An E.C.A.D.R. Dog
Candy (aka Candy Cane) is a 6 yr.
old Pekingese rescued from a puppymill when she was used up and no
longer able to provide puppies for the miller. Candy is a very sweet
and loving girl if you are a female - and once you earn her trust.
I don’t know how long it would take for her to trust a man,
if ever. She is alright with my husband as long as he ignores her
and I am around. I can also put her on his lap and she will stay
if I am there with her. She will not get out of her crate sometimes
to go outdoors for my husband if I'm not around - but this is improving.
She also has been a bit better over the past week about not barking
at my husband. She is not aggressive with other dogs and likes to
be around people and other pets.
She just loves to watch everything
and has learned to play outdoors with the other dogs. A favorite
thing is to run around and explore the backyard. She is very food
motivated, so can be trained and coaxed to come using food. She
has short legs, but is able to move around good and get up and down
stairs.
She does not like to be up on the furniture, preferring to stay
on the floor. Candy has been around other animals all her life in
a
kennel - her favorite friend is another foster from the same mill,
a Pug. They sleep together at night and stay together in the same
crate during the day all curled up together. I am sure she will
befriend another dog as long as the other dog is not aggressive.
Candy will
be a wonderful companion for a female who is patient and calm.
Candy is being fostered in Manlius, NY and her asking adoption
fee is $225.

NOTE: Due to the volatile price of
gas, getting multiple volunteers to help with long distance transporting
is no longer feasible. We have listed the town and state where each
dog is being fostered. Please consider how far you are willing to
travel when filling out the application. The foster home will usually
volunteer to help with transport for a reasonable distance.
