About Milo

Click apply and let the tail-wagging begin! Meet milo, a lovable one and a half year old Beagle-Jack Russell Terrier blend with a lot of heart and personality. He's medium-sized, weighing in at 35 pounds, and has a handsome black and white coat that's low-maintenance with its short length. Milo’s friendly nature shines through with everyone he meets—he even warmed up to a young girl who rode along on his journey to his new foster home and enjoyed cuddle time. Milo has good house manners and is housebroken, making him a wonderful companion for someone ready to share their home. While his leash skills need a bit of practice (he’s eager and can pull a little), he is smart and motivated to learn. In his crate, he settles in with some initial noise but quickly adapts. Car rides are easygoing for him, but his true joy is having space to run and play in a yard. Toys, balls, and bones bring out his playful side—just don’t expect him to always bring the ball back every time! He’s affectionate, smart, and eager for a forever family to love.
