My name is CANELA!

Meet Canela! This sweet herding breed mix is looking for a breed-savvy adopter to provide above average mental and physical stimulation to keep her a happy camer. Canela’s favorite things are going for walks and playing frisbee. Canela knows “sit”, “shake” and “lie down”. An adopter that will continue bonding with her and learning through positive reinforcement based training will be best to help Canela settle into her new home and continue learning life skills. Canela has met dogs and enjoys playing but can be a bit conflicted behind barriers or on leash. Reactivity is common in dogs and can be managed through environmental set ups as well working with a positive reinforcement behavior consultant. Canela may enjoy a home with a canine companion but any resident dogs should meet at the Shelter prior to adoption. Due to some observed prey drive towards cats and squirrels, a home free of small animals is recommended to set Canela up for success. Due to some breed specific behaviors, Canela is recommended to go to a home with teens or adults only.
