Meet Panda, the Holiday Hero Looking for Love! This holiday season, a little guy named Panda—lovingly called Andy Pandy by his friends—is dreaming of a forever home where he can give and receive all the love in the world. Abandoned in the middle of the night, left in a crate at the shelter gate, Panda’s journey hasn’t been easy, but his resilient spirit shines as bright as holiday lights. Panda is young at heart, happy-go-lucky, and full of life! Whether he’s trotting alongside you on an outing or curled up on the couch for a cozy movie night, Panda is the perfect companion. He’s energetic when it’s time for fun and relaxed when it’s time to unwind. This sweet boy is neutered, vaccinated, his teeth are clean, and he is microchipped, ready to start his next chapter. Though he has a heart murmur managed by medication, it doesn’t slow him down one bit! With regular check-ups and his unstoppable spirit, Panda’s ready to be the heart of your family. Panda does well as a solo dog or with furry friends his size, and he’d be okay with older respectful children who understand his gentle nature. He’s pee pad and potty trained, crate trained, food motivated, and eager to learn and please. He walks beautifully on a leash, making him the perfect companion for festive strolls through the neighborhood. This holiday season, Panda isn’t just hoping for a home—he’s hoping for your home. Could you be the one to make his Christmas wish come true?
