Waiting for My Adoptive Home!

Candy was homeless when we found her, she had callouses from so many flea bites and a tumor on her breast.. After surgery and much care from her foster, she is ready for her forever home....Candy is a sweetheart, she is friendly and loves everyone.

From her Foster: Her MARS name is Candy, but we call her Babs When she came to us, it was clear that she had a rough start. We suspect that she was caged at a puppy mill for many years and used just for breeding. You would think this would make her weary of humans and break her spirit. It didn’t. Not one bit. If Babs is awake, her tail is wagging. She is a happy, trusting, giving, silly girl. We often say, “Babs is just happy to be here” because she really is. She will gaze lovingly into your eyes and give gentle kisses as if to say, “thank you.” You cannot have a bad day with Babs around. She is extremely animated with a great personality.

She has a lot of sound effects and quirks. She loves to shake her stuffed animals and throw them across the room. If you want a snuggle buddy, you found it. Babs loves to snuggle but does not require your attention constantly. She enjoys her naps in her dog bed or chewing on a bone. Babes LOVES walks. Despite her age, this girl has a ton of life and activity in her. She gets really excited when her leash comes out and can bark and get a little sassy. She also pulls on the leash when she starts a walk, just out of excitement. She is generally fine once the walk starts. We are continuing to train her on the leash, but it is a work in progress and will likely need to be continued. The good news is, she is very smart and trainable. Everything is new to her, she gets excited, but it is truly rewarding to see her experience new things and share that with her. Babs is potty trained and great with kids and other dogs. Sometimes if the other dog is too excited, Babs will get a mohawk and seem annoyed, but then you just know it’s time to move on. We don’t crate Babs because she is very well behaved while we’re gone. She lives with our Old English Bulldog and they get along great and just snooze when we’re not home. Babs has food allergies but that can be taken care of with grain free food and a bath with medicated shampoo every couple weeks.

My dream for Babs is to find a home that she receives the life she has always deserved, but been deprived of. I want her to have an easy, loving rest of her life that is filled with love and adventure. I will be heartbroken to see her go, but so happy that she gets to start a life with her forever home. Whoever gets this gem is very lucky. Did I mention she sleeps with her tongue out? Yup, pretty great.

*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!

Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.

*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.
