My story

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

Desmond (formerly Bam Bam) is a lovely guy with adorable markings. He plays well, walks well, is eager to please and happy to participate. Food motivated and easy to train, gentle and easy going, he is super ready for "The Good Life!" Desmond almost lost his life, but he's here at Milo, happy and healthy and ready for YOU!! He is a very good boy, loves everyone, is appropriate and wanting to please.

(He does still need to get neutered, Sept 10th that will happen!)

On a recent walk, a volunteer noted that he was very appropriate with everyone he encountered: people, kids, bikes, and dogs. He took his cues from the volunteer's dog, and seems to gain confidence from another dog friend. He was sweet and very curious about the world!

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.
