My story

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

Meet Santi - this incredible, loving and joyful herdy girl is looking for her forever home!

Her former foster family reports that Santi is an incredibly sweet, smart, and capable dog who has quickly settled into a wonderful companion. She is perfectly house-trained, sleeps quietly in her crate at night, and is one of the quietest dogs you'll ever meet. She's calm and easy-going and has shown no signs of separation anxiety or destructive behaviors.

She's also quickly learning many commands! She has already mastered "sit," "down," "place," and "paw," and is getting better every day at "roll over" and "stay." Her favorite pastimes include playing with the hose in the yard, visiting the beach, and asking for belly rubs. Santi is a true "velcro dog," she loves to be by your side and stays close, making her a loyal companion.

Santi shows some typical herding behaviors, so a home experienced with these would be the perfect fit for her. She will make the perfect, loyal companion to a calm but active home. If that sounds like you, apply today to meet this love bug!

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.
