Cricket and Mochi have overcome so much and are finally ready for a forever home—together. These sweet, gentle, and loving girls have a whole chapter book of resilience behind them, having been surrendered to a rural Texas shelter when their owner entered a nursing home. Project Freedom Ride helped bring them to safety, and after multiple surgeries, dentals, and lots of TLC, they are now healthy, comfortable, and ready for their happy ending.
Cricket is a gentle, sensitive soul who arrived with a large hernia and a damaged eye, both now successfully treated. She's shy at first, but once she trusts you, she melts into soft affection and belly rubs. She leans on Mochi for confidence, and their bond is truly something special. Cricket loves bully sticks and prefers shredded chicken mixed with kibble.
Mochi 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 is on medication but is asymptomatic. Mochi loves frozen Kongs and is great on leash.
Ideal Home
These girls are looking for a calm, stable home where they can continue to thrive together. A fenced yard is required as Cricket is still building leash confidence. They would ideally not have small children in the home and prefer calm, respectful, dog-friendly dogs. They are crate trained and are 90% housebroken, though Mochi seems to be a bit slower to catch on.
Ongoing Health
Mochi has a heart murmur and is on medication, though she is currently asymptomatic. She also had several masses removed that were benign, and while more may develop in the future, she is currently doing well. Cricket had a large hernia and a damaged eye, both of which have been successfully treated, and she is now living pain-free.
Training & Support
Cricket is still building leash confidence, which is why a fenced yard is a must. Mochi is a bit slower to housebreak compared to Cricket.
