Backstory: Mandy had to grow up with two younger siblings. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't make her lose her temper. She was always stuck being the caretaker when her parents couldn't find a babysitter. So, she'd distract her little siblings by flying around the room as a canary and then play a movie for them to watch and give them snacks and sandwiches. It worked when they were younger. Then they started shifting too and she had to stick around as a golden retriever to avoid accidentally getting eaten.
The way she found her forms is actually pretty funny. She found out about the goldfish when she was swimming in their family pool and wishing she could be a mermaid. She found out about the canary when she fell off the top bunk in the room she had to share with her little sister. She found out about the golden retriever when she got lost in the woods.
