Cricket and Mochi, a bonded pair of sweet, gentle, and loving senior pups, have overcome so much and are finally ready for a forever home—together. They were part of a heartbreaking surrender when their owner entered a nursing home. After multiple surgeries, dentals, and lots of TLC, these brave little ladies are now healthy, comfortable, and ready for their forever home—always together.
Meet Mochi: At 7+ years old and 14 lbs, this Wire-Haired Terrier Mix may have a permanently grumpy little face, but underneath that is a calm, affectionate cuddle bug. She's the confident half of this duo and quietly watches over Cricket. Mochi had several masses removed—all benign—and while she may develop more in the future, she is currently happy and feeling great. She also has a heart murmur and although on medication is asymptomatic. Mochi is calm, affectionate, loyal, confident, easygoing, loves frozen Kongs, and is great on leash.
Meet Cricket: At 8+ years old and 13 lbs, this Chihuahua is a gentle, sensitive soul who has overcome so much. She arrived with a large hernia and a damaged eye—both now successfully treated. Today, she's finally living pain-free. She's shy at first, but once she trusts you, she melts into soft affection and belly rubs. Cricket leans on Mochi for confidence, and their bond is truly something special. Cricket is sweet, gentle, loving, gains confidence from Mochi, loves bully sticks, and prefers shredded chicken mixed with kibble.
Ideal Home
These girls are looking for a calm, stable home where they can continue to thrive together. A fenced yard is required, and they are not suited for apartment living as Cricket is still building leash confidence. Ideally, they would not be placed in a home with small children. They would do well with calm, respectful, dog-friendly companions. They are about 90% housebroken, with Mochi seeming to be slower to catch on. They are crate trained.
Ongoing Health
Mochi has had several masses removed, all benign. She may develop more in the future, but is currently healthy. She has a heart murmur and is on medication, but is asymptomatic. Cricket had a large hernia and a damaged eye, both of which have been successfully treated.
Training & Support
Mochi is still working on house-training, while Cricket is building leash confidence.
