My story

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

Cotton is an absolute people person and pleaser. He has lots of love and kisses for every single person he's met. He is very curious and enthusiastic about meeting new people. He is great with foster's 2 year old neighbor. Completely submissive and tolerant of her sometimes rough hugs and kisses. He is very snuggly and if you're on the couch he wants to be snuggled up on your lap or beside you.

He rides well in the car and after a few firm blocks, he will sleep well on the passenger seat. He enjoys having his nose out the window. Teddy is very perky and happy go lucky in the home ant work and our small driveway/yard.

Cotton is a quick learner when we are home and without distractions. Seems to be semi trained at least. He is fully housebroken. He does not have separation anxiety and has been fine left alone for a couple hours at a time.

Cotton is good with small and mellow dogs, but reacts towards larger dogs, perhaps also partly due to leash reactivity. He is also very food motivated, sometimes even a little food bandit but thanks to his short legs can't reach counters .

All in all he is a sweet boy who means well and just needs continued socialization with dogs and leash training. He would be great for a family with a backyard as he has a good amount of adorable energy.

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.
