Candy

My name is Keoni, and I am reaching out to rehome my childhood dog, Candy.

Due to a family emergency involving my grandmother’s health, I am relocating permanently back home to Virginia to assist with her care. Over the past few months, I have exhausted every option to place Candy with family, friends, and through private networks, but have been unable to find her a home before my move.

Candy is a 9-year-old Shar-Pei/Lab mix in fantastic health. She is fully house-trained, spayed, up-to-date on all vaccinations, and has zero behavioral issues. Gentle, affectionate, and calm, she possesses a sweet, easygoing temperament and still has plenty of vibrant, active years ahead of her.

While this is a deeply difficult transition, my priority is ensuring Candy lands in a safe, loving environment.
