Oakley is an irresistible 28-pound mini cattle dog, who's full of super contagious happy energy, and greets everyone with smiles and kisses. He's eager to please, is dog and people friendly, and loves both wrestling and snuggling. And when he runs it's a thing of beauty -- he flies through the air like Superman!
He's currently living with 3 other dogs of various sizes and learning new things. He's super smart, and has already mastered come, stay, sit and off. Oakley is also doing great with leash training, and is happy to sit at corners and wait for your cue to cross the street. And as a bonus he's fully house trained!
As is common with heelers, Oakley nips and tugs when he plays. He's also exhibited herding tendencies, so he'd probably do best in an adult home or one with older teens.
This petite boy would love an active family to take him on adventures and provide him with further socialization and training!

More about this rescue
The Milo Foundation is an established 501(c)(3) nonprofit, no-kill organization providing an alternative for homeless pets throughout California, through education, adoption services, and providing sanctuary for animals until permanent homes can be found.
Founded in August of 1994, The Milo Foundation Sanctuary is located on two hundred and eighty-three acres in Mendocino County - offering lots of room for the animals to run and play. The Milo Sanctuary animals typically (but not exclusively) are harder to adopt animals and those needing more rural type homes, such as dogs with social or behavioural challenges, feral cats, horses and other farm animals. The Milo Point Richmond Adoption Center is where the majority of our new rescue intake takes place, typically friendly, adoptable cats and dogs, puppies and kittens rescued from shelters where they were facing euthanasia. The Sanctuary is where highly active or reactive dogs can go and have plenty of space, other canine companions (if they are dog friendly) and live in a stress free environment until such time as the right adoption match can be found.
The Milo Sanctuary is what enables Milo to be a No-Kill organization. Milo brings dogs back and forth from the Adoption Center (MPR) to the Sanctuary to give dogs a break from the stresses of the kennel environment and back to MPR later to try again at being adopted. Potential adopters also do come up to the Sanctuary to adopt, by appointment.
