Kandi was rescued by Canine Castaways from Hillsborough County Animal Services after she had been hit by a car. She also tested positive for heart worms. She was immediately taken to our primary vet, Animal Ark of Arcadia, for x-rays. Her injury required surgery by Dr. Rose at Veterinary Surgery Center of Sarasota. Due to her injury, surgery & recovery required, Kandi is on limited activity in her foster home. She has a comfy bed in the dining room and in general hangs out in that area. She has developed an infatuation with the cats in her foster home and is even friends with one of them. She is happy to greet everybody when she meets them. Kandi is a rescue with Canine Castaways.
