Story
Looking for a pint-sized bundle of joy to brighten your life? Meet Candy!Is your couch crying out for a little gargoyle to perch on? Do you dream of coming home to 20 pounds of spring-loaded happiness? How about a dog who can do an uncanny impression of Bob Ross cleaning his paintbrush? Candy’s got you covered.Candy is a 4-year-old chihuahua / basenji mix with a heart as sweet as her name. She’s incredibly smart and shows signs of prior training, but she’s looking for a patient and loving human to help her brush up on her manners and build her confidence. With consistent boundaries and guidance, she’ll truly shine.Currently, Candy lives in a foster home with two senior dogs and a cat. While she’s tolerant of her furry roommates, she’d thrive as the center of attention in a home where she doesn’t have to compete for love. That said, with thoughtful introductions and the right mix of personalities, she can adapt to a multi-pet household.Candy’s energy level is perfectly in tune with her people. Whether it’s a brisk power walk, a hiking adventure, or simply lounging on the couch, Candy is happiest when she’s near you. Be prepared for her excitement during transitions—like waking up or coming home—but once the initial zoomies are out, she’s ready to match your pace.Candy would do best in a home without small children and with someone who’s retired, works from home, or has a flexible schedule. She doesn’t enjoy being left alone for long stretches.If you’re ready to welcome a cinnamon-doughnut dog with a huge personality into your life, Candy is ready to meet you! Let’s make life sweeter together—reach out to meet Candy today!Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-served basis. We strive to find the perfect home for each animal.
