Meet Mandala!

This handsome boy made his way to Animal Friends through our Humane Investigations department – through no fault of his own, Mandala has spent the last 3.5 years waiting for his court case to clear. Mandala is looking for an adult-only, single pet only home – and his ideal adopters should not live in communal housing and understand he should not go to dog parks, to help him avoid other dogs and be his best self. Mandala is also currently undergoing muzzle training and is doing an incredible job with it! Since Mandala has been with Animal Friends for a few years, our staff and volunteers have learned a lot of sweet but goofy information out about him – more specifically how he loves having his face massaged to help him fall asleep but also how he gets the zoomies that replicate a tornado.

This 60-lb. boy is also a part of our Foster-To-Adopt program, which means for 4 weeks our trainers here at Animal Friends will work with you and Mandala on his behavior and training within his new home to help him acclimate.

If you’re interested in this goofy boy, fill out an application at ThinkingOutsideTheCage.Org.

All of our animals are altered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines before being made available for adoption. Please read our adoption guidelines and start your application before coming to meet one of our animals in person. A typical adoption can take up to an hour. Please visit at least one hour before closing if you plan to adopt that day.
