Easygoing, affectionate, couch-rolling, and just a little bit sneaky with the kisses... this is Cricket. 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, and that is exactly how he wins you over. Cricket is estimated to be around 5 years old and weighs 41 lbs. His best guess breed is a little pittie, maybe a dash of whippet, and a whole lot of "perfectly made just as he is." He's currently fostered in a loving home with a full spectrum of dog personalities and fits in beautifully with all of them, as he "just gets it!" He reads the room, matches energy effortlessly, and knows when it's time to play and when it's time to relax, making living with him feel easy and natural. At home, he is all about comfort and connection. He's fully house and crate trained, settles in without fuss, and has a deep appreciation for the finer things in life... like a good couch and a proper roll-around before drifting off into a nap, his signature move, the "Cricket Classic." He's social and affectionate with people, will sneak in a kiss when you least expect it, and then carry on like nothing happened. He's gentle with kids and has a natural demeanor that makes people feel comfortable around him. Out and about, he's a great little sidekick. 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 to be happy, but he's always up for joining you when adventure calls. Cricket is consistently grateful, sweet company with a playful little streak and a heart full of quiet affection. If you're looking for a dog who is perfectly timed as an easy best friend from day one, Cricket is ready and waiting to get started.
