My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Riley is a happy, playful, and sweet girl that has so much love to give to a lucky forever family. Riley's love language is definitely treats! She may be shy at first, but when she opens up to you, you'll have a friend that will follow you anywhere. Note from foster: "Riley is a sweet and loving girl who seriously enjoys a nice belly rub. She is very playful and has loads of energy, but also knows how to cuddle up at the end of the day. When it comes to food, she's not picky and licks her bowl clean with no known food allergies. She is obedient on her walks, but can be distracted and leading towards other dogs which we've found a clicker being a valuable solution. Inside the home, Riley likes attention and favors that you stay close by. She has separation anxiety and will roam the home, but is not destructive."

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.
