My story

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

There is an adorable video of me on social media! Click here to experience the cuteness!


My #BoroughBreak Buddy Writes: I think the gray on Milly's face is fake, because she is a spritely girl with a forever youthful spirit! On Milly's boroughbreak, we took a long hike through the trails of Forest Park. She obliged when we stopped throughout the hike for some much loved scratchies, and allowed the paparazzi (us) to snap a few photos, then requested we keep it moving - Milly had many more miles of walking left had we let her! She's curious and confident. We even encountered some park rangers on horseback, to which Milly was completely unfazed by the 1000 lb animals. She was a bit vocal in the car (we never heard her bark, just some whining) but this seemed to stem from being excited for our adventure and not a disdain for the car. Milly truly has a lust for life. She is a palpably happy dog, the kind that would be a constant beacon of contagious joy for her family. I genuinely believe Milly not getting adopted yet is because she is accidentally overlooked, but she's a special girl who is sure to light up her adopters life.

A volunteer writes: Milly is all the things I love in a pup. She is the ideal age - 7 - old enough to have perfected the art of sleeping in but young enough to enjoy a nice stroll. She has a gorgeous smile, and knows exactly how cute she is. Her frosty face is seasonally on trend. What else could you want?

Milly was found stray in the Rockaways. She has been hanging out patiently in our small dog room, though she weighs just over 40 lbs. Anytime I pass by she perks up, wondering if it's her turn for a break. She's met a few dogs, each time with a soft body. She engaged in chase play with the first, and attempted to mount the others, potentially from stress or discomfort.

Milly is available to a home with experience and she's been waiting longer than we'd expect for such a pint sized, lovely girl. Meet her at Queens ACC!

What my friends at ACC say about me:


My history is a mystery and my friends here do not know much about me yet!


I love to be loved, but on my own terms! Let's brush up on some canine body language together!


I don't always like to share my food, toys or bedding with other animals.


I would do best in a home with only adult humans.
