Cane, sweet like Sugar Cane - Carolina Dog Dog for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Hi, I'm Cane!

Carolina Dog Mix / Weight: 36.2lbs / Estimated birthday: 6/8/2025

Have you been searching for a fun-loving adventure buddy? Well, I think your search might be over!

I have a beautiful cream-colored coat, giant ears that seem to have a mind of their own, and a personality that's just as big as my ears. My foster family says I'm always smiling, always ready to play, and always excited to make new friends.

I absolutely LOVE people and other dogs! If there's a chance to play, explore, go for a walk, or join in on whatever you're doing, count me in. Sitting around all day isn't really my style... I'm a young girl with lots of energy, curiosity, and excitement for life. I would love a family that enjoys adventures as much as I do!

When I'm not busy having fun, I'm busy giving out love. I'm a friendly, happy girl who enjoys being part of the family and making everyone around me smile.

My story started with a little heartbreak. I found myself on the euthanasia list at an overcrowded county shelter, but thankfully the amazing people at Sunnyside Street Dogs gave me a second chance. Now I'm safe, loved, and patiently waiting for the one thing I've never had... a forever family of my very own.

Could that be you? I promise to bring plenty of laughs, adventures, and tail wags into your life. All I need is a chance to show you what a wonderful best friend I can be.

Love,
Cane

*We coordinate with multiple transport services that operate weekly to Eastern states and bi-weekly or monthly to Western states from Texas to your state or a neighboring state. These are ground transports using third party vehicles (vans/buses) converted for dog transport. Each adopter has the ability to track the van using the app Life360, and receives updates from transport along the way. Facebook chats are another resource to stay informed on tracking dogs on transport. Please be able to use one of these available services if you wish to follow your adopted dog on transport.

*Our adoption fees are based on the vetting we put into each dog. Fees for puppies (under 12 months) are higher because they require more vetting than dogs over 1 year.

*Listed breed and age are based on a best guess estimation by rescue and veterinary staff; DNA tests are not included in adoption.

*Our adopters are eligible to receive 50% off training with Curbed Behaviors Dog Training for programs booked within 30 days of adoption, and 25% off programs booked within 60-90 days of adoption.

*All of our adopters are invited to join our Alum Pupdates Facebook group, to share their story and their adorable pup with fellow Sunnyside Street Dogs adopters!

The Carolina Dog, a primitive breed known for its wild ancestry, is a medium sized, agile, and intelligent dog originally found roaming freely in the Southeastern United States. With a distinctive appearance marked by erect ears, a bushy tail, and a sable coat, Carolina Dogs are highly adaptable, affectionate with their families, and wary of strangers, making them excellent watchdogs. Their natural hunting instincts and independence require consistent training and an active lifestyle to thrive in a loving home environment.
