Bunny is a bundle of joy! She came to us very scared but has really blossomed into a happy, though cautious, dog! She would do best in a home without small children as she is very energetic but would love the opportunity to meet you!
A recent outing with a volunteer:
"Bunny was very excited to get out of her kennel, but she was nervous about getting into the car. Staff had to help coax her in. This was her first time meeting us so she was a little bit apprehensive.
When we arrived to the park, she started to warm up and walk with us and my two small dogs. There were moments where she was still a bit nervous, but she walked well on a leash.
She got along fine with my two small dogs. An off leash dog a little bigger than her ran up to us and sniffed her. She did not react, but just sniffed him back.
I think that once Bunny gets to know someone, she is affectionate and really enjoys getting petted. It took about 20 minutes of walking when she decided she did like us. After that, throughout the walk, she put her front paws on us to give us a hug several times. She is very sweet and would make for a wonderful family member."

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.
