FEMALE – MIXED BREED – ADULT – AT SHELTER SINCE MAR 2025

Cricket is a soft-hearted, shy girl who’s learning that the world can be a safe and loving place. Rescued from the streets of Miami-Dade with her companion Captain, she’s spent her time at the shelter caring for her puppies (all now adopted) and slowly building trust with her human friends.

Though timid at first, Cricket blossoms with patience and kindness. She finds comfort in routine, quiet surroundings, and gentle companionship. Having Captain around has helped her feel brave, but she’s also ready to open her heart to a family of her own.

If you’re someone who understands shy dogs and has the time to earn her trust, Cricket will reward you with the sweetest kind of love. And if you’re open to adopting both her and Captain, you’d be giving a bonded pair the dream they’ve been waiting for.

Come meet Cricket—you might just be the calm, caring home she’s been hoping for.

Meet Hazel:
Our Little Miracle Dog

Hazel’s story is one of incredible resilience. After a tragic incident where she was shot in the back with a BB gun and left paralyzed, Hazel has made remarkable progress. Thanks to the dedication of our staff and volunteers, she is now walking—and she no longer needs her stroller! It’s amazing to see how quickly she gets around and how joyfully she plays with the other dogs in the yard.

Hazel’s upper body is strong—just like her spirit. She’s a people-loving pup with a heart full of determination. While she once relied on stroller rides to explore the world, she now walks proudly on her own.

Hazel would thrive as a second dog in a household, as she absolutely loves the company of other dogs. She’s ready for adoption, and meet-and-greets can be scheduled to find her perfect match. The shelter team will support her new family every step of the way to ensure a smooth transition.

If you have the love and commitment to continue Hazel’s journey, come meet this extraordinary girl at Dogs And Cats Forever.
