CANNOLI’S IDEAL HOME:
- She enjoys a good sniff and spending time outdoors, she would benefit from a household that will give her plenty of time outside or in the backyard
- Cannoli would also benefit from obedience training with a Dog Trainer; this will help use that smart brain of hers and allow her to shine
- Cannoli would be best in a home with no other pets or small children; she has shown some resource guarding of her food and while we don’t have her history, this is likely stemming from her past. Calm handling, clear boundaries, and gentle, consistent guidance is required to help her learn she doesn't need to protect what's hers.
- Cannoli can be vocal and would do best in a home with no shared walls
