Say hello to Milo! Milo is a friendly but slightly anxious dog who’s looking for a patient, loving home where he can build confidence at his own pace. He may need a little time to warm up to new people, but with a gentle introduction, he soon opens up and starts seeking your affection! Milo would do best in either an adult-only home or one with older children. With other dogs, Milo is cautious and prefers his space. When he met another dog in the play yard, he initially showed interest but soon became nervous and darted away. Milo did go back to sniff the other dog but quickly retreated when the other dog tried to engage. With some gentle guidance, Milo could gain more confidence around other dogs, making him a great candidate for a family interested in helping him blossom. Milo would thrive in a calm, supportive home where he can take his time to feel safe! Could Milo be the right fit for your family?
