Canela is a gorgeous, brindle basenji/dachshund mix. She was found as a stray on the streets of Costa Rica. It wasn't safe so a local rescue took her into their care. Canela is 3 years old, playful with dogs, friendly with everyone, no cats as Canela likes to chase, and simply needs a forever home. She is spayed, utd vaccinations, dewormed, microchipped, Snap 4dx negative, and vet checked. If interested, please email dcdgavel@gmail.com for an adoption application.
