My story

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

Maddie is a gentle soul with a heart full of gold, she has had babies (we have them!) and was out of time at the Shelter, though tested very well with other dogs and is gentle and sweet with people!
Understandably a little unsure of the world around her, and more than ready to get somewhere calm and hospitable! While she’s eager to please and craves affection, Maddie needs a calm, structured environment where she can feel safe, secure, and slowly get used to being a beloved member of a family, even a family of one other, it just takes two, she is ready.


Maddie’s ideal adopters will be patient and consistent, offering her the gentle guidance she needs to become secure in the new world she finds herself in. Whether it’s through positive reinforcement, simple routines, or just giving her the time to adjust, Maddie is eager to learn and will reward you with loyalty and love.

If you're looking for a sweet dog, who will love going on walks and trips to the park, who just needs a little guidance and a calm environment to flourish, Maddie might be the perfect fit for you. She’s ready to bring her loving heart to the right home, and with your help, she’ll become the best version of herself!

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.
