And now, a few words from me:

Hi everyone, are you looking for an easy going sweet, gentle dog?  I have fantastic manners; when I meet someone I sit right in front of them so they can pet me.  I love going out daily for a walk and I will be in whatever room that you are when we are in the house together. 

I sleep in a dog bed right beside your bed until you are ready to get up and start our day together.  I love going for car rides.  My foster Mom says it would be very hard to find another dog with better manners than me!

I’m looking for a home that has a low-key companion dog in it so when all my humans must leave the house I will have company.  I will bark if I’m left completely alone so a single-family home would suit me best.  In my foster home I have other dog pals in it so when my foster family leaves I have others to keep me company and I don’t bark.

I have all the best qualities you could be looking for in a dog.  I love to be petted, I listen very well, walk well on the leash and I greet other animals very nicely.

Do I have you hooked yet?  If I do, put in an application because with my personality I know I won’t be around for long.

And now, a few words from my foster mom:

I can’t say enough good things about Mandy. She loves her walks, she greets everyone with a wagging tail and that includes children and other pets. 

It was discovered that Mandy has Symmetric Lupoid Onychitis (SLO) which means that Mandy has toe nails that don’t grow right.  Since being put on very inexpensive antibiotics and vitamins Mandy’s feet are doing well.  She will need to stay on the vitamins for the rest of her life to keep her toe nails growing properly.

Mandy at some point in her life must have gone through training.  She meets and greets everyone by sitting first so they can pet her.  She has a very gentle soul and she stays very calm around other dogs.  She would be a great therapy dog, she would love to go and visit people all day long.

If you are looking for a dog to be your best companion it would be very hard not to pick Mandy.
