Canelo’s absolute favorite toy is his squeaky fetch ball. After a good game of fetch, he loves to settle in and chomp on it nonstop just to hear that irresistible squeak—it never gets old for him. When it comes to treats, he goes wild for Badlands Ranch Superfood Nuggets with Bison and Kale. One mention of “go get it” and Canelo is instantly alert, tail wagging, and ready to earn his favorite reward. 🐾
Canelo’s most unique quality is his incredible blend of talent and intuition. He’s been riding skateboards since he was a puppy—hopping on with one leg to build speed, then cruising confidently once he’s moving. Just as remarkable is his emotional awareness. If anyone sneezes, coughs, or cries, Canelo rushes over to check on them. He’s not just clever—he’s deeply compassionate, the kind of dog every dog lover adores.
Canelo isn’t just a Shih Tzu—he’s family. At 4, he’s insanely handsome, endlessly affectionate, and a fearless miniature protector who alerts us the moment someone nears our door. Playful like a puppy, he loves cuddles and even skateboards. Canelo embodies loyalty, joy, and the love that makes dogs America’s favorite companions.
