Cricket is an easygoing, affectionate, couch-rolling, and just a little bit sneaky with the kisses. This pint-sized boy is the kind of dog who doesn't need to be the center of attention and is happy to go with the flow, which is exactly how he wins you over. Cricket is estimated to be around 5 years old and weighs 41 lbs. While his exact breed mix is a guess, we see a little pittie, maybe a dash of whippet, and a whole lot of "perfectly made just as he is." Cricket is currently fostered in a loving home and fits in beautifully with a full spectrum of dog personalities. His foster says he "just gets it," effortlessly matching energy and knowing when to play and when to relax, making him a joy to live with. He's fully house and crate trained, settles in without fuss, and has a deep appreciation for comfort and connection, especially his signature "Cricket Classic" couch roll. He's social and affectionate with people, gentle with kids, and possesses a warm demeanor that makes others feel comfortable. When out and about, Cricket is a great companion. He rides well in the car, has the basics of leash walking down, and approaches the world with a calm, steady presence. He doesn't need constant activity but is always up for an adventure.
