About Mila

Mila is looking for a new home due to her owner's health challenges. She’s a soon-to-be 3-year-old spayed Great Dane in Austin, TX, with a merle blue coat. She’s up to date on her vaccinations and, most of all, loves nothing more than settling in for a snuggle—whether it’s on the couch or curled up in bed. When she’s not in full cuddle mode, she’ll chase squirrels around the yard or happily join you for walks. On walks, Mila can get reactive if she sees other dogs, and she does not do well with other female dogs, so a home where she’s the only dog would be best. She hasn't been around cats. If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate companion for your family and can offer Mila the attention she craves, she’s ready to meet you. Taurus dogs like Mila are famously loyal and steadfast. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
