Hi! I'm Cricket. I'm a shy girl who needs dog friends for confidence. I have already made so much progress in such a short time in my foster home. I'm around 1-2 (feel closer to 1) and weigh 45 lbs. I am quite petite. I am crate trained and house broken (will likely need reinforcement in a new home but I catch on fast) I am very charming and desperately want to love you but like my foster Mom will tell you-i just need some patience and time and then we will be great friends! Dogs help and I really need at least one dog friend at home please :) I am also fostered with cats and kids and I do well with both. Check me out in this cute video - wanna meet? Please note: All of our dogs reside in private foster homes. Once you submit an application, our volunteer adoption team will screen it; if your application is a potential match for a specific dog, it will be forwarded to the foster parent, who will contact you to answer questions and schedule a meet-and-greet. Please be aware that we do not transport our dogs. If you are applying from out of state, we require that you travel to Los Angeles to meet us and ensure the dog returns home with you via a car or an in-cabin flight. https://www.apurposefulrescue.org/adoptable-dogs
🧠 Temperament
I'm a shy girl who needs dog friends for confidence. Mixed-breed dogs pull traits from several lines, which often means fewer breed-linked health problems and a temperament best judged by meeting the dog.
🎾 Exercise
Depends on the individual. A daily walk plus play is the baseline; ask the foster how the dog behaves after a quiet day.
✂️ Grooming
Varies with coat type. Short coats need little; longer or double coats need regular brushing.
🏙️ In an LA apartment
Mixes are often excellent city dogs. Building breed restrictions are usually enforced on what a dog looks like, so ask the rescue how the dog is typically identified.
