My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Looking for a best friend who will be by your side through it all? Canela might be the perfect match! She’s obedient, loving, and playful who wants nothing more than to be your constant companion. Whether you’re heading out for a walk, playing ball in the yard, or relaxing at home, she’ll be right there with you.

She’s both house-trained and crate-trained, and she thrives on routine and activity. With her high energy, she’ll do best in a home where she gets at least two walks a day or some good field time chasing after her favorite ball.

This sweet girl is incredibly friendly with people and loves playing with older kids (8+ recommended). She’s affectionate, loyal, and happiest when she’s close to her humans.

When it comes to other dogs, she prefers to be the star of the show. While she can coexist with certain calm, low-energy dogs, she’d be happiest as the only pup in the home. She is currently working on her leash manners and dog reactivity and has already made great progress.

Quick stats!
--Dogs: prefers being the only dog/slow introductions should be made
--Cats: has not been introduced to cats
--Children: prefers being around older children
--Likes: playing ball, long walks, and one-on-one attention
