Meet Canela – Your New Best Friend!
Hi there! My name is Canela, and I'm a lovable French Mastiff with a big heart and an even bigger love for cuddles (even though I'm a big girl at ~120 lbs!). I was rescued from DAS in January 2020, and my current family believes I’m about 7â€Â׆ years old—but don’t let that fool you. I’m young at heart and still full of life!
I adore being around people and thrive on companionship. Whether it’s going for a walk, lounging around the house, or joining on car rides (my favorite!), I’m just happiest when I’m with my family. I'm not a fan of hot summer days, though—give me a cool floor and a fan, and I'm golden.
I’m potty trained and am trusted with free roam of the house. I know a few basic commands—okay, mostly just “sit,” but I do it well! I’m spayed, so no puppies in my future, and I get along great with kids, seniors, other dogs, and even cats. I’m just that friendly.
Some of my favorite things include:
Soft jerky treats (beef, please!)
PetSmart visits
Riding in the car
Dining at dog-friendly restaurants
Cuddling on the couch
Sadly, my dad is no longer able to care for me due to his health issues, and with a heavy heart, he’s looking for a loving new home where I’ll be just as spoiled and cherished. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate, and well-behaved companion, I’d love to meet you.
Could I tag along on your next adventure?
