About Milo

Meet Milo, a charming three-year-old Chihuahua weighing just six pounds. Having recently moved from Texas to Brooklyn, he’s gradually adjusting to city life. Milo's curiosity shines through as he eagerly takes treats from his foster’s hand and gets excited when he hears the window open, eager to explore the world outside. He would thrive best in a calm and quiet home where an understanding adopter can help him gain confidence at his own pace. As he continues to settle in, we look forward to sharing more about his emerging personality. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
