Presenting ... Cricket!

 
 
It's official! There's a new member to our family. I've added some preliminary photos & information. Please check back often to read about Miss Cricket's progess.
 
Just below is her rescue photo and a  little information to share.

After what was initially a smooth adjustment, Cricket began to manifest aggressive tendencies. "Jaws" ... as we began to call her ... bit me twice and sadly "drew blood" on one occasion. We almost  relinquished ownership back to Save-A-Dog ... BUT we decided to give her one more chance!
 
After a few visits to our local vet to clear up some stomach issues we found she had and several visits with a behaviorist, she is once again a happy member of our household.
 
Cricket will ALWAYS retain the scars left by the less than desirable life she led before she found her way to our home. But with proper discipline, consistency, love, and understanding, she will be a member of our family for what we hope to be a long, long time!

Cricket is an 11 year old Cairn terrier mix. Her owner in West Virginia was no longer able to care for her so she found her way to Massachusetts and into our hearts! She has been living with a foster family and loves them a lot! I hope she will grow to love us just as much!

"I'll miss you, Sweet Mommy!" ... Cricket saying good-bye to her foster mother.

Cricket's new doggie bed  ... we call it a tuffet ... and her new heart snuggly.

Cricket's first evening with US ... her new family! After eating a good dinner, she is taking a rest ... but only because her new doggie bed is inches away from my feet!

One last snuggle ... well ... almost a snuggle ... with my foster brother. I'll miss him, too.

My sister Rosie has a bed and a heart snuggly a lot like mine.
