About Milo

Milo is a blue American Staffordshire Terrier mix, weighing about 65lbs and around two years old. A true shelter survivor, he's eager to start over in a house full of love. Milo does best with structure and thrives with an assertive adopter who understands him. He’s crate and house trained, rides well in the car, and walks nicely on leash. A fenced yard is a must, and he does better in homes where someone is around more often than not. Milo gets along well with everyone he meets and is especially sweet, but he should be in a home with older children. He’s had professional training and knows commands like place and waiting for the okay to eat or go outside. His new person or foster will have training support to keep up his progress. Milo probably isn’t a match for a home with cats. At night, he sleeps happily in his crate, but he dreams of curling up next to someone in bed. He’s affectionate, playful, and just looking to finally belong somewhere secure. If you can offer consistency and attention, Milo will be your loyal friend. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
