About Milo

Hi, I'm Milo. If you want a loyal companion, you won't find anyone more devoted once you have my trust. I was picked up as a stray, and although my owner was found, he decided not to take me back. That didn't break my spirit—I've won over the shelter staff and have formed deep bonds with the people who care for me here. They always sneak me the best treats, and I can't resist a good snack. Once settled in, I'm the type who will stick to you like glue. I handle a leash with zero fuss and enjoy taking things slow on walks, so if you're looking for a reason to stretch your legs more, I'm the pup for it. I've got enough cheerful energy to keep you entertained but know how to relax, too. Plus, I'm fully housebroken and can be trusted in a crate. Homes with other pets or kids aren't my thing, but I'm looking for someone special to connect with. As a Pisces, I'm as loyal and empathetic as they come. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
