My story

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

Eat, Play, Love (especially love!). Orzo is all in. This sweet, happy, enthusiastic and well-behaved boy is wonderful in so many ways. He is a big lap dog. He wants to be with you, next to you or on top of you- all the time. He is a world-class licker, tail-wagger and is always happy. He is very fun, obedient and smart. He likes to play fetch, hike and he will make a great running partner. He loves to chase, tug and wrestle with his foster siblings.

Orzo is a lover, not a fighter so he wouldn't be a good guard dog. His fosters say that he is the sweetest, cutest and best all around dog they have ever known. He is going to make somebody very very happy. He is 100% house-trained and is great in the car as well. He is very athletic and agile and needs a yard where he can run around and play.

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.
