PLEASE READ ENTIRE BIO

11/5/2025 Millie update from her foster mom…

She has been a pleasure and a fairly easy keeper in the house but she keeps getting overlooked on the adoption site. Statistically- she will be harder and harder to adopt out as she loses her adorable “puppy-ness”.

She’s spayed and vaccinated. She’s WICKED SMART and crate trained and comfortable being alone. I have zero concerns about her being an only dog. Her puppy antics are quite amausing but our little deaf Dalmatian girl would really like Millie to have her own house. Her Heeler antics would not go over well with a small child crazy but older kids would be fine 🙂

Millie is a medium energy, Heeler mix puppy that is extremely smart, food motivated and learns VERY quickly. She is super fun to work with and could easily learn some fun tricks! She would love a home that would teach her more commands and provide a lap to sit on at night.

She's very snuggly and has the cutest little snore! She is not a shy dog and loves to play and would do best in a home with larger dogs that are still playful and could be tolerant of her rough puppy antics. Although she is currently living with cats, her foster parents think she may be too much for most cats due to her Heeler breed tendencies to chase.

Millie responds extremely well to positive reinforcement with treats and commands but tends to get upset if she feels threatened SO A HOME WITHOUT YOUNG CHILDREN WOULD BE BEST. She can be quite the "bulldozer" at times. She is housebroken, crate trained and is content to spend alone time in her crate with a chew toy when needed and wouldn’t mind being a solo dog. She has been an absolute joy at her foster home!

If interested, please submit an application. All current pets MUST be up to date on vaccines and spayed/neutered unless there is a medical reason.

Please Note: We are making changes to our Foster to Adopt process. Limited resources to follow up on pending adoptions and delays in processing payments is adding to our financial restrictions. Going forward we will collect payment when the dog is transferred to the potential new owner and will be held for an agreed upon trial time. Exceptions or extended trial times will be considered on a case by case basis and will depend upon the need or situation.
