Grace is one of 90 dogs from a rescue in Mexico that fell on hard times, came to California and their plans for a new location feel through. These dogs (and more!) were in desperate need of a place to go. So... Milo to the rescue! 18 of them are at the Milo Sanctuary.
Grace is well named. She is gentle, quiet, tuned in to humans, and does not stray. Grace is shy at first. She will not come bounding up to you upon first meeting. But she will slowly, gently, come to you. We are still getting to know her, so stay tuned! Better yet, call the sanctuary if you have questions about this gentle, quiet girl. (707) 459-4900.

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.
