Pet of the week

Canelo just turned 1. He is a German shepherd/pit bull mix who is still growing. He had a great birthday. Besides having his shelter condo decorated, he got a big bone-shaped birthday cookie, a brand new stuffy all his own, and a special play session in the yard with so many toys. He is quite social and has made many friends. There’s just one thing: Canelo has grown up in the shelter and really wants a family. He wants his special people … that belong to him. In his wildest dreams, he’ll find a family that's prepared to continue his training and take him on adventures. He still has lots of puppy energy and is always excited to learn new things. He is a pro at "touch" and "down," and is doing well with "spin," "leave it" and "place." Any children in his new family should be dog-savvy and 10 years or older since he’s still learning self-awareness. If you think you might be his people, come on down and bring the entire household, including any resident dogs, to meet Canelo. Stop by Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA to meet Canelo ID# A957053 or call (650) 340-7022 to schedule an appointment to meet him. Visit www.phs-spca.org for more information.
