My name is Canelo!

His previous owner had cancer and Canelo found a home with us 9 years ago. It took a lot of patience, dedication and work to train him. He only knew life in a backyard. Canelo has experienced the dog park many times. Walks around the neighborhood with harness. Though he pulls hard, the walk becomes easier. When on a leash and other dogs approach , Canelo can be overprotective. He knows commands sit, handshake, down and kiss. Canelo is only mouthy when he really wants attention or misses one of his paw friends. He does get very excited when I am getting close to arriving at the dog park. To bring his excitement down, we take a few rounds outside the gated area. Bringing him in without decreasing his anxiety will being problems inside the dog park. He sheds once, twice a year. He gets excited when food is about to be served but waits patiently. Canelo is very sweet, does his business outside and loves to hear the word good boy.
