14-year-old me was beyond excited and took to carrying around this picture in a folder, along with a long list of potential puppy names that I would show to everyone who'd look. I think "Sparrow" and "Winnie" were among the other top contenders before I finally decided on Cricket. Turned out to be a good choice, because when I got her she bounced around just as much as her namesake.
Her first few days at home, when she was four months old:
And just a few from our morning walk today:

Quick group shot so the other two don't feel left out (sorry if it's a little dark)
