Mandy AKA Peanut

My story

🐾💛 Meet Mandy (aka Peanut) – A Gentle Soul Who Just Wants a Cozy Place to Rest Her Paws Name: Mandy (aka Peanut) Age: 1 years Breed: Mixed Breed Personality: Sweet, calm, affectionate Medical Note: Has severe arthritis in her back knees; needs a quiet, low-impact home Status: Spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to be loved Mandy—affectionately known as Peanut—is a tender-hearted girl with a face full of love and eyes that say, “Thank you for sitting with me.” She’s been through a lot, and now she’s simply looking for a soft spot to land—a calm home where she can finally relax, feel safe, and be loved. Mandy has severe arthritis in her back knees, so she moves slowly and carefully, and may need a little help getting around. But don’t let that fool you—she still has so much love to give. She enjoys gentle strolls, warm sunny spots, and belly rubs that last just a little too long. Mandy’s favorite things: 🛏️ Soft beds (the fluffier, the better) 🐾 Short, slow walks with plenty of sniff breaks 💞 Quiet companionship and gentle affection 🍗 Tasty snacks and being told she’s a good girl She would do best in a single-pet home or with other very calm animals, and with someone who understands the needs of a dog with chronic pain. She may require daily medication and joint supplements, which the shelter team can help guide you through. ✨ Mandy isn’t asking for much—just a quiet corner, a warm lap, and someone to love her through her golden years. 📍 Come meet Mandy (Peanut) at the Humane Society of Charles County 📞 Contact us at (301) 645-8181 💌 Adoption Fee: $300 MANDY IS A FREEDOM FRIENDS ELIGABLE PET! At the Humane Society, we deeply value and honor the service and sacrifice of our veterans. To show our appreciation, we are offering a special opportunity for verified veterans to adopt an animal at 50% off the adoption fee. This offer applies to all animals who have been in our shelter for 6 months or more, giving these wonderful pets a chance to find the loving homes they deserve, while also providing veterans with a loyal companion. Mandy has a minor physical condition affecting the formation of her back knees, which causes her kneecaps to sit slightly out of place. While this sounds serious, it doesn’t slow her down—she enjoys a fantastic quality of life! To keep her comfortable and thriving, Mandy simply needs leisurely walks rather than strenuous exercise. She also takes a daily joint supplement to support her joints and manage any potential discomfort. With the right care, Mandy is a happy, loving companion who’s ready to enjoy life at a gentle pace with her forever family.
