Hank! The best boy! He is a 2.5 year old Presa Camaro mix (we did Embark dna as well) who is honestly an easy dog. Hank does very well off leash, and is very well balanced behaviorally. He is good with cats and almost all other dogs, but a home with a female or as the only dog would be best!

Story
I was playing basketball at the park one day and found Canelo running around. I assumed the owner was one of the people nearby and then I realized that no one was there to claim him. As I was getting ready to take him home and make a “Lost dog” posts on facebook/petfinder.The owner seen me and told me He jumped over the fence. Long story short,He told me he was gunna take him home but I also told him I would rehome him if he needed a place for Canelo. So I did that and fast forward to now,I’m having trouble finding a place to live due to landlords not being so open to dogs. So yeah,if your experienced,have time to play with him and go for walks.Then Canelo is for you. *He does have minor allergies so I prefer a place that doesn’t have dirt backyards etc. * He also gets along with my cat so he is friendly dog but I would suggest still that someone with experience needs to be the new owner. Thanks for reading this and thanks for your time
