My story

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

Meet Sylvester, the sweet and shy guy who's looking for a patient and loving home to call his own.

Sylvester may be a little timid at first, but don’t let that fool you—underneath his shy exterior is a heart full of love just waiting to be shared. It may take him a little time to warm up to new people and situations, but once he feels safe, he’s sure to show you his gentle, affectionate side. Whether it’s cuddling on the couch or simply being near you, Sylvester is happiest when he’s with someone who understands and appreciates his quiet nature.

Sylvester is the type of dog who thrives in a calm, low-key environment where he can take things at his own pace. He’s not demanding, but he’s eager to be loved and part of a family. He gets along well with other dogs and would do great in a home with a calm, patient companion who can help him feel more comfortable and confident.

If you’re looking for a dog who may need a little extra time to open up but will reward you with unconditional love once he does, Sylvester might be the perfect match. He’s hoping to find someone who will give him the time, patience, and care he needs to truly blossom into the sweet, loyal companion he’s meant to be.

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.
