Candy would do well in a happy home with adults who are fairly active and not anxious. She does well with calm children who like to cuddle with her, gently play and love on her.
She needs a patient, gentle environment to feel safe. She would do well with another dog at home and a secure fenced yard.

She microchipped and UTD on shots.
Candy has already been spayed.

Foster says:
“She has NO resource guarding, doesn't bark, is gentle with everyone (even very little people), engages when you want but is completely content just hanging out with you, great in car and in public, responds perfectly and respectfully when other pups give correction (like my old gal who has a very short interaction tolerance), zero accidents, figured out the doggy door on her own..... Seriously, where did this angel come from? :-) ”
