DogAdultMaleLargeDoberman-Pinscher
This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 28333 and the Current Location is in Foster Care. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Titan is a very handsome Doberman/Rottweiler and is looking for a new home. He would love a place with room to roam and massive amounts of exercise. He LOVES to chase sticks and rubber toys. We had him for 3 years on 20 acres of forest, where he was an excellent watchdog. Now that we live and work in town, we find he can't be left outdoors. Our yard is too small and he escapes within minutes to roam the neighborhood, scaring the postal worker. Titan is not to be trusted around children. He dislikes affection and does not like people to bring their face near his. He is fine around cats, chickens and other pets. His best talent is leaping and catching things in mid-air - he's quite gorgeous to watch and will play for hours. He also loves to swim, especially if it involves fetching.This is the Animal Description Footer 2/26/20 5:24 PM

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 28308 and the Current Location is in Foster Care. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Meet Ruthie! Ruthie likes all people. She is very social and loves to cuddle but she dislikes rough housing, fighting, or erratic behavior in people. Ruthie craves a quiet and calm household with no drama. Ruthie is house broken, she knows some commands and is good at learning new commands. Ruthie loves to go hiking and to off leash parks. She goes to Pt Isabel (an open dog park) and she is off leash and does great. She goes backpacking too and has her own pack she can carry. Ruthie dislikes cats. She lives with a cat and she is trained to leave the cat alone but this can be a frustrating situation for her so we recommend no cats in the household. Small children are too much for Ruthie so there should be no children under 14 in the household. If you are planning to have children in the future (or grandchildren) then Ruthie is NOT the dog for you. She gets along with other dogs but has her boundaries and needs other dogs to respect them. Shes currently fostered with 2 Chihuahuas and does great with them. Ruthie has gone on group dog walks many times, and lived with other dogs including a husky and other small dogs. She has extreme resource guarding issues for toys and high value treats. Therefore, her new family would need to understand how to manage this. Our ideal home for Ruthie would be a quiet and calm household. Somewhere where she has a large yard or property. No small children and no plans to have children or grandchildren. Shed be happiest where the person or people are active and like to hike or run. The foster thinks she would do best with no other dogs or other dogs that are not alpha but also thinks she could adapt to most other dogs just fine. Ruthie is in foster care heres how to meet a dog in foster: Please fill out our online application (http://milofoundation.org/aboutadopting.cfm), email it to us with the animals name and Milo number in the subject line.

Bright, sunny personality - eager to participate, and ready to learn! Bazinga loves the park. Wants to run with you, around you and adores the active lifestyle. He loves balls and squeaky toys.

Bazinga is a goofy, strong, loving dog who just wants to be by you and do whatever fun thing you're doing.

He is a dsh, 12.5 lbs, approx 4 y.o. and was neutered late July 2018. Although its possible hes still unwinding from being a tomcat, because he does not seem feral (does not scramble to get out of the cage or flee when he was out on the deck one evening), he is quite wary of humans. I was able to touch him briefly yesterday, 8/20, but today he hissed. Tommy appears in excellent health. Mostly white with black markings and a tabby tail, this handsome boy just wants to sit and relax somewhere safe. He has a very health appetite but has been too reserved (scared) does not seem motivated by treats.This is the Animal Description Footer

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. FOSTER NOTES: 8/23/18: Pocha has been with us for 2.5 weeks now. She is very gentle and does not bark. (She doesn't bark even when my dog is barking) She does not chase squirrels or birds but likes to watch them. She is friendly to all dogs we meet - greets them and moves on. Doesn't want to play with any dog beyond the greeting. She is not alarmed by strangers walking into the house which is great because we have our children's friends drop in all the time. She does not show food aggression, waits patiently at meal time. She is crate trained for night time sleeping. During the day I leave the crate door open and she goes in and out of the crate on her own. She is house trained and has had no accidents. She does piddle a few drops when excited around meal times. She uses the dog door to go out whenever she wants to. She generally prefers to spend time in the yard than in the house. We are working on sit, down and leave it commands using food for motivation. She mouths when she wants to play but never roughly. Shes a very gentle dog and has never shown any aggression. We gave her a bath at the PetFoodExpress dog wash station - she didn't like it but we managed. She loves to go running on trails in Tilden park - on leash. We've not let her off leash on trails. Pocha is very skittish about automobile sounds. She will stop in her tracks for 10-15 min if a car passes by while we are walking. Will not move even if we offer kibble.This is the Animal Description Footer

Zoya will need training on how to enjoy leash walking since she lived her life off leash in the desert with 71 other dogs. She is very dog social. She would love a more rural home with one of her mates and a well fenced yard. It will take her some good time to settle in to a home. She Absolutely can not be an only dog. Now at our Sanctuary with seven of her companions.This is the Animal Description Footer

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. *Volunteer Notes* Little Man is an an absolute sweet heart, handsome with soft, white fur and a touch of grey markings. He's a charming love bug, just needs a little coaxing to warm up yet brightens up when you come close, say his name and pet him. So once he does, be ready...he's an affectionate fella and loves belly rubs and to play with a feather toy! He is one of a kind, a gentle, sensitive soul who wants very much to relax in a home, to share his loving ways and be loved. Little Man was just surrendered to Milo with his companion, Mika. He is shy right now during this difficult transition and would do best in a home with Mika or another kitty. He is very sweet and gets along with cats and people.

Ziva is a beautiful, blue-eyed husky mix..... a bit shy and aloof until she knows you -she is protective and on the alpha side with other dogs, though can make friends she just doesn't like a lot of physicality with other dogs. A fabulous dog for a home that can provide good exercise and space. She is athletic and fun! Ziva is at our Sanctuary and has lived with a Jack Russell male who thinks he is the center of the universe so they keep each other in check, and with Snow Kitty another blue-eyed handsome hunk who accepts all other dogs gracefully and is somewhat aloof himself. Ziva Blue Eyes (we now have two Zivas) is wary of strangers initially, but loves her friends and is loyal and affectionate with those she knows and loves....wary of everyone else though. Cool, independent creature looking for her person. She gets along with other dogs who aren't pushy and in her face. Ziva can be very docile and sweet.This is the Animal Description Footer

She is great with children; is house broken; loves to play ball and is great on walks. She can be cautious around men, can be a bit reactive with other dogs and has some separation anxiety. Jade would do well in a home as the only dog, with an active family who have time and energy to share. *********** Watch a video of sweet Jade playing in the Milo dog park: Watch My Video *********** 5/1/18: Jade recently had puppies, and due to excessive bleeding was in danger of losing her life. After surgery she's currently on antibiotics and is on the mend at Milo, her babies are being bottle raised. Jade has a terrific calm demeanor now and sound temperament - we figure her energy level and exuberance for life will increase as she heals! So be prepared for a more active girl than how she presents herself at the moment - but a good girl she is for sure!This is the Animal Description Footer

Protector, hustler, ranch keeper.... people friendly, but will guard most likely once he establishes his pack and terrain, at least he'll alert and make someone think twice. Not a dog for the faint of heart or inexperienced. Slick is male dominant and needs a low stimulation environment to succeed in living with another dog - but with space and a female dog he can get along.... Someone who lives in a rural situation who wants a smart, quick, alert, challenging companion - Here's SLICK!!This is the Animal Description Footer

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 27087 and the Current Location is at the Milo Sanctuary. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. *Owner Surrender Notes* 4/2/18 Kikin is two years old cattle dog he is friendly with people but he needs training around other dogs. Kikin was born on April 27, 2016. He was one out of eleven. He was born in El Sobrante and his mother name is Chica, we do not have information about his dad. At home, he lives with his brother they are the same age, but recently they are getting into fights to the point where we have to keep them separated from each other. We never believed that having two siblings it was to be that challenging. Kikin likes to go for walk and run near the ocean he is not afraid of the water. One very important thing about Kikin is that he is deaf. Even though he is deaf he has some signal commands that he follows very well, such as, sit, and hi. I think that he can be an indoor dog, but he needs to be trained. We cannot have an indoor dog because some of us have asthma. Overall Kikin is a great dog that needs a family that can spend more time with him, a family that can help him to be that dog we know that he can be, but due to our schedule cannot help him right now.This is the Animal Description Footer

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 26855 and the Current Location is in Foster Care. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. 9/24/18 FOSTER NOTES: Daisy and Belle are darlings! Now that they've settled in, they are playful and loving. They greet me at the door when I come home every day and insist upon getting pets even before I can put my handbag down. They both love looking out the windows, wrestling together, and getting the zoomies together late at night. Daisy is a silly little girl, who loves wiggling around on the floor, playing with any kind of toy, and giving head butts to all the other kitties. She is also very fond of watching TV, and follows all the action on the screen. She's a talker, and will tell you all about everything. She's also VERY fond of mealtimes! Belle is a brave warrior queen. She explores everything. EVERYTHING. She knows what she wants and she's gonna get it. Love, toys, food, mischief ... if she wants it, it's hers. Now that she's had a chance to get comfortable, she loves to sit with me and purr, and show off her beautiful spotted tummy. Both girls get on well with my two cats, and my one year old has quite the crush on Daisy, and will follow her around. The girls are deferential to my old cat, and give him the space he needs, while allowing him to enjoy their company. They are such fantastic cats, and will be excellent friends to whomever adopts them! I so want them to find the forever home they so richly deserve. ******* *Foster Notes* Belle is identical to her mom, who was a stray. Out of all the sisters from the start she was the caretaker and protector. She is very nurturing and makes sure her sisters stay out of trouble, but she also loves a nice soft bed in the sun. She still has some of the personality traits of a stray cat, but once she knows she is loved she warms up quickly.This is the Animal Description Footer

She has the cutest little face and almost looks cross eyed at you. Daisy will meow a silly little meow when she knows she is getting fed. She can turn the simplest thing into a toy, even a rock and will play with it until she finds something she thinks is even a better toy, often another rock. Her parents were strays, so she still has some of the fear of a stray, but with patience, love, and treats she comes around. This is the Animal Description Footer

He is FIV+ so he would need to be the only cat in the house or live with another FIV+ cat and must be indoors only. He is super playful and curious and gets along well with cats and dogs. *Foster Notes* If there was ever a cat whose thoughts I would love to hear it would be Louie's. He is very curious about everything and loves to watch everything around him. He has been seen staring at a gopher hole for hours till he fell asleep sitting up, or watching a humming bird feeder. He also sits in a flower pot watching dogs play. You can tell by the look on his face he has a thought about everything. Louie was abandoned with many other cats over 2 years ago and has been surviving on the street. He has been picked on a lot by unneutered male cats, probably because he is smaller. Although when he gets his winter coat he looks like a cotton ball with legs. He can be mischievous at times, but has a good nature. He really just wants to be loved. He is good around dogs just as long as they don't scare him, then he can be a little timid. And the same goes for cats too. I think he just wants to find a safe and secure place so he can feel comfortable and watch the world around him. He's not much of a talker and when you hear him meow it's so soft and cute, and in the time I have known him I have never even heard him purr. But it is easy to tell when Louie is happy.This is the Animal Description Footer

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 26787 and the Current Location is in Foster Care. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Notes by Elle: Buffy Mari is a very intelligent senior kitty who communicates very well. Shes very interactive with all the animals around her. Interestingly she relates to everyone in the same way. The dogs, cats and humans all have the same ranking in her mind. Shes a very easy cat to live with. Never gets underfoot, non demanding, litter box perfect and in good health other than Asthma. Shes a calm, mature, adult kitty who loves to snooze, look out the window, snooze some more in her outside catio and eat. Did I say eat !! This girl is a foodie !! So if you serve a strict diet of anything dry pease look at a different bio. Buffy loves lean beef, all kinds of wet cat food, roast chicken and variety is the name of the game as long as its high quality and grain free. Shes 50/50 indoor, outdoor kitty. She loves everyone lately although thats not always been the case. But shes non aggressive and Ive never seen her hissing or growling at anyone or any kitties or dogs. To the contrary shes always trying to snuggle with any other animal or human around. Shes lovely to look at, especially when shes primping and posing. A delightful and well mannered little lady. She does like being pampered and shes good at getting what she wants in a very charming manner. Shes a tad independent at times just wanting to be left alone to do her kitty thang.

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 26630 and the Current Location is at the Milo Sanctuary. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Eowyn came to us with her Sibling Arwen from an overcrowded shelter that couldn't properly take care of them or socialize them. Both her and her sibling are extremely shy dogs that need a LOT of socialization to get them to act like normal dogs. Since coming to our Sanctuary Eowyn has blossomed and is now approaching some of the staff and enjoying light pets. She loves other dogs but has not yet been cat tested. She is extremely smart and LOVES cookies, so we believe she could warm up in the right home, especially if she had a resident dog that could show her how to be a little more confident. She will not walk on a leash and does not want to be crated, though we are working on that and it seems to be showing slight progress. All in all, she is a very sweet girl that would need a dedicated person to show her that the world and the people in it are not all that scary. If you are interested in adopting or fostering this sweet girl send applications and inquiries to sanctuary@milofoundation.org.This is the Animal Description Footer

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 26582 and the Current Location is at the Milo Sanctuary. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Starlight is an interesting, intelligent creature whos thoughtful and quiet. She loves having a small space of her own; her cat cave, preferably by a window so she can while away the day watching the world go by. However, if you bring out a cat toy shell drop everything to engage in a good game of chase the floating feather around the room. Shes not fond at all of other kitties or dogs but will co-habitate nicely as long as they leave her alone and dont invade her space. Starlight can be a bit of a Prima Donna but she is drop dead gorgeous, so shes entitled. After all Calicos are rare and prized for their beauty. She will need an adult only home. Starlight has tons of presence so shes perfect for someone seeking companionship. Shes very endearing, communicative and entertaining. Shes a bit of a fuss budget with her litter, covering whatever she deposits in the box, completely, working at it until it looks like a nicely wrapped Christmas gift. Thank you Starlight! Shes never missed the box once, loves her cardboard scratcher, which she lays upon, scratching away or snoozing for hours. Starlight likes to proceed at her own pace rather than be pushed into something she's not quite ready for. I believe this trait will disappear once shes in a home of her own and feels safe again. She came to us as a stray and its a big scary world out there when you are all alone and abandoned or lost. Shes a vision of loveliness who longs for a home of her own. She wants to be loved for who she is and looked after and cared for so she can relax again; enjoying life.

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. One Eyed Winkie is an interesting kitty. Thought to be feral when he first arrived but we discovered that hes not feral just a bit undersocialized. Hes coming along and one day, I believe hes going to blossom into an incredible kitty. Hes not shy..she just doesnt seem to trust humans very much at this point. Winkie loves the outdoors, is respectful of other cats, very interested in his surroundings. Hes a very handsome kitty, on the smaller side with long legs. Hes on the move most of the time, flitting about enjoying nature. A bit on the apprehensive side but with time hell trust again. If youd like to be Winkies friend for a few months of foster to help him trust again, please send a completed application to foster (found on our website) to info@milofoundation.org or feel free to call or text Elle at 415/350-0335 to chat about Winkie.This is the Animal Description Footer

Her pups were fostered out to a home and are all adopted. Makayla can be a bit timid and guarded upon first meeting her in her kennel or crate, but warms up very quickly once outside to the sweet, affectionate girl we have come to know and love! We think a little time and added positive experience with people is all she needs to build her confidence. Watch a video of Ms. Makayla in the Milo Park: Watch My Video Watch a quick clip of Makayla playing fetch- her favorite! Watch My Video Makayla is very gentle, sweet, and walks well on leash without pulling. Shes potty and crate trained, and will benefit from some basic foundational training and the added mental stimulation to increase her confidence. Shes very affectionate- enjoys snuggling her head into your arms and body, and gives the best ever-so-gentle hugs! Makayla likely suffers from some blindness in her left eye, although it does not seem to affect her much at all. Shes a sweet girl who has likely lived a pretty tough life thus far, but it seems to have only made her more appreciative of the kindness and love she is finally being shown here at Milo.

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 26348 and the Current Location is at the Milo Sanctuary. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Frank is an exceptionally handsome and interesting cat. Hes panther like with his strong muscular body and needs a large home with a safe enclosed outside area to run and play in. Did I say play? Frank loves to play, especially in cardboard boxes, cat tunnels and houses, laundry baskets, etc. Frank is hilarious when hes playing by himself or with another cat. Hes truly funny and so unique. Hes a gem, a treasure but you have to appreciate that hes independent and allow him to be who he is. Frank is a well mannered kitty but he can also get uptight if you try to make him do what you want him to do. You cant pick him up and move him to a different room, for example. He has a mind of his own and to make his own decisions. Hes a very cool cat. He stands out from the crowd in a lot of ways that will make your friends jealous that hes yours and not theirs!! Hes amazingly expressive and evolved in his own way. A one of a kind, not at all boring or ordinary. His coat is pure white...His azure eyes are large and expressive. Hes a sensitive boy who gets his feelings hurt easily, so please dont ever raise your voice with him. Hes a love child, a bit of a deer in the headlights who needs someone wholl pamper him a bit and look after him a lot. He shows his affection in a quiet way. Rubbing against your leg, checking in with you throughout the day, seeking closeness through petting, waiting for you to return, and sleeping by your side at night. Frank loves looking out the window, and looking for things he can bat around and bite. Hes a cat for grown ups, not for kids of any age or rambunctious dogs. He needs a calm, predictable environment that he can count on. He bonds deeply, likes other well mannered, non alpha cats.

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Tiny is one of a group of 45 cats that were accumulated by a lovely, caring woman in Hollister. When she could no longer keep the cats she reached out to Milo for help. We took all all the cats which otherwise would have gone to the Holister shelter where many would have been euthanized. Some of these cats were adoptable, some where feral like Tiny. We are committed to caring for all of the animals we take in, whether adoptable or not, for life. Tiny now lives at our Sanctuary in Willits. At this time Tiny shows no interest in interacting with humans. During the day she hangs outside with the other ferals in our free-roaming cat yard. At night youll find Tiny curled up in her favorite cat bed on top of the supply cabinet. Shes a very pretty kitty, very content and happy to be safe, well fed and cared for. For more information about Tiny please contact Elle at 415/350/0335. Tiny is available for foster only at this time. Fostering a cat like Tiny gives them the opportunity to come out of their shell, learn to be comfortable around humans and blossom. Its a wonderfully rewarding experience.This is the Animal Description Footer

They were all somewhat wild and Mia was the one that I had made the most progress with by the time I was forced to surrender them. She had begun to let me pet her and would snuggle up to me or on me at night. She was more comfortable with me if I wasnt towering over her. If she was on the dresser or the sink, she was more willing to let me pet her than when she was down on the floor and I was standing. She was also very relaxed and willing to let me pet her more easily when she was eating and I took as much advantage of that behavior as I could in hopes that she would get more used to the touching and affection. Shes good with other cats and she and her sister were still very close when with by the time I was forced to surrender them.

Notes by Elle: Barney is kind of a shy boy, well basically feral, preffering to hang out with other cats, not humans. He hasnt had that much experience with humans. He was a stray that was taken in by a kind hearted woman who loved cats, especially Barney. Unfortunately she was unable to keep Barney just when he was starting to come out of his shell. Hes non agressive but still slightly scared and a bit standoffish. But if you give this little guy a chance to get comfortable with you, we believe Barney will blossom into a lovely cat. Barney would benefit from some one on one time with a kind, patient person.

Shes light hearted and playful darting about the yard in pursuit of a leaf floating on the wind. Her pure white coat is soft as silk and her large Amber eyes are flecked with gold. Shes a head turner who catches everyones eye with her memorable beauty. She adores being outside romping around the garden and snoozing in the tall green grass. But she must be protected from the sun lest she get cancer on her un-pigmented nose and ears. Shes a delightful kitty whos a bit shy at first, but comes around quickly according to her foster mom. Shes a favorite of the Lead Animal Care Attendent and me as well. She likes to be close to us and be petted and played with. Shes gentle and playful; loves toys that bounce about on a stick and string, or chasing a lazer. She connects to her human very nicely, never demanding. She needs a safe, covered outdoor area to protect her from the sun, where she can play/run about; she wouldnt be happy in an apt. Shes dreamy so just watching her move about is a pleasure. Misty is truly beautiful, a lovely kitty.

Her silky soft multicolored coat is uniquely lovely as are her soft green inquiring eyes. She has a quiet, demure kind of energy and is a self assured cat although she's a tiny bit shy at first. She has allot of presence and likes to be close to her human, but prefers by your side, rather than on your lap. At least thus far, but that could change. She came from a situation where there were 40 plus cats so she never received allot of individual attention. I find her to be perfectly balanced in her need for affection and attention. She definitely stands out from the crowd with her above average beauty and her interesting personality makes her immediately noticeable. i believe she's still evolving and becoming more fully herself. She's going to blossom into a truly outstanding companion for some lucky human who wants to have a deeply bonding relationship with a calm adult cat. She seems to spend most of her time indoors, likes human interaction, gets along well with the other cats in the cat house, is litterbox perfect and loves wet food, although she eats dry as well. An all around great cat that would do well in a calm, predictable home environment with mature adults.

Abby loves people and will bring endless joy, affection and laughter to her new family! Although it seems this sweet girl has never known the life she deserves and longs for, her spirit and love for people remains strong, hoping today will finally be the day her family comes to rescue and love her as unconditionally as she will love them! All Abby asks is to be the only pet in the home and in exchange we know shell provide the all the love and affection you could ever dream of! When originally tested, Abby did well with other medium-large dogs, but her extended stay in the shelter seems to have made her weary of other dogs (not uncommon given the close quarters, constant barking, and exposure to larger dog-aggressive doggies...). Once settled in in a home away from the stress and chaos of the shelter life, its possible that Abby could begin to let her guard down and learn to trust other doggies again. Introductions will need to be done properly and with the help of an experienced individual, like a trainer or Milo staff. Many people enjoy and are looking to have a single dog in the home, and for those people/families, Abby will make the perfect companion! Abby is a compact, affectionate, active girl who enjoys walks, hiking, playing fetch, and especially snuggling up with her people, showering them in her love and sweet kisses. Abby loves kids and seems to recognize well that she needs to play more gently with them. Shes a natural family girl and wants nothing more than to be with you. Please consider fostering or adopting this sweet, loving, adorable girl today at Milo Foundation Sanctuary! *Rescuer Notes* 9/28/17 Abby doesn't have an extra survival story. She's not a hurricane victim. She wasn't lucky enough to have a great family before some disaster struck. She probably never had it that good.

Layla is an active, outgoing and demanding young dog who was adopted as a pup from Stanislaus and the adopters did little to be prepared for an active, demanding, affectionate dog. Layla wants to please, she is charming, bright, engaged and ready to learn from dog savvy people with the time and devotion for a companion dog that is ready to roll!! She is a super athletic champion in the making, and an excellent ranch dog running with four-wheel work vehicles, great recall, fast on her feet and super agile! Layla is full of intrigue, impulse (though her impulses can be controlled) she is enthusiastic, athletic and eager to take part, learn and love with outgoing people eager to have their dog be an important part of their life!! Layla is smart and can find a way out of many fences or gates... so she needs a secure high fence or to be indoors or crated when her people aren't home, she would follow people down the driveway and away if not contained! She so wants to be included in all adventures and activities. Layla is alpha with other females but is fine with them out and about as long as there is space and action - on leash she likely would be more testy - she runs with a pack and the four-wheelers at the sanctuary as long as there is a direction, a mission, she is great - she will wrestle and play chase with the best of them!

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Brody bonds with his favorite person and gets along with the others in their life. He loves to have someone play with him and his toys, tugging, throwing, and chasing him. He likes to go out on walks. He does not like it when his halter is initially put on in the house. Special Spot Farm treats have changed him to not mind getting the halter put on, but he skulks in it inside the house. Once outside walking, he doesnt mind it at all. He walks every day with a neighbor Chihuahua. Brody is happy when his family members come home and greets them with a wagging tail, some barking and dancing. He will sing when you have him on your lap and howl like a coyote. He is crate trained and doesnt need to get up early to be let out in the morning. He will adjust to your sleeping schedule. When he first came to his foster home, he would bite, hold, and tug on your pant leg, I think because he was unsure of the situation. He rarely does this anymore, but if he looks like he is going to start we tell him bed and he will stop and go into his crate. Love him and he will love you right back. Brody is house trained and has lived in a home with a cat. *Foster Notes* 10/27/17 Brody bonded very quickly to me, the person that walks and feeds him. He has to warm up to everyone else very slowly and his introduction must be repeated several times. He likes his crate and goes into it by himself when he is tired. He loves to play tug and will fetch, but not drop the toy yet. So far he only plays with me, the others are still a little scary for him and he gets protective of the toys. He takes treats gently from everyone. He walks well on leash and gets along with other dogs. He wants very much to please so he takes direction well. He will protect his person and his territory, so this needs work. He would be good in a home where everyone is calm and willing to give him time to adjust.

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. *Courtesy posting* Jolene is 4-years old, a tortoise-shell, and is mostly an indoor cat -- she has access to the outdoors, but prefers to stay inside. She's very loyal and cuddly (a great lap-cat), and a purring machine who loves attention from her caretakers. She's well behaved, and is remarkably attentive to her owner's routines. Jolene does not do well around other animals for the most part, but loves most humans who give her attention (and food). She needs a clean, private place to use her litter box, and several (up to four) scratching locations that are all her own. She has a larger frame than most cats, and is a bit overweight. This doesn't take away from her agility, however, nor her quickness and her fondness for perching on higher ground. Jo will willingly play with whomever offers her a string to chase, but is just as content to cuddle all day. She sheds during the warmer months, but loves being groomed. Her biggest concern is having an owner who gives her attention, and greets her upon arriving home. Jolene's favorite activity by far is purring on her caretaker's lap. Jolene is up to date on all vaccinations and has a clean medical record. She receives monthly flea medication. Please contact Henrik at (802) 989-2927 or at herbhenrik@gmail.com if you are interested in providing a home for this loving cat.This is the Animal Description Footer

Bert is a sweet handsome guy who loves to play fetch and get tons of pets! *Foster Notes* 9/6/17 Bert is incredibly smart and receptive to training. He is learning to walk on a leash. He is house trained. He would be best placed in a one dog household, at this time. He enthusiastic and needs training (he jumps, and is a little mouthy, etc). He is a bit anxious and very reactive with other dogs and will require more training. He loves the people he is with and tends to be protective of them at the house and car. He will need an active lifestyle with a lot of stimulation (or a job ).This is the Animal Description Footer

Reagan can be slightly weary of strangers when first meeting them, but warms up quickly to become an affectionate dogs but it takes time for her to accept new people. Once she opens up, she blossoms! Reagan loves to play with toys (see video link below). Shes in great shape and could be an active companion - hiking, running, walking, but is also perfectly content curled up on her bed or with her person. She can be incredibly gentle and affectionate- one of the sweetest and master of the snuggling arts. She has one of the softest and smoothest coats you will ever have the pleasure of petting. Reagan is a very intelligent and loyal girl, and will provide safety and peace of mind as a guardian of her family and home. According to one of her foster homes, Reagan is both dog and cat friendly! However she has also gotten in fights with dogs, sadly, she is living solo at our Sanctuary. A truly special girl, and certainly worth the time it may take for her to get acquainted! Because we are unsure of how she may react towards young children, we think Reagan will be best suited to an adult-only home. Watch a video of Reagan playing with her Jolly Egg: Watch My Video *Foster Notes* 11/7/17 Reagan is a sweet pup who loves to roll over and have her belly rubbed. She is an affectionate dog who loves attention but seeks it in a quiet and gentle way. She is very smart and learns commands quickly and is motivated to please her people and by treats (especially cheese.) She is great with my other dog, who constantly wants to play, and with my cat, who does not like to be bothered. Reagan rides very well in cars and is easy on the leash. She does very well at the dog park, too. Reagan does get a bit protective inside the home and barks at people who walk by or who come in. When we are out and about, she is very friendly with people.

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. **Adoption fee has been sponsored by the lovely April Kennedy who surrendered Husky Bear to us after his family abandoned him** * STAFF NOTES* Husky bear is an independent but loving dog. He enjoys being outside, always eager to take long walks and park trips. He does have barrier issues, but once hes outside his kennel hes the sweetest thing. He is very treat motivated but still needs further training for basic commands. He is for the most part calm and does not tend to jump on others. He would be best suited for a home with a lot of open area and a tall fence, as he does hop when lonely. Husky Bear has some prey drive and needs to be in a home without cats or small animals. Husky Bear has epilepsy and is on anti-seizure medication. Because of his seizures, Husky Bear needs to be the only dog in the home. He is a sweet and good boy who is very deserving of a loving family to call his own! He will do well in a calm and predictable household. Come meet Husky Bear at Milo Point Richmond and see if he could be the right companion for you!This is the Animal Description Footer

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. **My adoption fee is one half off! Adoption fee: $200.** Johnny is an amazing boy! He is very social, happy, affectionate and loving. He will greet you with a big smile and non-stop tail wagging. Such a sweet boy, he loves playing with other medium to large dogs - he's fine around small dogs but might be a tad too physical for some. Johnny can be wary of strangers entering the home once he's bonded with his person / people and can't be left alone in a yard since he can jump a fence if he wants to. He's athletic and wants to be where the action is! Otherwise, he is great being crated when being left alone. Johnny would love to go to an active and predictable home without too many unexpected visitors. He will do best in a no child household just because he is active, a little mouthy, and quite wiggly - but with dog savvy parents he should do well - but best case scenario is active fun-loving folks with the time to go out and play with their dog every day! This is a dog to lounge with, wrestle with - love on, and go have plenty of all kinds of adventures with. **My adoption fee is one half off! Adoption fee: $200.**This is the Animal Description Footer

She has a plush short, thick coat, piercing blue eyes! Once shes out and about and a little time is spent gaining her trust, shes very sweet and affectionate. She loves receiving and giving kisses and cuddles. Personal space doesnt exist much for her. She will need further socialization and some time to grow confidence with her new surroundings. She becomes nervous on walks, due to the new sounds and environment she is not used to. With her being up at Milo Foundation Sanctuary she has been in a large fenced in outside area with a multiple other dogs, learning to socialize and get used to new her surroundings. $450 adoption fee.This is the Animal Description Footer

Adoption fee: $200.** FOSTER NOTES: Shes done so well in Foster with me - shes so calm, gentle and beginning to show her age outside of the kennel environment. She barked zero times despite the noise that accompanies city life in North Beach/Russian Hill in SF. Fully potty trained in the home - zero accidents in the house. I wish I could keep her permanently!! Miss Daisy LOVES PEOPLE! Great with kids 10+ years old! EXTREMELY AFFECTIONATE/SNUGGLY; Masters in cuddling and companionship. Loves hiking, playing with and meeting people, chasing tennis balls and general physical activity, but equally enjoys snuggling up and lounging/snoozing on the couch. Walks very well on leash with her harness or halti/gentle leader. Belly rub connoisseur. Food/treat-motivated, but also praise/affection-motivated. Contagious smile and spirit! Will need to be the only pet in the home. HOUSE BROKEN/POTTY TRAINED! She loves people and does great on leash. She is protective when she sees another dog but when you encourage her, she begins to calm down, or if you walk the other way, she follows and ignores the dog. Loves to play fetch and tug. Loves to run around and always wants to go on walks. Would do better in a house with a yard than in an apartment. Sweet Daisy currently suffers from mild-moderate separation anxiety (as many shelter dogs do), meaning ideally she will not be left alone in the home for more than 4-6 hours at a time. Daisys separation anxiety will very likely decrease/dissipate over time once she gains a stable environment/forever home (as many shelter, etc. dogs does). *****STAFF/VOLUNTEER FAVORITE! ***** This hilarious girl is the resident joker here at Milo PR.

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 27960 and the Current Location is at the Milo Sanctuary. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Buster is an extremely playful, dog, he loves to chase sticks, pinecones, toys, and to play keep away with ropes. He loves hide and seek (you hide and he finds you) and is a brilliant boy. With his foster family, he has learned many tricks and commands, sometimes several in one day. He knows how to come, sit, is pretty good at down, and has learned touch (nose to your hand) in order to keep his attention on you during walks. He is super food motivated which helps make training easier. Buster is a lone ranger and wants to be the only dog at home. He loves his human family, but will need someone who will take the time and effort to train him. Buster has far too much energy and not enough training for children under 16 years old. If being adopted by a family, he would do best in a home where someone works from home and who will delight in teaching him agility tricks. Buster is very athletic and can jump really high and run lightning fast. Running is his main passion so the home needs to have land or easy daily access to land so he can run, run, run! Because he is so smart and curious, he needs the dedicated and loving attention of someone who can help train him every day until he reaches adulthood. He is extremely aware of his surroundings and will bark at noises that might disturb his pack. He is already crate-trained and sleeps quietly through the night there as long as he is close enough to his family. If given permission, he would gladly sleep on your bed with you. When he naps during the day, he loves to lie near your feet and loves scratches and snuggles. Buster is devoted pup who will offer immense love and protection and craves developing a strong relationship with his new family through training.This is the Animal Description Footer

He does well with periods of rest after play/walk and short time in the dog park. He loves fetching his favorite squeaky ball.

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. * FOSTER NOTES * Brewster is very smart. Training him in basic obedience was pretty easy but, as with all dogs, it takes constant reinforcement. He know sit, down, stay, heel and come. He knows to sit when I stop walking. When were home, hes a complete couch potato, happy to sleep on his bed. He chooses to sleep in his crate rather than in bed with me. Hell jump up on the bed when Im in my bedroom but jumps off when I get settled. He will follow me from room to room but doesnt pay much attention to me when he does. He isnt demanding in terms of attention but loves his scratches. He loves playing with other dogs, particularly when theyre off leash. He also is friendly toward dogs when they both are on leash provided the \ other dog is friendly. This is true in matter the size of the other dog. He isn't very food motivated. When training him, I resorted to using cut up pieces of hotdogs. Usually I feed him a combination of wet and dry food, which he sometimes ignores for hours. When its just the two us or someone that Brewster knows well, hes a sweet dog. Brewster can become protective of his person so ideally he'd go to a very rural / low key setting with not a lot going on.This is the Animal Description Footer

He is fully potty trained, but in unfamiliar homes he will try to mark on carpeted areas. Oscar likes playing with other dogs but he is not friendly to cats or children. He is used to being indoors most of the time with the family and outdoors for a few hours at a time when we are not home.

Gazpacho sadly has tested postive for Heartworm so will need treatment - he is a fairly mellow charecter so the long stint of cage or room rest wont be so very difficult if he can just hangout, go to work, or just stay at home in a quiet area... Gorgonzola and Gazpacho lived together their whole lives and are both charming. Their person passed away and they ended up at the Clearlake Animal Services and as they are middle aged or senior - little chance did they have, which is crazy because these are lovely dogs, tail wagging, happy, solicitous of affection, silly, adorable and looking for love and playtime! Once Gazpacho starts his HW treatment he will need to stay calm, keep his heart-rate low.... for a few months. he would love a home - adoptive or foster at least! Super sweet bog boy!

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 28847 and the Current Location is at the Milo Sanctuary. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Surrender notes: Yuba is a beautiful lab mix who loves her family. She is a pleaser who responds well to treat training and LOVES to play fetch with a ball. Shes very cuddly at night and is always ready to play. She does wonderfully in the crate, often going in on her own accord, and rides very well in a car. She will reward her owner with responsiveness to commands, eagerness to please and affection. She is house trained and generally very well behaved at home on her own but prefers to be with her owner as much as possible. Yuba loves to run and is quite fast when given an open space to let loose. She would do best at a home where she can run in a fenced area, as she often out paces a person's running pace when given the opportunity. A home in a non urban area with land for her to run would be ideal. She hasn't been trained on an invisible fence but would likely do well with that option as well. Yuba is an anxious dog that will need a patient owner who offers her a consistent, loving environment. Her anxiety and fear can complicate interactions with new people, animals and adverse situations and she has a tendency to apply this fear in protecting her owners. For this reason she will need a forever home that does not include small children or frequent new visitors. Yuba thrives in a steady peaceful environment that allows her a space of her own, such as a crate or cozy bed. She will really enjoy being as close to her parents as possible though, (bed/couch) if given permission. Yuba is a wonderful, loving dog that will thrive in a home that can provide her the space to run, peace and quiet, love, patience and consistency she needs to bring out her best.This is the Animal Description Footer

As she is an alpha dog, she is best suited to being the only dog in a home and no cats. She is happy to run and play in a yard; she loves treats and may do scent work hide and seek. She is best with stay at home folks with a big yard and as a running companion! This girl is a real go-getter like a big active lab crammed into a tidy little body thats bursting at the seams! Because of her active nature, Melody will do best in an environment with a tall, secure fence. Her above average intelligence has led her to become a bit of an escape artist and she is adept at climbing fences and opening doors (but not to run away... just to be with you!). However, these tendencies are fixable since Melody is a good listener who is eager to please. Melody understands hand signals and voice commands, she will stop any undesirable behavior with correction, and making the effort, providing consistency and enough exercise she will want to please!

He is not without his quirks, however, and does have a record of being possessive over valuable resources and does have some reservations when it comes to rough or unwanted handling, specifically grabbing his collar.

She is part of the initiation process at the Milo Sanctuary --- not a dog for the faint of heart! A fun and lovable little toughie. Since coming to the sanctuary she has won the hearts of every person she has met, which is no surprise considering she is absolutely adorable! Mira would be happy going for hikes, she's great off leash in the country with a pack, she;s into finding adventures or just cuddling on the couch all day, though she does love adventure and needs exercise. Mira loves people, but needs quite some time to warm up to strangers and does have the propensity to snap, when reached for, handled at her neck/collar, and if spooked or forced into interactions she isn't ready for. Because of this a home with children, or people who think they know better and will push her, would NOT be a good fit for her. With time and the proper introductions and get acquainted period, she is more than willing to roll over for belly rubs, play and give/get lots of kisses, and her nicer play bites. Mira has lived with both cats and dogs and got along with all of them very well. She is a truly special little dog and will make the right adopters, those who love a sense of adventure and are quick on their feet, with their hands and like a good laugh, very happy. She loves riding in vehicles too. If you feel you and Mira could be a good match, and you don't have children or a social epicenter for a home environment - fun loving adults and other dogs are fine!

He is a moderately high drive dog like most herding breeds and likes activity on his terms - as his insecurities keep him from being a Dog Park dog. He bonds heavily with a particular person and sometimes a particular dog - he is IN LOVE with the dog SNOW KITTY at the Milo Sanctuary, and would follow him anywhere. Shiro is wary of strangers but is very loyal to his owner(s) and for this reason he can be protective. For this reason he needs a very predictable , low stim. home to be successful. Training and building Shiro's confidence would be key to have Shiro flourish. *Return Notes* 5/20/17 Shiro is a super mellow dog. He just loves to sleep all day when we are at work. He does not bark or chew anything up. He is potty and house trained and never has had an accident inside the house. He is so furry and soft and has stunningly beautiful blue eyes. But if a stranger comes in - all bets are off... Shiro bonds very well with women and is more skittish with males. He also tends to get scared of men and tries to guard his female guardian sometimes. He does not like strangers coming up to him and gets protective of his owners. He would do well with experienced owners. We are not sure how he does with kids - Milo suggests a home without children for a myriad of reasons due to his stranger danger. He is insecure and can react poorly when meeting new dogs, but usually settles in and is fine - but can take some work with him and a new dog to get past the initial snapping and jitters, running with his tail tucked..... Shiro loves to run around and play fetch and catch Frisbee when he is not cuddling next to you. He loves the outdoors but is not a super energetic dog. He will just sleep all day or go for a walk with you. He loves squeaky toys and will just collect them from around the house if you hide them. He is intelligent and treat motivated.

He only needs minor work with house manners. After our evening walks, he would eat dinner and play a bit of fetch in the yard. We would all come back inside and hed settle down nicely as we ate our dinner. We set up a baby gate to create boundaries during the day while our baby is walking around and playing. He would sleep in the house in a large crate in the hallway near our bedroom. My nephews (12 & 15) and sister in law came over to meet him on Tuesday, he was awesome. Very playful, gentle, friendly. I made him wait by the baby gate upon entrance, then by the door, on the side in a down/stay, when they left. He managed well, the treat helped :) No accidents in house. At meal time we put him in a down stay just a couple of feet away from dinner table, it takes a couple of tries, but then he stays. We have a neighbor that works in his yard, Adonis gave a couple of barks, when I called him he stopped and didn't bother again. We have another neighbor with a feisty boxer who stuck his nose under the fence, Adonis barked, then got into a playful position. I called him, he came over and left the dog alone. He did ok walking with me and the stroller. He was trying to keep up with the stroller, would bump it and stumble a bit, so I was working with him to stay near my side. He kept rubbing the gentle leader to try to get it off. I was working with him don't rub to leave it alone. Not sure if he did that with you guys. He rode well in the rear compartment of the Ford Edge, no anxiety or whining , but about 10 minutes from the house he got excited and wanted to join us, so he tried to make his way over the back seat. He should probably ride in a carrier. We bathed him the day we got him at pet food express, he was perfect. I left him for an hour in the backyard when I went to the store, he was fine when I returned.

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Lua is a very active cattle dog. She loves to run at the dog park. Is crate trained and can be protective of her crate, and extreme food guarded, thus needs controls around her feeding routine. Lua would do best as the only dog in a home due to possessiveness though she is living with a boy dog at the Sanctuary. She can be alpha with other dogs - though not all .... *Return Notes* 3/9/17 She is house trained, can sit, stay, and come, on command. *Return Notes* 3/1/17 Sweet and loving dog but very dominant with our other dog inside the home. She was fine in the yard but doesn't like to share her favorite person. Is house trained and would check in with me at night when sleeping on the dog bed.

He's a lovely boy and very beautiful. Hes very engaging and interactive, sure to please. But he requires a very calm, predictable environment with out stress, where hes able to be indoor and outdoor; not an apartment kitty. He loves to get up on shoulders and is very affectionate! In the past hes been reactive when Alpha male cats, have pushed him around so hed prefer to be an only kitty or possibly sharing the house with a non alpha male or female. A calm, quiet environment with mature adults would be ideal for Pirate. Pirate is a favorite cat among the staff and volunteers. Hes a gentle loving kitty with a meticulously groomed fluffy black coat. Hed be an ideal companion in a very stress free home. He had some issues with spraying when previously placed in a very stressful, tiny condominium with a dominant alpha male cat. He loves wet food and also eats dry. We believe hes in good health and could do well in the right environment.

An athlete at heart, she would be an ideal addition to a household that can offer her lots of physical stimulation (large fenced yard, lots of outside playtime, etc). Very workable and walks beautifully with a gentle leader on leash. Della has had a few doggie friends here at Milo and could possibly be in a multi dog home, preferably with a male. No cats for Della as they excite her a little too much. Della is super solid with all people of all ages and would be a great addition to any family. Treat motivated and reacts well to positive reinforcement. Her recall is pretty good (would be an ideal hiking buddy) and her sits are super cute since she throws a little handshake in there. Della is a staff favorite and we'd love for her to finally find her forever home! Please email info@milofoundation.org for more information on Della Bee. Watch a video of Della Bee: Watch My Video Watch a video of Della Bee walking on leash: Watch My Video FOSTER UPDATE - She really loves when we get home and take her out to the backyard for exercise! She is much more mobile now after losing a little over 7 lbs! We are totally confident on her walking skills using her gentle leader and she will now sit and stay at every curb before proceeding. We took her for a few long car rides and she did great, napping most of the time. We brought her to our parents' houses and she was wonderful with them! She adjusted quickly to the new homes and found a comfy spot to hang out all evening while we ate dinner. Her recall was excellent even at different houses and she also listened well to her 'foster grandparentsThis is the Animal Description Footer

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. PORKCHOP! What a loaf of love. A big teddy bear really. Super sweet boy who was surrendered to us from a family after being dumped at their house. He is very treat motivated & is very workable. With some training, this handsome boy will be a GREAT boy! While Porkchop can have walking buddies , he should be in a single dog home. Porkchop also cannot do dog parks or dog beaches. **Foster Notes** Porky is such a ham... He is dashing, he is charming, an all-around easy-going, fun guy. He behaves well on walks. He is friendly with his people. He enjoyed getting a bath. In addition, he has a face you simply want to grab. With time, training, and love, he is going to be a great companion. He makes it easy to give him the TLC that he needs. *FOSTER NOTES* 2/17/17- Porky is by far the best dog I've fostered. He is such a bundle of love and an all around hunk. He has been so good with my 2 year old daughter who isn't the friendliest to animals ( lack of exposure on my part) He hardly barks and if he does it is so quiet my neighbors could not hear him. I live in an apartment complex so there is a lot of foot traffic and he did not mind even with the windows or door open. He is food motivated, so training will be a breeze. He had one accident in the house on the first night/ morning, but it is understandable as he was in a new environment. Porky did fine when he was left home alone for about 3-4 hours, he did not get in to anything, left my daughters toys alone and did not chew on any furniture. He also rides wonderfully in the car, he tagged along with me for my full day of errands and did not mind what so ever. Porky is a little too into other dogs while on walks, but is easily corrected/distracted with treats. Porkchop would be a great family dog or someone who just wants a companion, someone who doesn't favor dog parks and is open and willing to take the time to train him.This is the Animal Description Footer

Kitty is a social and playful boy, but he is a confident guy and can be possessive over toys/food etc so he would need to be in an adult only home that would work respect his quirks and work with him on this. He stands up on his back feet and does an adorable little dance with his feet when he sees someone that he knows approaching. He has a good heart and is a very intelligent guy. He is going to be just a fantastic dog for a bight confident and dog savvy person. Original Bio: One big furry fluff ball! Snow Kitty needs someone who is familiar with Nordic breeds and can give him the space, exercise, training, and leadership he needs. He is very dog-friendly and does not appear to be outwardly cat-aggressive, though we believe he'd be best in a no cat and no kid home! He is stubborn, willful and possessive and he doesnt take to being restrained. Snow Kitty had a stuffed animal and was very possessive and unwilling to let it go. He is a bit of a touchy fellow and needs adults who can allow him the space he needs - and also provide friendship and activity - he does really like playing with other dogs - males or females.Snow Kitty also had the name Griffin which is a bit more regal -- but this is not a joker, rather he has an independent streak, he is prideful and dominant in that he feels secure in himself and his right to have what he wants and do what he wants and really doesn't want a person telling him otherwise or demanding of such... he can get angry and takes some time to let him calm down - thus a savvy adult home is what he needs.

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Bear is a beautiful, very sweet and loving dog with lots of energy. He has great house manners, is potty trained, can be left alone for several hours. He doesnt need to be crated. Since he wasnt properly socialized in his previous home he initially is cautious with strangers but as soon as he realizes that visitors are no threat he loves having people around. He is kid friendly but due to his size and strength children should be 12 or older. He loves to play fetch and knows all the basic commands and then some. City life scares him. Therefore he needs a more rural home with lots of space to roam. Bear is very excitable and we are still working on loose leash walking. He does get along well with the other dog in his foster home, but does not do well with encountering other dogs. So no dog parks for him. He needs slow introduction with other dogs and due to his excitability can be overwhelming. When Bear is relaxed he is a fast learner, but his excitement often gets in the way. Bear is looking for a family that can help him to relax and trust, that can give him the exercise he needs and has the patience to teach him in a calm and loving way that the world is a safe place. No cats or other small animals for Bear.This is the Animal Description Footer

Sheila would do great in a rural setting with family members who are home most of the time. She would love a family with teens or perhaps a senior citizen caretaker who could be with her most of the day. Sheila is an intelligent, bonding and lovely dog! She is a small peanut, only about 40lbs..but looks larger in her photos. Sheila is looking for a home where she will get to be someone's sidekick. We would not recommend dog parks for this otherwise amazing girl, trails or the beach would be better! She has had a few doggy friends, all large, self assured and mellow males. She loves all people. Sheila does have a bit of prey drive, so secure fencing would be important. Very sweet girl - tail thumping, solicitous and happy - VERY HAPPY! GREAT DOG - a home with another well suited, male dog or at least lots' of people time and play time will be great for Sheila. Sheila would be a wonderful choice for anyone that wants an amazing, highly bonding companion, and would not need for her to be in extended, unpredictable, group dog situations.

Mowgli is an amazing sweet heart of a dog that is looking for the right home to help him through his fear of strangers. Once Mowgli gets to know you all he wants to do is cuddle and play ball, however, it does take some time to get to this point. Initially when meeting new people he will hide from them, if forced into interactions he may even bite. At fences he growls and barks but once actually introduced it becomes apparent it is mostly for show. However, he needs an attentive, dog savvy responsible person to make things work. Despite his faults, Mowgli is a very handsome and loving dog that will make the right owner very happy. We believe that given the right environment and guidance with an experienced adult only home, Mowgli could flourish and become an even more amazing dog than he already is. If you're interested in giving Mowgli the time, love and training he needs, and have a home that is NOT a social epicenter, then please send applications and inquiries to: sanctuary@milofoundation.org.This is the Animal Description Footer

She is sensitive and elegant - and fast! She can sit, shake, and lay down. She loves to chew on her bone and play with her Kong. She can be a bit nippy and territorial. She interacts and plays with our small dog just fine. Pearl is crate trained and we use this method when we leave the house. She eats a grain free diet - typically Turkey and sweet potato. She hasn't done well with chicken in the past, seems to upset her stomach. Pearl definitely needs to be placed with someone who has a lot of property because she is high energy. Our family hopes she will find a good home. Potty trained. Territorial around my kids friends. Needs a loving home with lots of room to run and play.

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Hieronymus came to us in '13 as a stray pig that had needed rescue from a shelter. He found a family very quickly, but due to circumstances beyond their control, they recently lost their country home and are no longer able to keep him. We had initially thought that he was a pot bellied pig, but as he matured he grew to look more like mini-pig mix of sorts. Hieronymus likes his back scratches and to eat fruit from your hand, but he is not the kind of pig that can live in the house or go for walks with a harness. He is not a mean guy and does not bite, but can be a bit crotchety and would likely preffer an adult home. The ideal place for him would be another country home where he can just be a pig, preferably with other livestock that he can be friends with. He has not yet lived with other pigs to our knowledge, but he hung out with the family cat and also enjoyed the company of a neighboring donkey.

He can be such a lovely, cuddly and sweet boy but he does get overwhelmed when overstimulated and does also have the tendency to be leash reactive and over protective of his home and family. many of these traits can be typical of a herding breed dog that does not have a job and that need further training. He can get along very well with many dogs, but he does have a tendency to be controlling with them especially in his area. The ideal home for Viggo would be in a rural home with lots of room to play, with an adult family that was going to both shower him with love and affection, and also show him that he can stand down and does not have to worry about protecting them or the home, and that it is there job to protect him. Training and activity would greatly help Viggo settle into himself. He is very loving and submissive with the staff, and we know he would just thrive and blossom in the right home!

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 22556 and the Current Location is in Foster Care. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Foster notes: She is fearful, but never aggressive. She dislikes noise and activity. No training other than walking on leash. Does well w/ other dogs, is submissive, no resource guarding. She needs an adult-only home with someone to stay home with her, help her trust, it's a slow process. Sanctuary Notes On Maggie: Maggie was the mom of the beautiful Pyr pups that were born here at the sanctuary and have since all found loving homes. Maggie came to us pregnant with her family members from the neglectful home described below. When she arrived to us with her seven family members in the back of a horse trailer she was very frightened and as we then discovered, almost full term with pups. It was not until she had her pups that we were able to pet her and show her that we meant her no harm. At no point when we were handling them did she ever try to stop us, which would have been understandable. Maggie still has along ways to go in building her confidence, but she is not an aggressive girl in the least and needs someone to help her adjust to being loved. Maggie is the most submissive of the females. We do not feel that she will ever get to the point where she is bounding around a dog park and jumping up and licking strangers, but we feel that she could certainly form a close bond with a special and patient person and live a happy and quiet life with them. Maggie is the smallest of the group, and for reasons unknown to us only has half of a tail. She is a gentle yet timid girl that is looking for her place in the world. Group notes: Milo took in seven beautiful yet under-socialized Pyrenees that had been seized from a hoarding situation, but were then set for euthanasia due to lack of space at the shelter. We have been working with them to gain their trust as they were not raised as family members, and some are making great strides. Because of this, they are looking for very patient, understanding and rural homes that will continue to work with them to help thThis is the Animal Description Footer

Sanctuary Notes on Savanna: Savanna was nicknamed Smiley, as when she first came to us she would watch us with interest and a big smile on her face. She came in with a group of seven other pyrs from the neglectful situation described below. I thought for sure that she would be the first to warm up to us as she seemed to have the most confidence and did not seem as fearful as the others, but she would always keep her distance, playfully smiling at me from behind a tree. We now have them in an area with access to indoors and outdoors in our main building, where they are getting used to seeing us all throughout the day. We have found that although Savanna seems to be adventurous and inquisitive, she is still unwilling to let us actually pet her and will skip away last minute. Because of this we are going to switch gears and give her and Leo more undivided one on one attention to help her past this hurdle. She will happily stand at arms length from me, smiling and eat treats, but gets confused when we reach out to make physical contact as this was not likely the norm in her last home We have high hopes that we will have the needed breakthrough with Savanna, and would love a specific patient foster home to help her get there! Group notes: Milo took in seven beautiful yet under-socialized Pyrenees that had been seized from a hoarding situation, but were then set for euthanasia due to lack of space at the shelter. We have been working with them to gain their trust as they were not raised as family members, and some are making great strides. Because of this, they are looking for very patient, understanding and rural homes that will continue to work with them to help them to realize their full potential. None of these dogs have ever bitten anyone and even the most fearful will run and bark when scared or unsure of a situation rather than show outward aggression. They had not been raised walking on a leash and were living in a large fenced area together whichThis is the Animal Description Footer

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 22550 and the Current Location is at the Milo Sanctuary. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Sanctuary Notes on Malakai: Malakai is a beautiful big headed boy who has shown from the beginning that he has reacted differently to being under-socialized than the others in his group. Malakai seems to be the beta of his family group, and would put himself in time out when unsure, rather than run away with the others. In the first week, I could approach this sad sweet boy and pet him and he would stay in his corner, even when the others were running from us and barking out of fear. He was very submissive and seemed to have shut down during his time in the shelter in which all the dogs were separated from each other. He would let the others eat his bowl of food and seemed to have given up. We now have worked out a routine where they have indoor/outdoor access all day and sleep inside at night and he will now go inside and out when asked and is more interactive with his group. He has put on weight and has come more out of his shell. Even though he still needs quite a bit of help building his confidence, Malakai seems to be a rock for his brother Leo who is the most fearful of the group, who will allow himself to be pet only if he is sitting on top of Malakai (which he never objects to even if Leo is sitting directly on his head). We can pet, brush and kiss Malakai with no objections, but we would LOVE a foster (or adoptive) home for him where he can settle in and feel more safe and secure, as our goal is for him to actually approach people for love, rather than allow it quietly and hope for the best, breathing a sigh of relief when it is over and no harm has come to him.

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 22291 and the Current Location is at the Milo Sanctuary. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Sanctuary Update : Bozworth has been a very sweet and loving guy with the entire staff. He is a big sweet goof that loves attention. He and our big alpha girl Nikki get along extremely well and can fully be trusted to be alone with each other, although we do feed them separately to be safe. Bosworth has been trained to jump into his crate at meal time and can stay in the crate for some time after without putting up any fuss. He had some issues with house training in a foster home, but now being able to use the crate as a training tool will certainly come in handy! When walking by the other dog yards he does get worked up and attempt to fence fight with them if allowed, so it would be ideal for his person to be strong and training minded especially if you live in an area where he could encounter them on walks etc. but the ideal home for Bosworth would be in a country setting with dog savvy folks, either as an only dog or with one other female dog that he has proven to get along well with during a meet and greet here at the sanctuary. Big, loving and handsome guy! Bio before sanctuary transfer: Handsome, big white Shepherd. He is easy going, and a good walking partner. Though he pulls initially, he calms down. Gentle and sweet with children, loves rides in the car. A loving and loyal addition for a family or couple with time to share with their dog. Bozworth lives with a BIG GIRL Nikki and does great, though in a home he likely will be better solo, he can have some attitude towards other dogs - if he is to be mixed, he needs a strong, dog savvy person with ability to do proper introductions, and read his body language - first he needs to know he is not in charge. Bozworth has a totally charming side to him - but he is not for the new initiate or the faint of heart! A big love with people, if you have a property and want a large presence who is also a sweetheart he's a great candidate! *Foster Return* 11/15/15 Bozworth loves to travel in vehiclThis is the Animal Description Footer

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. PLEASE READ ALL NOTES before inquiring about Niki. She is right for the right home, which is not most homes. Experience with large dogs, and very dog-savvy adopters only. Niki is now playing in a yard at the Sanctuary with Snow Kitty - two giant fur-balls! Niki can act like a giant puppy, but she can also snap when handled in a way that she is not comfortable with. She is a big girl that does not like to give up control so touching her belly/feet etc is something that is not recommended. She can get along well with some male dogs, but should not be with female dogs and can be picky about some males as well. For this reason and her reluctance to be touched in certain ways she would not be recommended for dog parks etc. and should be in an adult only home with folks that know how to establish themselves as both the pack leader and a trusted friend. She does need strong leadership, while being fair, kind and showing her lots of love. Former Bio: Niki is an owner surrender from a home that didn't have the time for her and kept her outside on a chain. She will need some training for basic obedience but is very smart; she knows sit, and when she is feeling in the mood she will give her paw, too. This is a strong girl, and she needs a yard and a home with patience, that is willing to commit to training. *Return Notes* 9/17/15 Wonderful dog, smart and cuddly. Loves outdoors and swimming. Would be great in a one dog house hold. She did not get along with our alpha female.

He has issues with resource guarding and is fence reactive to the point that he will zone out and forget that the person on the other side is a friend. He has great potential, but this is a dog that wants a job, activity and training! He has taken his resource guarding to the point that he has actually bitten people and other dogs. He needs an outlet for his energy and the right person to work on his behavioral issues. He is very food motivated and we have been working to teach him to sit and wait for his bowl, and to eat once he has been told to get it . Shadow loves and craves attention and affection. If you have a predictable, adult only home and feel that you are willing and able to give Shadow what he needs to be a happy and content companion, please email us at sanctuary@milofoundation.org Past Notes: His main issues are resource guarding and high drive. He is very ball motivated, He is a great swimmer and it is serves as a great anxiety reducer for him. He will charge off and should be on a long line. He does return. He is a natural hunter and needs extensive training for his behavior issues. Someone with patience and understanding. I truly love him.This is the Animal Description Footer

Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. **6/15/19 Foster Notes: Boodles loves to be around his person, very affectionate and he loves to sleep with you. He does best with teens and up as younger children may overload him with hugs and kisses that can cause him to lash out. An ideal home for him would be with multiple people to love him and quiet enough so that he wouldn't be stepped on by children.This is the Animal Description Footer

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 21706 and the Current Location is in Foster Care. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Sanctuary Update : Gidget has been in a foster home in Ukiah but we would love a new foster or forever home for her. She continued to have difficulty with the leash and house training and her foster tried to work with her on both but she kept having accidents in the home and could not grasp the concept of going outside when she needed to go potty. Because of this she currently shares a cabin and a yard with two other dogs rather than being loose in the home (which would be ideal for her in order to continue building trust.) The little doggy cabin is heated and has furniture etc and she is allowed to come into the house daily to jump up on the couch with her foster mom and when settled next to her she can pet her and give her love. She is loving playing/cuddling with other dogs and is no longer hiding from her foster mom and will come up to her for treats, but still lacks the confidence to solicit attention of her own. She is a non-aggressive little girl that loves other dogs, but she continues to not be able to grasp the concept of not peeing inappropriately and will need continued patience and time to build trust as she is still an aloof and flighty little girl. Please email mn@milofoundation.org if you feel that you might be able to help Gidget move forward with her socialization/housetraining. Former Bio:Gidget is currently at the Milo Sanctuary. Her friend Tink has been adopted but she has made new doggy friends. She continues to be shy, but she is clearly a sweet little girl who would love to be in a stable and loving home. If you would like to help a wee one who is in need of a foster or adoptive home in order to build up their confidence, Gidget would be a wonderful choice! You could make a huge difference for a sweet little lady who very much wants to trust and love. Please send applications for Gidget to mn@milofoundation.org *Former foster notes* 6/11/15 Gidget and Tink are sweet girls. They are timid and need time to trust people butThis is the Animal Description Footer

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 21278 and the Current Location is at the Milo Sanctuary. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Notes by Elle: Jeremy is a remarkably distinguished, gentlemanly looking cat with a snow white meticulously clean coat set off by jet black markings. Hes a playful, light-hearted, whimsical fun loving, very sweet, well mannered kitty. Never pushy or demanding attention or affection he will get what he wants with a comical move that catches your eye and draws your attention to him. He gets along well with all the the other cats here at the Sanctuary. He shows affection to some of them but usually stays to himself or lately he joins the group surrounding me. Jeremy would do well as an only kitty or as part of a group of kitties. Jeremy would be a delightful companion for anyone who could provide a quiet, calm home life. He has no experience with dogs so would likely prefer to live without them, unless it was a small dog, his size and very cat friendly. Jeremy is a winner whos lots of fun due to his very upbeat personality. Whether you Foster or adopt youll enjoy Jeremy. to have around. Jeremy resides at the Sanctuary in Willits CA but can be shown in San Francisco and the North Bay area.

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 21277 and the Current Location is at the Milo Sanctuary. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Reagan is one of the younger cats of a large group that came to the sanctuary after their caretaker passed away. She is shy and not yet ready to be held, but does love to be pet in a calm environment and will even lean into your hand for more. Reagan is warming up more and more all the time. If you are interested in fostering a shy kitty, we may have great candidates to choose from which could help them to become more adoptable. Young children may be too much for this group, but they could blossom in a quite adult home.This is the Animal Description Footer

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 21057 and the Current Location is at the Milo Sanctuary. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. *Foster Notes* 11/26/17 We have been hosting Buddy since Nov. 8. It is very difficult to believe he is nine years old. He charges up stairs with no problems and doesn't slip on hard floors. He is ready to walk whenever asked and is an easy boy on a leash. He does prefer the sniff & trot method of progress but does not pull to go faster than his walker. We have not had him off leash much, but he has not been at all reactive to any of the dogs we have encountered on daily walks around the neighborhood or in the parks we have visited. He had a couple of off leash dogs run up and engage him in greetings, one dog very friendly and one not. He was cool and calm in both situations. He has been on car rides over two hours and is always ready to go out on errands. He also likes to have zoomies around the yard at full tilt. Buddy would dearly love to chase the squirrel resident in one of the trees in our yard and will bark a bit when he spots the squirrel. We have three chickens in a separately fenced area and he pays attention only when they raise a fuss. We did try him on the leash when we had the chickens in the main yard but he did get interested in them then. He was very good about laying down and ignoring them when asked. We don't have a cat and so cannot judge how he would be with a cat. Buddy is pretty good about being groomed with the furminator. He doesn't play with toys or fetch but is always ready for a belly rub. We have been able to get down on the floor with him and handle him anywhere. He does alert bark and sometimes growl when people come to the door, or the fence, often while wagging his tail. We are working on getting him to be less tense and happier about the door issue. His people in the past have taught him to sit, lay down, and shake a paw. He is not a cuddler but does like to stay close. He has to check on each person if they are in separate areas of the house and likes it best when everyone is together. Buddy is a housetraineThis is the Animal Description Footer

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 20917 and the Current Location is at the Milo Sanctuary. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. This sweet boy is back at Milo after being in a home for three months. *Adoption Return Notes* 10/25/14 He needs to run so walks are a must, loves to chew especially on blankets. Fetches a ball and anything else thrown. Best suited for adults that don't live in a social epicenter as he can develop guarding issues and be a bit of an ankle biter. He needs space and respect, consistency, exercise, he is an adorable, enthusiastic little guy who could be great in the right home!This is the Animal Description Footer

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 20538 and the Current Location is at the Milo Sanctuary. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. Lady is a special girl, who needs a very special home! She is protective and needs someone who can be in charge, so she is less likely to feel the need to protect. Her biggest issue is when you look into her eyes (which can be a sign of you challenging a dog). Lady is super dog friendly, great with big or small dogs. She is house trained, knows sit/lay/stay/shake. She loves treats and loves to cuddle. The home we are looking for, would be an adult home with no kids or adult kids. One that doesn't mind a challenge but will be the boss she needs in a home. She has great potential to be a great dog. If interested in this lovely Lady please email an application to info@milofoundation.org and info@milofoundation.orghis is the Animal Description Footer

This is the Animal Description Header The Milo Foundation AnimalID is 20276 and the Current Location is at the Milo Sanctuary. Please see our website www.milofoundation.org for the current status of this animal. TOBIAS IS A SPECIAL BOY, NOW HAPPILY BEING OUR HORSE, PASTURE, BARN CAT! He is available as a SPONSOR CAT, $50 a month will take care of daily care and food for this fine fellow who greets visitors and staff coming out from the bushes around the horse paddock. He is wily and clever, dislikes other cats and is persnickety with humans, but so much happier now that he has his designated happy place with the horses, goats and donkeys! Tobias is very sweet. He loves attention (his way, and in his time frame) from people and will talk to you until you say hi. He can be demanding with his want for affection and will usually hop up in your lap. Tobias seems to get overstimulated after about 10 minutes of attention, likely from being played with too roughly as a kitten. He has bitten people on occasion, which is why he now lives at our Sanctuary. A few notes from our volunteers, TOBIAS is a handsome black cat medium large with orange eyes. He comes over to me at once and jump up in my lap where he snuggles. Clearly a very civilized guy. While he sits there he likes to groom my hands and look at me. Then he enjoys being massaged in return. An extremely gentle cat. The minute I come in he is in my lap staring up at me with those huge gold eyes. A classic black cat. He will not get out of my lap even when I try to get up!This is the Animal Description Footer
