Cano's Story

Why choose me?<br/>Cano is a friendly, playful boy. As soon as he entered the interaction pen, he headed to the tabletop of toys. He was ready to play and chased every toy I threw for him. Of course, his favorite toy was the one he picked-a big, stuffed Tootsie Roll. Cano would sit for each throw, and he also sits for treats. He was adopted earlier this year and, hopefully, he'll be reclaimed, but if not, he's a happy, good-natured dog who'd love to be someone's best friend.<br/>* * *<br/>Post from earlier this year:<br/>Cano spent the icy weekend in a foster home, here is what the foster had to say about him: Cano is a great dog with a very good temperament. He is mostly housebroken, though he doesn't know how to clearly signal that he needs to go out. He's intelligent and playful. After one walk around the neighborhood, he knew which house was mine every walk after that. He slept on the floor next to my bed every night and was perfectly quiet. He is confident with other dogs and people and does not bark even if other dogs get excited and bark. He loves chew toys. He was a bit clingy, staying beside me everywhere I went in the house, but he was quick to learn my gestures and cues. He loves to come up and put his head in my lap for a good ear rub. This is a great dog that will quickly adapt to a new home. He travels well in the car. He's very trainable so he'll bring the most joy to an owner willing to invest the effort into making him a dog with good discipline. The foundation is already there. He will pull food down from tables and countertops so that's an early training opportunity.<br/><br/>Cano is a happy boy who couldn't wait to leave his kennel and be outside. He's a friendly boy who weighs 57 pounds but is still very much a puppy. He can be bouncy, so we worked on down, and he does know how to sit, so we practiced that with rewards when he'd sit instead of jump. <br/><br/>Cano's former owner said Cano is house trained. He's a good-hearted pup who wants to be someone's buddy.<br/><br/>You can read more about this dog and check out additional photos here: https://www.accgov.com/9482/Dogs<br/><br/>The adoption fees, shelter schedule, a description of the rescue and adoption process, and a list of included vetting can be found at https://athenspets.net/adoption-rescue-process.<br/><br/>This dog is available for adoption through Athens-Clarke County Animal Services, located at 125 Buddy Christian Way, Athens, GA.
