My story

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

Christmas is over and it's time to start the new year off with a sweet pup like Candy Cane! She is a beautiful brindle dachshund mix who was born into our rescue on 9/16/25. Her mom is mostly dachshund who is Carrie and is also available for adoption.

Candy Cane (also known as CC) is a sweet loving pup who loves playing with her sister Little Elf, running and bouncing through the house and from one toy to another. She has known nothing but love and safety and is looking for the best home ever!

Her adoption fee is $215 and includes her puppy vaccines, rabies vaccine, microchip, spay and a box of heartgard to get her started. If you think Candy Cane might be a great fit for your home, please submit your application.

***Puppies are not available for out of state adoptions. Adopters must live close enough to return to our vet for remaining vetting included in adoption fee***

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

An application is required to meet foster dogs outside of adoption events.

2.

Interview

Typically there is a phone interview and a vet reference check.

3.

Meet the Pet

We have an in person meet and greet with the pet to ensure it is a good fit for both the dog and the family

4.

Approve Application

Approve the application, pay the fee and take the dog home can occur at the meet and greet if foster and family feel it is a match

Additional adoption info

We look to match the dogs personality, energy, and size to the potential adoptive family lifestyle and dynamics. A family looking for a calm snuggle buddy is not a good match for a working dog that needs to be walked several miles a day to be content and successful in the home.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

APAC has bi-monthly in person adoption events at the Temple, Texas Petsmart, typically on the first and third Saturday of the month. There is no need to wait for an adoption event, with an approved application we will schedule private meet and greets at a time convenient for the foster home and the potential adopter.

More about this rescue

Adoption fees include vaccines, spay/neuter, microchip and heartgard to get started in the new family. We rescue to make a difference in our community, in the lives of homeless pets, and in the lives of families seeking a companion animal.
