My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

To learn more about Mandarin and Hearts for Paws, go to: https://www.heartsforpawsrescue.com/219873/2024/2/16/mandarin

Mandarin has been lovingly hand-raised in foster care since he was 6 weeks old. He currently lives with both dogs and cats.

Mandarin is also housetrained, knows how to use a doggy door and is fine left alone for 3-4 hour intervals. He can take a few minutes to warm up to new people, and has done well with respectful kids. He has received professional training through Saturn Dog Training in Sacramento in preparation for his forever.

The ideal home will be ready to commit to 10-15 years of dog ownership; a backyard would be most ideal as he has grown up with one. He may do well with another dog in the home, good with cats, but could also be a solo dog to the right applicants. We would recommend a home with kids 8-10+.

DOB: 11/21/23 Neutered Doberman, Shepherd, Mixed Breed estimated 60-70 lbs full grown

$250 adoption donation - vetted, up to date on age appropriate shots, dewormed, fecal tested/treated, flea tick treated & available w spay agreement addendum by/before 6 months. They are all microchipped with lifetime registry.


Ideal home will:

Have the time to commit to all things puppy! Please note puppies do not do well left alone long hours. Long work schedule where the puppy would be left alone for 7+ hours can be difficult on most puppies and young dogs.

Solid plans for puppy socialization, positive exposure and continued training + relationship building -- commitment not just to puppyhood but to a lifetime of love, care, companionship and vetting. HFP advocates for Positive Reinforcement only for young puppies and training that focuses less on "obedience" and more on confidence building, relationship building and consent training.

Preference to homes w/ friendly & well-trained dog role models (preference, NOT required)

Interested in adopting?
1. Please complete our online form at heartsforpawsrescue.com/adoption-application
2. We will respond in 1-3 days for a call!
3. If it sounds like a potential match for you and the dog of interest, we will promptly set up a meet and greet at the foster home

Please note we are a foster-based rescue meaning our dogs are in individual foster homes throughout sac and the bay. For this reason we may only be able to schedule meets for one dog at a time (or litter). The average timeline between app submission and a meet and greet is 3-5 days. Please only submit an application for a specific dog if you are ready to adopt that animal within a week's time.
