Cranberry Retriever & Pit Bull Terrier Mix Palatine, IL

Have you ever seen a "loaf" of jellied cranberries from the can? It's wiggly, jiggly, and the taste is super-sweet with just a hint of tart. This also perfectly describes our one and only Cranberry. This approximately 4-month-old Retriever/Pit Bull Terrier mix has a soft velvety coat and she's best described as soft & squishy.

Even though Cranberry is just a young pup, she is very smart and has already learned sit, touch, no, down, inside, kennel, and go potty. How well does she know sit? She knows to sit before coming inside and if she wants something…yup, Cranberry's one smart cookie! Currently she is working on adding come, off, and stay to her repertoire. She is doing well with potty training and is crate trained. Cranberry sleeps through the night in her crate. This young lady is also learning to walk on a leash.

Did we mention that she is a goofy girl? Cranberry loves to bury herself under blankets, her dog beds, and pillows or flip them upside-down. Her foster mom loves to watch her entertain herself! Goofy-but-good girl Cranberry is also a master snuggler and loves to give kisses, be held and cuddled.

Cranberry loves everyone she meets. She gets along great with the resident dogs in her foster home and has shown to take correction from them well. Her favorite games to play are tug-of-war, fetch, and a good game of chase. The only time Cranberry’s foster mom has heard her bark is when she is initiating play.

So, who has room for some Cranberry? All the sweet without the calories! Come see her this Saturday.
