My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Dixie is a ten-pound funny one! She had pups and now pups are adopted, it's Dixie's time to shine, get comfortable with more people, trust and have FUN!
She is a scamp and an escape artist with wander lust but comes when called, however not to be trusted outside alone. Her curiosity gets the best of her. She loves riding in a vehicle, likes going on hikes, walks... she's not had a ton of leash walking.
She loves toys and chew sticks and such. She loves other dogs, would enjoy being part of a pack of 2 or 5!
She can be wiggly and "like the wind, fast out a door.
She is gaining confidence and social skills.
Dixie loves snuggling and cozy dog beds with friends.
She is clever and with patience and consistency could become a mini agility dog, or any number of things, as well as a charming companion.

More about this rescue

The Milo Foundation is an established 501(c)(3) nonprofit, no-kill organization providing an alternative for homeless pets throughout California, through education, adoption services, and providing sanctuary for animals until permanent homes can be found.

Founded in August of 1994, The Milo Foundation Sanctuary is located on two hundred and eighty-three acres in Mendocino County - offering lots of room for the animals to run and play. The Milo Sanctuary animals typically (but not exclusively) are harder to adopt animals and those needing more rural type homes, such as dogs with social or behavioural challenges, feral cats, horses and other farm animals. The Milo Point Richmond Adoption Center is where the majority of our new rescue intake takes place, typically friendly, adoptable cats and dogs, puppies and kittens rescued from shelters where they were facing euthanasia. The Sanctuary is where highly active or reactive dogs can go and have plenty of space, other canine companions (if they are dog friendly) and live in a stress free environment until such time as the right adoption match can be found.

The Milo Sanctuary is what enables Milo to be a No-Kill organization. Milo brings dogs back and forth from the Adoption Center (MPR) to the Sanctuary to give dogs a break from the stresses of the kennel environment and back to MPR later to try again at being adopted. Potential adopters also do come up to the Sanctuary to adopt, by appointment.
