Pet of the Week for February 1, 2025
Like the iconic Italian pastry she is named after, Cannoli is sweet and beautiful to behold. She has been with Friends of the Alameda Animal Shelter for a very long time, and we’re hoping someone will soon come along and treasure her for the wonderful dog she is.

This sleek, muscular 5-year-old girl is truly stunning.

Cannoli may look like a commanding presence, but the truth is, she can be a bit nervous at first. She needs some time to get used to new people and situations. So, on your first visit with her you won’t likely see the “real” Cannoli. But once she relaxes, she is affectionate and playful.
It will take time, but the sweetness of a future with this gorgeous girl is worth it. Please note that because of her initially nervous demeanor, she should have a home without young children or other pets.

You can meet Cannoli Wednesday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the FAAS main shelter, 1590 Fortmann Way.
