Mango,5-Year-Old Female Tricolor Australian Cattle Dog

You could say I’m as sweet as a mango, but that’s low-hanging fruit. I prefer higher-brow entertainment like long walks, sniffing the grass, rolling in the grass, eating grass; I guess you could say I’m pretty grounded. I’m sure you can tell by now that I’m a pretty punny pup. But don’t label me as a one trick pony! Why, I’m not even a horse! No, you’ll see I’ve got a few tricks up my sleeve, which is pretty easy considering I’m always wearing my coat. And if you’re beginning to wonder if you and I may be a good fit, don’t worry, we’ll have a whale of a time, for all of my puns are on porpoise. So let’s go for a run in the sun, or I can show you my tricks right quick. We can play all day and laugh, though I’d prefer not to take a bath (see, told you I can do more than one thing). No matter the plan, let’s make today the best day that we can! If you'd like to learn more about how to meet me, visit AlexandriaAnimals.org/Adopt-By-Appointment.
