About Kanela

Meet Kanela! This charming lab mix is a friendly, active girl looking for her forever home. At around 6 years old, she spent her days as a street dog in sunny Puerto Rico, soaking up the sun and winning over tourists with her sweet demeanor. Now, she's ready to leave those days behind and embrace a new life. Kanela gets along well with other dogs and is learning to navigate life on a leash and at home. Transitioning from the streets means she’ll need some training and socialization in her new environment, but her bubbly personality shines through her eagerness to learn. She's also available for adoption with a reduced fee, making her the perfect addition to your family. Will you be the one to give Kanela the best years of her life?
