About Kanela

Meet Kanela! This charming lab mix is about 6 years old and originally from sunny Puerto Rico, where she spent her days as a street dog.

Now that she's in South Carolina, Kanela is eager to settle down and enjoy a more stable life. She has mastered her house and leash training during her time with us and gets along well with other dogs, making her a great companion. She'll need continued training and socialization in her forever home, but her sweet disposition and bubbly nature suggest she'll thrive. Plus, she comes with a waived adoption fee! Kanela is ready for her next great adventure—could it be with you?
