to an animal shelter where it seemed she had found her happily ever after. But life had other plans — about a year and a half later, Canela was found wandering the streets once again. Thin, in need of care, and clearly having spent too long on her own, she returned to the shelter where staff helped her begin to heal. As shelter numbers rose and options ran out, Canela’s future looked uncertain. But fate stepped in just in time — thanks to the compassion of several rescue groups, volunteers, and a loving foster, Canela was saved and welcomed into the MAGSR family. Since then, Canela has been thriving. She was initially placed with a wonderful temp foster family. They ensured she received the medical attention and love she needed, and even helped her take her first flight north to a new beginning! Knowing that Canela would benefit from continued support within a knowledgeable placement, she was placed with one of our amazing foster families. Canela is a gentle, affectionate girl who can be a little shy at first. It’s clear she hasn’t always known consistent love, but with patience and understanding, her warm, loving personality shines through. She’s learning the joys of being part of a home — things like structure, routine, and kindness have helped her blossom beautifully. Canela will continue to thrive with a family who can offer her patience, consistency, and balanced training. Training will not only help her build confidence but will also strengthen the bond she’ll share with her forever family. If you’re looking for a smart, affectionate, and resilient companion who’s ready to start her next adventure with you, Canela might just be your perfect match.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
