About Milo

Milo is a 72-pound dapper gentleman with a kind heart. He forms strong loving bonds and is proving to be an exceptionally loyal companion. His intelligence shines through as he already knows how to sit and takes treats respectfully. Milo is eager to learn, and he's currently mastering the 'lay down' command while being attentive in his training sessions. For Milo's ideal home, he would thrive with someone experienced in helping under-socialized and anxious dogs. Since arriving at the shelter, his confidence has grown, and a quiet household would be perfect for him. Milo has shown positive behavior with other dogs; however, a few more meet-and-greets will help determine his preferences. He was neutral around a few shelter cats, so proper introductions could work well. If there are children, they should be around 8 and older to match his gentle nature. Milo, who is about two years old and neutered, is ready to bring joy and companionship into a loving home. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
