These pups will bring out your sweet tooth! Meet Rolo Candy, a 12-week-old (9/11) Mixed Breed (possible Chihuahua / Dachshund mix), weighing 10 pounds (as of 8/18/26). The CANDY litter are a mix of adorable pups who were dumped at a ferry landing in Tennessee. They're excited to leave the stray life behind and find their way to candy land!

UPDATE: He's doing great! He's almost house trained - doing pee and poop outdoors about 75% of the time. He sleeps on the bed with us, & doesn't even need to be in a crate, but will go in one during the day just to get a little break from our dog. He is a total cuddler, very smart and has already learned sit. He can sleep through the night without having to go to the bathroom either probably about six hours. He has discovered his reflection and loves admiring himself! Check out the video of his morning zoomies!

********************************************************

Rolo is the kind of boy who'll easily make you laugh with his silly faces and Laffy Taffy jokes. When he's not playing or staring at you with his beautiful brown eyes, he enjoys resting in the sun like that chocolate bar you forgot you left outside. He's a sweetie with a heart of gold.

The Candy pups will make super sweet companions (pun intended)! Some have short and stocky legs while others have longer legs, so it's possible they have a few baby daddies. Maybe Jerry Springer can help them out! We think they'll be a small breed so they should fit in to most households.

Playful and spirited, they enjoy playing with other dogs but haven't met kids or cats yet. If you give them all the love and help they need with potty training, leashing, commands and crates, they promise to give you FREE season passes to Hershey Park! But hurry! It expires next week!

Once they're old enough and ready for adoption, they'll be spayed/neutered.

Life just got sweeter and oh-so-cuter with the Candy pups!

All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

PLEASE READ: If a dog is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works.

Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
