Adopted January 2008

Cricket has made a wonderful adjustment! We are so pleased!

She gets along well with her 15 year old mini-Schnauzer sister Miss Rose. They are both territorial about what they view as "theirs" but we let them settle that "sibling issue" on their own and that has worked out well.

Cricket likes her new vet and her new groomer! Once her health checked out on our end and she was bathed and clipped ... WOW! What a princess pup!

She is VERY friendly to anyone who comes into our home ... both human and canine. And she and Rosie enjoy long walks through our woods and around our neighborhood!

I was told she might not like to be held ... wrong! LOL! From day ONE she has let me cradle her like a baby, rub her tummy, and brush here forever! Attached is a photo of Miss Cricket in her new doggie bed holding her heart snuggly which she loves. All I have to do to get her in that position is say: "Cricket ... Show me your tummy!"

She's such a sweet little girl!

Adopting an older dog was the perfect situation for my husband and me and the experience has been positive in every way! It's something we hope to do again in the future.

Thank you in advance for adding Cricket to the Success Story site.

Sincerely,

Francine McCarthy
