Candace

Location: Brooklyn Park, MN Candace wants what every dog wants: a safe and comfortable home where she can be loved and well-fed. Candace has come a long way since coming to Rescue Network. When she arrived, she had 6 puppies, a severe skin infection, 2 infected teeth, a growth on her head, and was severely underweight. Her skin has now cleared up, she has put on 25+ pounds, had 2 teeth removed, and 2 masses removed. Throughout her medical trials, she has continued to be a happy, friendly dog, who is done raising her puppies and looking to be a young excited lady living life to the fullest. She is a brilliant girl who is eager to learn more of her basic manners and will work hard when rewarded with a tasty treat. She can sit, does well on a leash, knows gentle, and is good with getting baths. Candace is a happy-go-lucky girl who loves playing with her toys independently and with her foster family. She is house-trained and kennel-trained. She does prefer her dog bed to staying in the kennel. When she gets bored she can chew up items, which happened when she was in isolation for her skin infection. Candace's foster home currently has cats; she does well with some and is curious about others. Candace could live with cats that is not bothered by dogs. She has met other dogs; however, tends to resource guard with food and treats so would do best as an only dog. Candace's forever home would have a fenced yard so she could run and chase her balls. She would love an active family that would take her on walks and other outings. She will need a family that continues to work on her training and resource guarding. Candace is also looking for a family that will look beyond her breed and know she has nothing but love and cuddles to give. --------------- The best way to show interest in an animal is to submit an adoption application by visiting our website (www.rescuenetworkmn.org). Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, all age-appropriate vaccinations (distemper, rabies, and bordetella), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, heartworm test (dogs), FIV/FeLV test (cats), dewormed, and microchip implant (including registration). Rescue Network is strictly foster based which means all adoptable animals are in a home and there cannot be a meet until an application is submitted and approved. We have no way of knowing the breeds in the animals. All breeds listed are best guess.
