Farina - Pit Bull Terrier and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Atlanta, Georgia

Farina—affectionately nicknamed Cannoli by her foster—looks just like a sweet little pastry, and her personality is just as delightful. While it took her a little time to come out of her shell, she has blossomed into a spunky, loving companion who brings the perfect mix of snuggles and playful charm.

Even though Cannoli is 10 years old, you would never guess it! She still loves to play rough and tumble with her canine buddy Astro (formerly Baratheon), who is only 3. Her youthful spirit really shines when she’s playing or heading out for adventures. The only hint of her age is her adorable little smile—she only has a few teefies left!

She enjoys the simple pleasures in life: going for walks, exploring outside, and of course sunbathing and has truly mastered the art of begging when snacks are involved.
In the home, Cannoli is what her foster calls an "easy button" dog. She is lower energy, potty trained, and perfectly content free-roaming the house while her foster is at work. She gets along well with other dogs and would likely enjoy a home with a canine companion to keep her feeling young at heart.

Cannoli is a petite little lady with a big heart. She’s the perfect mix of calm companion and playful spirit, ready to spend her days soaking up sunshine, sharing quiet cuddles, and enjoying life with a loving family.

These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
