My story

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

Meet Milo!

This boy may be little but he has the heart of a lion! He's brave and ready to take on anything that comes his way! He would love an active home where he can have a job to do and squirrels to chase away. Milo has had some positive experiences with larger dogs and may do well with a laid-back canine companion. He even does well with young kids and would likely be an amazing family dog! He does not care if people touch his food, he doesn't jump on furniture, and he loads up well in the car!

Though Milo may seem like he's only ever in a "go go go" mindset, he does have a sweet cuddly side as well. Unsurprisingly, working dogs tend to have the hardest time living in shelters. They're bored! They need some daily mental stimulation and a quiet place to end the day and decompress. Just because he is small, Milo is no different! He loves to play with his toys, figure out puzzles, and he loves the occasional calm and gentle cuddle session. Give him a daily task such as carrying your groceries, "hunting" down a real (or fake) mouse in the house, or even just a walk to take in the scenery and he would be one happy boy!

Milo was picked up as a stray covered in old injuries, some fresh ones, and filthy. We were thrilled to see he was microchipped but when we contacted his original owners they did not want him back. We have no clue what this poor boy went through while he was out on his own but he is a dog that doesn't dread on the past and is ready to move forward into his new life! Could Milo be the perfect dog for you?

Call the Ranch to learn more about Milo today!

All of our dogs receive the best in veterinary care and are spay/neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and fully vaccinated.

The standard adoption donation fee for all dogs and puppies is $300

Additional adoption info

You will first need to stop by our rescue and meet our dogs! If interested in one of our dogs you will need to fill out an application. We also do a home visit if in the area, to make sure you have a secure and a dog-friendly environment. If out of the Siskiyou county area we can easily make other arrangements. Our adoption donation is $195.00. We have a reduced rate for seniors, the disabled, and veterans. Our "Senior for Senior" program offers a further discount and can help with the cost of dog ownership. The adoption fee for puppies who grew up at the Ranch (or in foster here) includes spay/neutering when old enough and is $295.00. All of our dogs are up to date on shots, heart worm tested and any medical issue are treated. Every dog that is going to a new home must be spayed or neutered before they leave Rescue Ranch.

More about this rescue

Rescue Ranch is a small no kill shelter. We have kennels for 22 dogs. We primarily take in dogs from city and county shelters in Siskiyou County before the dogs are out of time due to space limitations. We also make 3-4 trips a year to county shelters in central California to save smaller dogs that can overwhelm shelter resources in those counties. We started about 18 years ago with 40 acres far outside Yreka and were able to help many dogs in the county due to the efforts of the founders and many volunteers. In August of 2009 our new facility opened. We are now about 2 miles outside of town on 10 acres. We have been steadily growing through the efforts of the committed staff, volunteers, and volunteer board members. In 2012 we had 80 adoptions, 2013 we had 105 adoptions and in 2014 we had 167 adoptions. This year in 2020, we are projecting to place over 500 dogs into happy homes! We operate solely on the generous donations from the public and our wonderful volunteers. We have added boarding to our facility and all proceeds from the boarding fees are used to help with our expenses so we can help more dogs find their forever homes.
Our mission is to Rescue-Nurture-Rehome dogs into loving and safe forever homes---We do it for the dogs!
