My personality

My story

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

Meet Milo!

A lively three-year-old American Pitbull Terrier/German Shepherd mix currently living in Hudsonville, MI, whose sparkly brown coat with charming white accents is just the beginning of his irresistible appeal. With a heart full of love and a tail that never stops wagging, Milo is the perfect blend of athletic energy and soulful snuggles!

Milo is a 50-pound bundle of loyalty who has completed formal training with Off-Leash Training and responds like a champ to commands like "come," "sit," "heel," "place," and "off." He thrives with structure and positivity and is crate trained, house-trained, and well-mannered both indoors and out. Whether you’re heading out for a run or settling in for a cozy cuddle on the couch, Milo is all in—and then some!

Milo is friendly and playful with other dogs, and he thrives in an environment where he can socialize and stretch his legs. A home with a securely fenced yard is important for his energy and happiness. He’s the kind of dog who will follow you from room to room, happily becoming your shadow during the day and your cuddle buddy at night!

However, Milo is not compatible with children. He has shown aggression toward them in the past, so he needs an adult-only home with experienced and attentive caregivers who can provide a calm and consistent environment. He’s not a fan of car rides and gets a bit unsure around stairs, but with patience and gentle encouragement, he’s learning to build confidence in these areas.

His loyalty runs deep, and his love is genuine. Milo adores attention, thrives on human companionship, and is always eager for his next adventure with someone who understands his needs and celebrates his unique personality.

Milo is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to bring joy, loyalty, and a whole lot of heart to the right home. Reach out to adopt@joyfulpets.com to learn more! Are you ready to meet your next best friend in Milo?
