The pup had been hanging around a construction site in the jungle, and the managers of the site were about to get rid of her \u2014 by any means necessary.<\/p>\n<p data-element-index=\"1\">When the Happy Doggo rescue team arrived, they found the puppy cowering under a bush. As they tried to gently coax her out, she hid from them.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/1760581214_920_scale;webp=auto;jpeg_quality=60.jpg\"  width=\"792\" height=\"421\" style=\"display:block;height:auto;aspect-ratio:792 \/ 421\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>The Dodo<\/p>\n<p data-element-index=\"0\">\u201cShe ran away from us to get under this metal sheet,\u201d Niall Harbison, founder of Happy Doggo, said in a video for The Dodo.<\/p>\n<p data-element-index=\"1\">As the rescuers got a better look at the pup, they realized she was missing one of her back legs. It was difficult to tell whether she\u2019d been born with three legs or if she\u2019d gotten injured at some point. Either way, this discovery made everyone even more determined to save the dog.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/1760581215_423_scale;webp=auto;jpeg_quality=60.jpg\"  width=\"792\" height=\"416\" style=\"display:block;height:auto;aspect-ratio:792 \/ 416\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>The Dodo<\/p>\n<p data-element-index=\"0\">Eventually, Harbison and the rest of the Happy Doggo team were able to pick up the terrified pup. As they transported her back to the rescue, she started to relax a tiny bit. They could tell she seemed to like the gentle human touch.<\/p>\n<p data-element-index=\"1\">\u201cShe\u2019s a very, very nervous dog,\u201d Harbison said. \u201cBut she likes being held.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/1760581215_263_scale;webp=auto;jpeg_quality=60.jpg\"  width=\"792\" height=\"351\" style=\"display:block;height:auto;aspect-ratio:792 \/ 351\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>The Dodo<\/p>\n<p data-element-index=\"0\">Harbison decided to name the dog Candy after her sweet personality. After Candy got the medical care she needed, the Happy Doggo staff and volunteers turned their attention to helping Candy come out of her shell.<\/p>\n<p data-element-index=\"1\">It didn\u2019t take long at all for Candy to start feeling a lot more comfortable. Within just weeks, she\u2019d transformed into a cuddly, lively pup who\u2019d all but forgotten about living by herself in the jungle.<\/p>\n<p data-element-index=\"2\">\u201cShe soon flourished into the most loving and playful dog,\u201d Harbison wrote on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DHL6xLvsb8n\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p data-element-index=\"0\">Six months later, a family in Spain decided to adopt Candy. Her new owners love taking her to the park and the beach, where Candy sprints around at breakneck speed. Her zoomies are so powerful that she often outpaces her new brother, Fletcher.<\/p>\n<p data-element-index=\"1\">\u201cShe\u2019s a speed demon,\u201d Harbison said. \u201cTurbo rocket!\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-element-index=\"0\">At the end of the day, when Candy is finally tired out from all the running around, she gets to return to a warm bed in a loving home. After everything Candy went through, it\u2019s the least she deserves.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thedodo.com\/daily-dodo\/scientists-find-rare-barbie-pink-animal-living-in-deep-underwater-canyon\" data-vars-href=\"https:\/\/www.thedodo.com\/daily-dodo\/scientists-find-rare-barbie-pink-animal-living-in-deep-underwater-canyon\" data-vars-ga-action=\"related link\" data-vars-ga-label=\"daily-dodo\/scientists-find-rare-barbie-pink-animal-living-in-deep-underwater-canyon\" data-vars- target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/1760581216_698_flatten;crop;webp=auto;jpeg_quality=60.jpg\" alt=\"Scientists Find Rare 'Barbie-Pink' Animal Living In Deep Underwater Canyon\" width=\"116\" height=\"156\" style=\"display:block;height:auto;aspect-ratio:116 \/ 156\" loading=\"eager\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thedodo.com\/daily-dodo\/scientists-find-rare-barbie-pink-animal-living-in-deep-underwater-canyon\" data-vars-href=\"https:\/\/www.thedodo.com\/daily-dodo\/scientists-find-rare-barbie-pink-animal-living-in-deep-underwater-canyon\" data-vars-ga-action=\"related link\" data-vars-ga-label=\"daily-dodo\/scientists-find-rare-barbie-pink-animal-living-in-deep-underwater-canyon\" data-vars- target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Scientists Find Rare &#8216;Barbie-Pink&#8217; Animal Living In Deep Underwater CanyonWhy do you think they\u2019re pink?<\/a><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Earlier this year, dog rescue Happy Doggo got a call about a puppy in Thailand who desperately needed&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":306899,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[42675,19258,4654,7926,4747,159,10235,19256,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-306898","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-science","8":"tag-alana-francis-crow","9":"tag-daily-dodo","10":"tag-dogs","11":"tag-pets","12":"tag-rescue","13":"tag-science","14":"tag-standard","15":"tag-the-dodo","16":"tag-united-states","17":"tag-unitedstates","18":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115381458350089878","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/306898","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=306898"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/306898\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/306899"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=306898"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=306898"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=306898"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
