Candee and two of her friends were surrendered to our local animal control facility and she was pretty scared and confused by the whole situation.  When we brought her into foster care, it took her less than a day to turn into a sweet, cuddly, kissy little girl.

Candee is so sweet and loving, but she will definitely let the other pups know they need to ‘back off’ if they get too close to her crate when she is in it.  Outside the crate there don’t seem to be any issues.  She is certainly not aggressive at all … definitely more of a lovebug.

If you think Candee might be the perfect pup for you, please go to our website, click on Forms/Application and complete your adoption application online.  Here’s the link  http://www.allamericanmuttrescue.org/forms/

We are an all-volunteer group, so please be patient and understand that it can take up to 14 days to process the applications including reference checks, follow-up questions and home visits.  You can expedite the process by providing accurate email addresses for all your references.  Time to make phone calls is limited and we often have multiple applications in process.  We make every effort to move through them as quickly as possible.

When your application is approved, we will schedule a meet-and-greet to see if Candee picks you too.

If it seems that the adoption will be a good match for all, there is an adoption fee, and an adoption contract to be signed.
