About Canelo

Meet Canelo, a true lovebug who captures hearts instantly. While his namesake might be a boxing champ earning millions, Canelo here has his own sweet charm to offer. After enjoying a couple of short-term vacations, his fosters can attest to his gentle demeanor. One described him as an affectionate couch potato who enjoys leisurely walks and relaxing at home. Canelo loves to be involved, whether it's joining you for long hikes or just lounging on the couch. He’s not overly clingy but surely enjoys being close by, often sporting an adoring expression. When it comes to walks, he’s respectful, walking nicely on a loose leash and reacting well to other dogs, approaching them with a calm independence. His volunteers rave about his cuteness, noting he’s not just a pretty face but also a smart boy who is learning new tricks. Canelo is eager to please, showing off his “sit” and “down” skills, and is a champ at waiting at gates and crossings. If you have resident dogs, a meet-and-greet is a must. Canelo isn't suited for homes with small pets, but with proper introduction, he will thrive in a loving home! Ask to meet Canelo today!
