CANELLA

Description

Meet Canela!Canela is a sweet, affectionate girl who enjoys the comfortable things in life: sleeping, eating, playing, going for car rides, and spending time with the people she knows and trusts. Her former caregiver describes her as affectionate, attentive, well-behaved, and a little shy. She has a moderate activity level, reportedly walks nicely on leash, is crate trained and housetrained/pee-pad trained, and knows sit, stay, down, come, and shake.Canela can be nervous around unfamiliar people and may bark or growl when strangers approach her or enter the home. She’ll do best with a family willing to give her some space and let new friendships develop at her pace. Once she knows you, though, she has plenty of affection to share. She reportedly has no handling sensitivities and has no concerns with being disturbed while sleeping or having food or toys taken away.Canela has lived in a home with other dogs, although they were mostly kept separate and had limited direct interaction. Her former caregiver did not report concerns about her behavior with those dogs, but thoughtful introductions would still be recommended for any future canine roommates. She may also chase cats and birds, so adopters should keep that in mind when considering other pets.Canela may have some difficulty being alone and was described as sometimes crying when left by herself, so a family who can help her gradually settle into a new routine would be a great match. When asked about what she is most scared of, her owner wrote, `being alone.` ??If you’re looking for a gentle companion who may need a little time to warm up but has lots of love waiting for you once you get there, come meet Canela.
