👉👉Rescue Story:
Candy’s journey has been filled with challenges. Her original owner was a woman fighting uterine cancer, which later spread to her lungs. Due to her illness, she was no longer able to care for Candy.
We ended up in a shelter, but after two months with no adoption offers, she was at risk of being euthanized.
She was rescued just in time, and now she’s looking for a loving family who will offer her a safe and caring forever home.
Candy is a sweet, loving dog who deserves a second chance. Could you be the one to give her the forever home she’s been waiting for? ❤️
