Canelo- pending adoption
Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat) · Adult (9 years 6 months) · Male · Large · Livonia, MI
Notes from Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue
Adoption fee sponsored! Meet Canelo – Your Dream Companion in His Golden Years
Canelo is an 9-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.
Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue microchips all dogs and cats before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the shoulder blades and are another form of identification should the animal get lost. The microchips are registered to Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue. The adopter's information is added once the adoption is complete. The adopter is responsible for a $19.99/Year registration fee or a $69.00/Lifetime registration fee to change information. Dogs and Cats still need to have collar with tags should they get lost.
