(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Jingles! He is a special guy whose tail jingles a mile a minute. He is a happy fella that may have been born with or experienced some previous trauma that has led to what we think are neurological and brain function, and mild depth perception issues. He's a busy boy with a lot of motion and circling. He likes toys, loves treats!! This doesn't seem to inhibit him from loving life, and wanting to have fun! He will need to find a family that not only has experience, but are also willing to take on the quirks that make him so special. He will need to meet everyone in the family prior to adoption, and we recommend no kids, teenagers are fine. Any dogs he is to live with need to be tolerant and non reactive. Positive reinforcement training is recommended to help teach him manners, he grabs at food so some caution is needed when giving treats.

Story

Pongo is a real ball of energy, with enough enthusiasm to keep you going all day long. Due to his excitement, Pongo can be a little mouthy at times, so you might want to invest in some sturdy chew toys! Despite his playful nature, Pongo is also one smart cookie. He's always eager to learn new tricks and commands, and with the right training, he's sure to be the top dog in no time. However, it's worth noting that Pongo may need some extra guidance when it comes to being around kids. He's still learning the ropes, but with patience and lots of treats, he'll be the perfect family pet in no time. Please call 707-459-4900 if you would like to meet Pongo.

Story

LOCATION: SANCTUARY IN WILLITS, CA. Shiro likes to play with toys, and is very smart. He is a moderately high drive dog like most herding breeds and likes activity on his terms. He likes his walks but his insecurities keep him from being a dog park dog. He bonds heavily with a particular person and sometimes a particular dog - he is IN LOVE with the dog SNOW KITTY at the Milo Sanctuary, and would follow him anywhere. Shiro is wary of strangers but is very loyal to his people and for this reason he can be protective. He needs a very predictable, low stim. home to be successful. Training and building Shiro's confidence would be key to have Shiro flourish. *Previous Notes* 5/20/17 "Shiro is a super mellow dog. He just loves to sleep all day when we are at work. He does not bark or chew anything up. He is potty and house trained and never has had an accident inside the house. He is so furry and soft and has stunningly beautiful blue eyes. Shiro loves to run around and play fetch and catch Frisbee when he is not cuddling next to you. He loves the outdoors but is not a super energetic dog. He will just sleep all day or go for a walk with you. He loves squeaky toys and will just collect them from around the house if you hide them. He is intelligent and treat motivated. He was able to learn how to sit and was learning how to stay in just a few training sessions. *Shiro has probably had a rough past. When the vet examined him, we found a pellet in his x-rays. It is probably from being shot. He bonds very well with women and is more skittish with males. He also tends to get scared of men and tries to guard his female guardian sometimes. He does not like strangers coming up to him and gets protective of his owners. He would do well with experienced owners. We are not sure how he does with kids - Milo suggests a home without children for a myriad of reasons due to his stranger danger. He is insecure and can react poorly when meeting new dogs, but usually settles in and is fine - but can take some work with him and a new dog to get past the initial snapping and jitters, running with his tail tucked. *He needs lots of love, affection, and discipline, which we were unable to provide with our busy lives." *Shiro is not a first time dog, nor a city dog. He has fairly severe stranger danger and a bite record, he has fear based aggression to dogs and people. He needs a predictable environment, and a buddy dog. Interested please email an application to sanctuary@milofoundation.org Thank you for considering adoption of a Milo Foundation Sanctuary dog. Our Sanctuary is where our rescued dogs who have had difficulty in a home in the past, have behavioral issues, or too much energy, or for some, aggression issues with other dogs, or intense stranger danger that make them more difficult to safely and happily live in urban environments. These are not beginner dogs or for the most part nor are they for families with children. IF you are looking for an easy dog to add to your family, we suggest looking at the dogs at our Adoption Center, Milo Pt Richmond. BUT, if you can offer a safe and nurturing home to a dog with some behavioral "quirks" please do send an application today. Thank you.

BENNY

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

This beautiful, sweet and playful boy is looking for a family with breed experience who can appreciate his love for fun and adventure. He's a big fan of water and loves activities like swimming or playing near lakes and streams. He's great with other dogs and would do well in a family with children 10 and up who are familiar with his playful nature. His wrestler playstyle means he enjoys roughhousing and playing games, so he's best suited for a home where his playmates can match his enthusiasm, he can be a single dog too. Friendly and family-oriented, he's ready to bring joy and love to a home that can give him the structure and attention he deserves.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Shiloh is a lovely, easy going Australian Shepherd, who sadly lost his owner. He was well cared for and loved. Shiloh is confused about all the changes, but is a sweet-natured fellow, loves going on walks, and sticks close by you. Social and sweet with other dogs, at least initially, but may become possessive of his people and grouchy towards others getting between him and his desired person in the home particularly, though he does take correction - he is also a tad stubborn. He is a lovely dog looking for a loving moderately active family, as he loves his walks! He may be most successful, or easy as an only dog in the home. However, he was fostered successfully with dogs and a cat, and got along. The cat is very dog savvy and calm, doesn't run. Shiloh is also very well housetrained, sleeps on a dog bed - goes ten hours with no problem. Shiloh seems to be great with kids, but a bit wary around some men, So in short, he needs space and time, and may take awhile to adjust, but clearly has some things from his past coloring his comfort levels in new situations. He's a slow and steady kind of guy!

I acquired Tony in Seattle 4 years ago. He is around 4 now. I am dealing with some home issues that will likely continue for a while. Tony has some behavioral issues including jumping on people, high energy and attachment anxiety. I am looking for a home that is able to serve the needs of Tony and provide for him a patient loving home. He is fully healthy as far as I know.
