About Mamba - The Inspiration of The Spoiled Dog Collection

Mamba was born on August 19, 2020, and we adopted him on October 31, 2020. He was one of nine abandoned puppies found in a box and taken to a shelter. We discovered the puppies on an adoption website, of a non-profit organization, that rescues neglected and abandoned pets at risk of euthanasia. 

While searching on this website, we saw a picture of puppies. We pointed at a puppy as “the one we would want” even though the adoption hadn't been decided yet. This puppy had a cute white stripe on the right side of his nose. We had a feeling it was the right decision to adopt one of the puppies. So we did! 

During the online application process, we had to choose a name from a list. The names weren’t paired up with pictures so we went with the name “Jordan''. A few days later we were approved for the adoption.

On the day of the adoption, we noticed the puppy with a gray collar that was chewing on another puppy’s collar. It was the cutest thing. When we inquired about the gray-collared puppy, we found out that his name was Jordan. Then we noticed that Jordan had a white stripe on the right side of his nose.

We placed “Jordan” inside the puppy carrier and we were ready to take him home. As soon as we got in the car, we called him “Mamba”! Mamba was so tiny. All we saw was his little head peeking out at us. He was so cute. He fell asleep the entire time in the car, all the way home.

With the alignment of things that happened, we believe adopting Mamba was meant to be. From pointing out Mamba in the picture, to choosing the name Jordan for the application. Then choosing the gray-collared puppy, named Jordan, with a white stripe on the right side of his nose. All were the same puppy! Our Mamba!

In addition, there’s a connection with the names Jordan and Mamba. Michael "Jordan" and "Mamba" (Kobe Bryant) are both NBA basketball legends.

We love Mamba so much and yes he is absolutely spoiled. Mamba is the inspiration for The Spoiled Dog Collection!
