he is fine with having friends over but he does not like being cornered or picked up by strangers, provoked or pet by people he does not know. He also does not like boy dogs but he loves the ladies and has several girlfriends here at the ranch. He does not like people kissing him in the face even if he does love you he is not a face kisser. Cricket is also heartworm positive and on the slow kill method. He was born in his home, he lived with his elderly human father for 12 full years. He has always been wonderful with me and adores me, since day one. So he is just particular with his people. He loves everyone that works and volunteers at the rescue but some took longer to warm up than others. He is a very sweet and loving gentleman once he warms up to you. He is an easy dog once he warms up, you just have to give him time and space and within a few weeks he will following you everywhere and crawling in your lap for cuddles and sleeping next to you in bed. He had a dental. He had a proheart injection, he loves food, he is not a big barker unless a stranger comes over. He has pretty good potty manners but may mark the first couple days. He is actually a gentle quiet soul that just thinks for some reason he has to make himself larger than life when he is scared or uncertain or nervous. You will fall in love with Cricket. It may not be the first night , but he weasels his way into your heart, you will see.
