My story

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

Cookies applicants need to have another sweet and smaller sized dog in home, she needs the playful encouragement of another dog, but is wary of dogs much bigger than she. . A mini-mentor of sorts.

Cookies is a very sweet girl, but on the meek side at the moment, recovering from some trauma in her prior home. But, she is a lovely dog, great size, walks nicely on leash and is dog friendly!

Cookies is in need of love and understanding, patience and nurturing - she is a doll!!

As she comes out of her shell she will be more playful and active.... bit by bit. As of now she is afraid of a lot of commotion so at this time we think best for her to be in a home without young kids running around. She definitely needs a home with a sweet smaller sized dog to help guide her (under 30 pounds) so not considering applications that don't meet this criteria.

She is a perfect 30 lbs and is so deserving of a great home and family - maybe not too much of a crazy teenager scene, more a predictable adult lifestyle and engaging in a sensitive, active lifestyle.

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.
