My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Candy is such a sweet girl! She's a little lazy couch potato looking for her comfy home.


She came in with her friend, Pumpkin, found as strays. They're a bit of a bonded pair, so we're keeping our fingers crossed that they can find the perfect home together. They're as sweet as can be, walk well on leash, are good with other dogs and ADORE people. They eat at the same time, and when Candy decides she needs a little change of scenery for a second, cause she been looking at Pumpkin for too long, she picks up her bowl with the food still in it and moves herself over a few feet. They are little hams and will keep you laughing and bathed in doggy kisses! Both are young adults around 2 to 3 years of age and weigh in around 45 lbs.
