🌟 Meet the extraordinary Millie, an English Cream Golden Retriever with a heartwarming story! This girl is not your average pup; she’s a survivor and needs a very special, experienced home. 😢 Last fall, Millie faced a harrowing experience when she was dumped in the woods, likely by a breeder who didn’t understand her needs. For over two months, skilled dog trappers tried to rescue her while she evaded all their efforts. Can you imagine? She weathered two hurricanes all alone, surviving without shelter! 😱 Thankfully, in November, Millie’s luck changed when she got stuck in someone’s yard and was finally captured—talk about a miracle!✨ When she arrived at her foster home, Millie was in rough shape, battling fleas, ticks, and sadly, she was heartworm positive. But look at her now—she’s been spayed, treated for heartworm, and is ready to find a loving, understanding home. 🏡 Every dog lover knows how incredible dogs can be, and Millie adores them! 🐶 Her ideal day is spent blending into a pack of furry friends, always looking for the company of another dog, just to feel safe. While she loves her canine companions, Millie is a bit wary of humans. She would rather hide away than be around people and can get pretty anxious with sudden movements or noise. 😬 Therefore, a savvy dog owner is a must for this beautiful girl! Millie needs a home with at least two large dogs to help her feel at ease and confident. She’s thought to be cat-friendly too! 🐾 But here’s the catch—she needs a securely fenced yard that stands a full 6 feet tall because jumping shorter fences is her specialty! Millie is not for first-time dog owners—she requires a dedicated human who never lets their dog off-leash or uses retractable leashes, ensuring that her newfound freedom stays safe! 🚫🏃‍♂️ She’s looking for that helicopter parent who keeps a close eye on her and understands that escaping is not an option. As a 2-year-old, spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped girl weighing around 65-70 lbs, she’s ready for her forever home—which should be no more than an hour away from Tampa. 💖 If you feel your home might be the perfect sanctuary for her, she’s waiting for you.
