About Cani

Cani is a pint-sized bundle of joy looking for a foster or forever home. This adorable Chi mix is estimated to be 8 weeks old and currently weighs about 5 lbs. Cani thrives on interaction, so she’s sure to get along with other dogs, cats, and children given the right training and patience. Living in a shelter in Puerto Rico, she's now hoping to find her way to the DC area. It’s important for potential adopters to know that puppies under six months require frequent potty breaks and exercise during the day. Therefore, family schedules should accommodate her playful nature and needs. Cani dreams of exploring the world alongside her humans, engaging in fun romps, and attending dog school to show off her intelligence. In return, she promises a lifetime of love and loyalty. While Cani has received some age-appropriate vaccinations, she will need additional shots as she grows. Adopters should note that she isn’t spayed yet, and arrangements must be made for this to occur before January 27, 2027. This young pup is ready to learn and needs a dedicated adopter willing to help her develop into a well-behaved companion. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
