About Candy

Meet Candy, a spirited young terrier mix in Elkton, MD. At just six months old and weighing 18 lbs, she lights up every room with her playful nature and goofy antics. Candy loves everyone she meets and is especially good with older children—though little ones should be ready for some typical puppy energy. She’ll warm up to dogs after a few days, becoming a lively companion. This little bundle of joy is still mastering house training but is crate trained and likes to chill in her space. While she enjoys car rides as long as she’s buckled in, she thrives with ample outdoor time—either in a fenced yard or with daily walks. She's got loads of energy and adores playing with toys, chasing after friends, and curling up for cozy snuggles. Be prepared, Candy is a curious gatherer. Left to her own devices, she’s likely to collect socks and remotes, but she’s also a sweet couch companion ready for some downtime. She's hoping to find someone who will embrace her playful spirit and keep her entertained. If you’re looking for a lively addition to your home, Candy is excited to meet you!
