What a sweetheart. Props to you sir for 1. Rescuing the pup and 2. Having the restraint to not shove the dumbass in a cage and let him rot, I’m sure it took all the restraint you could muster.
YOU SIR ARE THE BOMB!!!!!!!! ANY MAN THAT HAD LOVE FOR AN ANIMAL IS A BEAUTIFUL MAN I LOVE YOU FANTASTIC I GET YOU SHE IS BEAUTIFUL SOOOOOOOOOO GORGEOUS A STORY🐾💗😘👌
@@cricketandherveteran5524Thank you for your service! You are truly an awesome person! 👌 Be well and stay happy together! Your dog is lucky to be with you, Sir! 🎉
Watching her run free is the most beautiful thing, as is your relationship. Thank you for rescuing her, and THANK YOU especially for your service to our country.
This is my favorite story on GeoBeats. First of all, thank you for your service. I am so sorry that you have suffered for our country and we are proud of you. Secondly, your heart is so pure and open that you can love, unconditionally, this dog that you did not know would be your soul mate. Bless you.
Yes, the English Staffy is probably the worst protection dog in the world, unless it has to protect you from other dogs.. On the other hand, they are one of the easiest dogs to train, they are loving and loyal,,, or at least they are my experience with the breed
I believe that, every so often, a person finds that perfect animal that changes both their lives. Cricket is that, no doubt. As you said, she's your soulmate. You had a connection from the moment you saw her, and she felt the same about you. The love is absolute. I had a soulmate, too, and she was my unofficial therapy dog. I had spinal surgery in 2000, and my doctor wanted me to get out and walk. So, for motivation, I went to the pound and there she was, in a pen with three other dogs, all jumping and barking, except her. She was sitting at the front of the pen just looking at me and, when I put my hand up to the fencing, she just gave me this soft kiss, still no barking, but she was wagging her tail so hard that her butt was an inch off the ground. I think she chose me as much as I chose her. She's been gone awhile now, but she'll always have a little piece of my heart. I know you feel the same about Cricket. I know you will have many years together, filled with love and adventure. God Bless!
It was amazing to see her run and run ...that made me happy because it was heartbreaking to know she was locked in a cage for so long. It is a miracle that you found each other. Love begets love and you both showed that. May you keep healing from PTSD and thank you for your service.
@@cricketandherveteran5524 And this is what makes you a person that doesn't suck and I could probably tolerate.. People annoy the heck out of me... i love animals though and people that also love them.. and help them.. almost as much as they help us
Dogs are the most forgiving creatures on earth and people just don't deserve them. You are so blessed for rescuing her and making her a part of you, she obviously loves you very much.❤❤
What a beautiful girl. Rescues know. Their grateful and show it every minute of every day. God has blessed you both with each other. I too am a disabled Veteran with PTSD, and also have a white rescue dog. He's an American Fox Hound. I didn't have to train him, he just instinctively knew what to do. Helps me center when I have panic attacks. So much more. The unconditional love of a dog can't be matched. Thank you for caring, and saving that sweet girl.
What a beautiful story, and thank you for your service! I just lost my 82 year old brother, Navy 3x Viet Nam veteran with a Purple Heart. He was a brave and caring person, and I see that in you too.
I have literal tears streaming down my face. God bless this man and his baby. I'm so glad they found each other and will live the rest of their lives happy and safe with each other!! 🥺😭🥰💖
It makes my HEART sooo happy to see these two together! I have a 20 pound white cat named ZIPPER, that helped me stay sober, during a rough time in my life. He was a semi-wild kitten when I found him, now 5 years later he is all purr's and cuddles. I love him so much! -- Susan.
Mosquitoes cause over 750,000 deaths per year via the diseases they carry! Are they a gift from God, too? My point is, stop attributing only good stuff to your magic, invisible friend and ignoring the bad/harm he causes. Maybe even grow up and leave this bronze age nonsense behind🤷♂️
My friend, thank you for your service to our country. I’m sorry for what has made you suffer. God sent you this dog but you two were meant to be together. You needed each other and I’m so happy you’ve found each other. God bless you both.
Thank you for your Service. I'm so sorry you've been hurt. Thank you for saving Cricket. You are beautiful together. All the best for both of you. God bless xox
So sweet, I'm so glad you found her! Also, most dogs love having 'jobs', I love seeing her doing these little tasks so happily. May you have many beautiful years together 💖
She's beautiful! We picked up our dog from a shelter and was told he was an adult Pit Bull. We took him to a vet and was told he was a puppy, but still a Pit Bull. Rockefeller's disposition was so sweet, I couldn't believe it and had his DNA tested. Turns out he was 100% American Staffordshire Terrior, the sweetest boy. He stayed by my side during the entire course of my cancer treatment...surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. He was there for me and I don't think my recovery and remission would have gone as well as it did without him. He was diagnosed with Cushing's disease and we went through a surgery for him to give him a chance at a better quality of life. It gave him a few more months, but when discussing it with his doctor she told me it was time and the best thing for him. You have a precious gift, enjoy the love and joy she brings you every single minute of every single day. You are extremely fortunate to have found each other. ❤
@cricketandherveteran5524 Thank you for your service. 🫡 I'm delighted to hear back from you, and I'm now subscribed to your channel. I look forward to updates on your adventures with Cricket. ♥️🐕
What a beautiful story. Thank God he was able to rescue her from the jerk that kept her in a cage for over a year. Thank God for her new dad, who is providing her the best years of her life. And it’s so obvious how much she loves him, and vice-versa. ❤️❤️❤️
She's your soul dog. You're lucky to have found each other. Bless you both for a long happy, healthy and safe live spend together!
What a sweetheart. Props to you sir for 1. Rescuing the pup and 2. Having the restraint to not shove the dumbass in a cage and let him rot, I’m sure it took all the restraint you could muster.
I'm sure he did ! 😢
She's beautiful! What a wonderful day for both of you.
That's a good man, and a good dog, and they truly belong together.
He might have saved her, but she saved him just as much.💕
So true…

❤🙏❤🙏❤
Amen to that!
Anyone who gets a dog, please please please, get a rescue. They need us, and we need them 💘
O my goodness, what a precious dog. Thank you for saving her and giving her the love and freedom and happiness she deserves. Bless you and her.
Dogs truly are a gift from God.
Yes, they are ! ❤
That’s what they are spelled backwards! Dog = God
I wish dogs lived as long as sea turtles 60+ years . The saddest thing is their lives are so short
Mosquitoes cause over 750,000 deaths per year via the diseases they carry! Are they a gift from God, too?
My point is, stop attributing only good stuff to your magic, invisible friend and ignoring the bad/harm he causes. Maybe even grow up and leave this bronze age nonsense behind🤷♂️
Actually, god is a gift from dogs. Even if it's imaginary.
I'm so sorry, girl. We are not all like that. I'm grateful you found someone worthy❤️❤️
Josh, good on you for rescuing Cricket from a horrible situation. The love and happiness you both now share really comes through in your story.
You are both wonderful! I’m a 76 year old guy with tears of joy for you and your forever friend!!
