The first time I saw Mandi, she was just a 10 week old puppy. She came up to me and crawled up into my lap. Then she tilted her head up and looked at me with those big, soul-full eyes. That was it. I looked up at Joyce Chin of Talisman Silkens, and said "If I get her, I am going to call her Mandi". And so I did. She is the little vixen, in my home. She loves to be the center of whatever is going on. If nothing is happening, she starts something. She loves to run and play with Beckett, and is a certified "swamp hound", getting into the water at any opportunity. She even places her muzzle under the water, and blows bubbles out her nose.
