UPDATE:
Candie was adopted! After a long wait at North Shore Animal League, she found her forever home. We're happy for you, Candy!
--
Candie is an adult, Borzoi mix - a Mutt-i-gree, as North Shore Animal League America calls its proud pound puppies. "She is a regal, dainty, gentle giant who loves attention from her two legged friends," according to an email from Allison Andersen, communications coordinator, at NSALA. "Candie loves to give kisses and because she is very socialized, (and) she is comfortable meeting new people."
Candie was unfortunately left behind when her family moved into a new home that had a no-pet policy. She is now looking for her forever home in a household that says "yes" to adopting Candie as one of its own.
"Candie is such a delight to be around," NSALA Shelter Director Christina Travalja told Headlines and Global News. "She loves attention, but will also lay quietly when you're busy or working. She loves to greet new people and was definitely socialized well in the past. I can picture her being the perfect dog to watch a long movie with by your side."
May we suggest, "Must Love Dogs?"

Borzoi, or Russian wolfhounds, are similar to a greyhound, according to Dog Breed Information Center, and also similar to a cat, in that they keep themselves very clean. The Borzoi is a quiet dog, so no worries about bothering your neighbors with constant barking. The Information Center described the Borzoi as "sweet, intelligent," "proud...extremely loyal," "quite affectionate with people it knows well" and "free-thinking."
