Meet Canelo – Your Dream Companion in His Golden Years

Canelo is an 8-year-old pit bull with a heart full of love and a lifetime of loyalty to give. This gentle soul is the total package: calm, obedient, potty trained, and incredibly affectionate. He walks beautifully on a leash, gets along great with other dogs, and is wonderful with kids — truly a family-friendly pup.

Canelo’s previous owner was deployed for military service and, with a heavy heart, had to say goodbye. Now, Canelo is looking for a new forever home where he can spend his golden years surrounded by love and comfort.

Whether you have other dogs or Canelo becomes your one-and-only, he’ll fit right in. He’s a snuggle bug who loves curling up beside you, chewing on tennis balls, and playing tug-of-war. His playful spirit is still very much alive, but he also knows how to relax and enjoy the quiet moments.

Health & Wellness

Canelo may be a senior, but he’s in excellent health! He’s been well cared for and shows no signs of slowing down. With regular vet checkups and a healthy lifestyle, Canelo is ready to enjoy many more happy years with his future family. You get all the benefits of a mature dog — calm, well-trained, and low-maintenance — without sacrificing energy or vitality.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion who’s past the puppy chaos but still full of life and love, Canelo is your guy. Give him the retirement he deserves — and gain a best friend in the process.
