Candy 's Story

We received this timid girl from a hoarding case where she received absolutely no human interaction. She is extremely shy and will take weeks-months to come around and trust you. She is not your typical companion. She needs a very patient home that will continue to work with her emotional needs. We believe she is a miniature poodle weighing around 25-30 pounds full grown. She has showed so much potential in her experienced foster home and continues to be a wonderful companion. Here is what her foster has to say ….<br/><br/>Hi!, <br/>My name is Sweetie Pie and Candy Girl. My foster is letting me pick my own name. I give quick looks of acknowledgement when either of those are used. <br/><br/>I don’t trust people; I have really never been exposed to them. <br/><br/>My ideal home would have at least a 6 foot fence ( I got serious hops for my size).  I would love to have another easy going K9!  Size doesn’t matter my foster Nana has a miniature pinscher(10 yrs old), Doberman pinscher (8), frenchie (2) and a demon cat ( more about her later). My favorite is the Doberman she sleeps in the crate with me when I am not in my bed on the bed. <br/><br/>I prefer to eat in my crate. If kept too long ( like on church days) I might potty in my crate if fed before Nana goes to sit with the Jesus crew. Normally I will potty on the potty pads.  I will go outside to potty, but because I have a hard time trusting I will hide!  I am exceptionally great at hide and seek. I will look at you searching for me and not say a word!  I don’t mind being in a crate but a gated room not so much. I will jump it or hurt myself trying to escape. <br/><br/>I am as sweet as pie! I was never groomed but I let Nana shave all the mats off me and clip my toe nails.  When it is bath time you and I will be getting bathed at the same time….lol. Yep I will cling to you. <br/><br/>Now I have not a care in the world about cats, but demon cat does not care for me! She stole my bed for the bed bed! <br/><br/>If you have the time and patience I am your candy girl! If you are retired or work from home I will be your best friend. Oh I love PJ’s! They are like a permanent hugs!<br/><br/>If you believe you are the right fit for this sweet girl, please submit an application <br/><br/>https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/66b189c45d6f9afa2c07afb8/691e3b35f53831ce0808037c
