Milo is a 12-year-old dog who came to rescue after his owner could no longer care for him due to declining health. Unfortunately, Milo himself hadn't seen a vet in quite some time and arrived with painful skin infections, neglected dry eye, and ear issues. Most of this discomfort traces back to untreated chronic conditions, but he's already improving after a full work up and a steady routine of medications, medicated baths, and regular eye drops. He’s a Shih Tzu/Pekingese mix, tipping the scales at 24 lbs—a bit more than he should—so he’ll benefit from someone who can help manage his food and health routine. Milo isn’t a fan of being picked up, but overall he’s easy-going and enjoys the company of gentle dogs. He’s started to brighten up with proper care and seems ready to find someone reliable who won’t let him slip through the cracks again. If you're up for long-term health maintenance and gentle companionship, Milo might be your perfect senior buddy. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
