Candy's Story

Candy<br/>Nine years old, 9lbs<br/>Rescued in the southwest with after her owner passed away<br/>Vaccinated and altered <br/><br/>Meet Candy (aka Girly Pop)! This loving, sweet, playful, girl is moderate energy and thoroughly people-oriented — she's wonderfully adaptable, handling new situations with ease and greeting new people and dogs alike with genuine enthusiasm. She's excited and sweet right from the first hello with new people, a bit cautious at first with other dogs before her curiosity takes over, and though her feline compatibility is unknown, she settles in nicely alongside resident dogs when kenneled together. She's excited when guests come over, and while she may whine a little at first when left alone, she settles in quickly.<br/><br/>Candy is potty trained and flexible with pads or outdoor breaks, and while she's not fully crate trained (she'd rather not be crated when people are home), she'll happily use it as a retreat when things feel like a lot. She walks on leash at her own relaxed, leisurely pace, and though she doesn't know formal commands, she knows her name well. Her days are simple and content — indoor play with stuffed toys or a few short walks — and she has a especially sweet ritual of bringing her stuffed animals to the couch to play with each one before settling down for the night. At 9 years old, she's settled comfortably into her personality with nothing major left to work on. Candy would do best as an only dog or with a companion in a moderate, apartment-friendly household, ideally with a single person or couple who'll enjoy her constant company — she loves giving kisses, follows her people from room to room, and curls up right by your leg. She's ready to be someone's devoted, affectionate best friend.<br/><br/><br/>INTERESTED IN ADOPTING?<br/>To adopt apply on our website www.truenorthrescue.org/adopt and email adopt@truenorthrescue.org to follow up on your application.<br/><br/>PLEASE DO NOT EMAIL TO ASK IF HE/SHE IS AVAILABLE. IF THIS LISTING IS UP, THE DOG IS NOT ADOPTED YET.<br/><br/>Also, we have a very high volume of applications and we are all volunteers. We cannot respond to every application personally. Please make sure your application gives us a good picture of your family and the life you plan on providing a dog from our rescue. We choose a home based on the BEST FIT for EACH dog and approve on a dog by dog basis. Thank you!

True North Pet Rescue Mission's Adoption Policy
First Step: Submit Your Application True North does not issue blanket approvals, we consider the needs of each specific dog when reviewing applications. If you don't have a specific dog in mind when applying, please note this on your application so that we can keep this in mind when reviewing. We require home photos for all applicants, but can accept a video replacement. Please enter as much detail as possible on your application, this helps us better understand what you are looking for and how this relates to the needs of the dog you have applied for. For puppies under 12 weeks, we require a care plan. This includes a plan for when the dog will be left alone, as puppies younger than 12 weeks should not be left alone longer than 2-3 hours at a time. Please Note: Due to the high volume of applications we receive, it is not always possible to reply to everyone. If your application is approved, you can expect the following. Second Step: Application Review & Approval 1. If your application is approved, an email will be sent connecting you with the dog's current foster. At this time, you may schedule a mutually convenient time to meet. 2. After meeting, you have 24 hours to confirm if you would like to move forward with finalizing the adoption. After this, if we have not heard from you, we will begin scheduling other meets. 3. If you choose to finalize, we will issue an adoption contract via email. Once the signed agreement has been electronically returned along with the adoption fee (which will be disclosed prior to adopting), you will be all set to coordinate for pick-up with the foster! Adoption Fees: Our adoption fees are comparable to those found amongst other well-known rescues in the city. We only accept electronic payments for adoption fees.
