People have been known to pay princely sums for so-called ‘designer dogs’ at pet stores and over the Internet, so think of little Brandy (ID #A3693890) as the bargain of the century. Brandy, a female Maltipoo, is available for adoption at the L.A. County animal control department’s Carson shelter. But of course, the important thing about adopting a dog like Brandy isn’t saving money -- it’s saving the life of a needy pet!

Breed: Maltese/poodle mix

Age: About 4 years; Weight: 12 pounds

About Brandy: A special favorite of shelter volunteers, she is described as extremely sweet and friendly, full of puppylike fun and joie de vivre.

‘Brandy loves, loves, loves everyone she meets, and the feeling is mutual,’ says volunteer Evelyn Conley. ‘She wins them over right away!’ Brandy is kenneled with other dogs at the Carson shelter and ‘they think she is fantastic as well,’ Conley continues. ‘She gets along with all of them wonderfully!’

[Update 2/3: Brandy has been adopted; congratulations to her and her new family!]
