Canela3

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Canela was abandoned to the shelter by her "family" with the statement that we hear so often - child has an allergy. What we wonder is that if the child has an allergy, does this stop all your love for your dog, and you never even want to see them anymore....? This is what Canela was feeling, as she was crying heartbroken tears when she was thrown away like a piece of leftover furniture. She arrived to us also in the Parvocrisis time, so she ended up being locked up in quarantine for a very long time. Such terrible times for poor Canela. Canela is a dog that really really wants her very own person - yes, she will go for walks with different volunteers every day, but her heart cries for her favourite employee, whose face she sees every day, her favourite volunteers who take time to cuddle her during walks. She in truly a human's best friend, and dogs like these have an especially hard time living in the shelter. They are like shadows of their true characters, until they see their "own person" and they suddenly blossom like a beautiful flower. When Canela is with her "own people", she is playful, she loves to run together, to jump around from joy like a young deer. Canela is living together with other dogs in a group, with males and females and she is nicely social with other dogs! Just her food she prefers to eat alone. She has such soft curly fur, a beautiful long coat on top of her back. As she has been abandoned in such a terrible way, then she does suffer from fear of abandonment/separation anxiety. For Canela we are looking for a home where her people would be together with her most of the time, and who will especially in the beginning have time to let her feel at home. When you offer Canela something yummy, she does a circus trick where she sits on her butt and lifts her both front paws up! Our volunteer had such a fun time together with Canela, she was very excited and happy about the beach, digging, chasing waves, even playing with a few other dogs. Canela was trying to play with rocks also, but listens very well when you tell no. Canela is a very obedient girl and walks really nice on the leash, not bothered about bikes, scoots, kids, other dogs passing. She goes into the car by herself, on the way to the beach she was a bit nervous not knowing where she was going, but on the way back laid down immediately. Her shoulder height is 64cm.

About Canela3

What life with Canela3 looks like

Canela3 is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Triple A Marbella in Marbella.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇪🇸Adopting from Spain

Spanish protectoras generally include sterilization, all vaccinations, microchip ID, and EU pet passport in the adoption fee (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Canela3, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Canela3?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Triple A Marbella handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Canela3 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Canela3 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Triple A Marbella will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Canela3 already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Canela3 isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Triple A Marbella early rather than rehoming privately; they know Canela3 and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
