Mandy
Freshly groomed today—check out her before and after photos! This 9-month-old girl was brought to a local shelter as a stray and is now in a foster home in Cranston, RI. The shelter listed her as a Yorkie mix; her breed is our best guess.

Her foster calls her the “zoomie princess.” She’s energetic and alert, loves attention, and wants to be with her people. She does well with other dogs and people of all ages. She loves walks, especially when she gets to visit the neighbors, and enjoys spending time both indoors and outside.

She’s quiet, sleeps through the night, and gets comfortable with familiar routines quickly. She isn’t fully house trained yet, but she’s making good progress. She will need to be spayed. Low cost voucher is an option.

** PLEASE READ... ADDITIONAL INFO YOU SHOULD KNOW**

- We do our best to describe and place based on personality, not breed label.
- If you have questions or concerns, please reach out, and one of our adoption volunteers will get back to you ASAP. Please be patient, we are all volunteers.
