| 7/22/10: Cricket is a gentle girl who
is so appreciative of attention and a big space
to play. She is good on leash and enjoyed
the car ride. She did want to navigate,
but settled in nicely after a few minutes.
She liked being inside the house and seems to
have good manners. She was called onto
Loren's lap. She did not initiate it.
Prior to coming here, she lived on a cable
for at least 9 months inside a 10 x 10 pen.
They said she tore up the chain link.
Since being here and having a big yard, she has
made no attempt to get out, tear anything up or
even challenge the gate when I go in or out.
She likes other dogs and will give aggressive
ones space, but cornered, she will stand up for
herself. She does not appear to have food
issues. She will eat until she is full and
then leave what she does not want.
The groomer said she obviously had never had a
bath. At first she was freaking out, but
once she realized no one was going to hurt her
and the water felt good, she fell asleep in the
tub!!! They never had a dog do that
before! She said Cricket was
delightful and gave lots of kisses to the
employees.
She is small for a Pyrenees/ Old English Sheep
Dog mix. Estimating her age to be 3 years
old and weight about 50 pounds. She will
be spayed and vet checked around the first of
Aug. |
