All grown up with lots to smile about

The very first time I saw Candy Apple, she was a tiny pup, part of a large litter born in a hoarding situation in Arkansas.  She and her mom and nine siblings were rescued by a national group and transported to WARL. Candy Apple, and her brother Funnel Cake, spent several hours in my office the day of a big adoption event.  Sachin (see Sparky posts) and his family fawned over both pups and had a hard time deciding on just one.    After a lot of going back and forth  the family of four adopted Funnel Cake who grew into the very large and much-loved Sparky.   Candy  Apple was adopted shortly thereafter, but was returned to WARL before she was fully grown.  Something was very different when she came back -- her timid personality did not resemble the outgoing pup that I remembered.   But, several months later, the confident, happy-go-lucky, tail-wagging  Juma (formerly Candy Apple)  came for a visit.   She adores her forever family and her forever family loves her.   We love photo and email updates.  It's even better to get in-person (in-dog?) visits.
