My story

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

Meet Hugh, a 3-year-old Doberman with gorgeous floppy ears and a big hearts!

This handsome cuddle bug is the definition of a gentle giant. He loves leaning in close for snuggles (he'll even lean on strangers he just met!), giving sweet kisses, and soaking up all the affection you’re willing to give. Hugh is eager to please and thrives on connection, making him a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal, loving best friend. He's also super treat motivated and has been taking obedience classes with his wonderful foster, where he loves learning new commands and tricks. So far he knows his name, sit, stay and down and he's working on watch (eye contact) and leave it. He walks well on leash and loves being out with his people, happily greeting other dogs and people. He will only pull occasionally if he gets startled by a car, though this only happens on particularly busy streets.

Hugh is great with other dogs and has been gentle and cuddly with the kids he's met, so he could live well in a home with respectful kids too. He enjoys car rides, and would be happiest in a home with a secure yard or where he's able to get out regularly for walks. He's already potty trained and crate trained and sleeps peacefully through the night in his crate.

If you're looking for a soft-hearted, affectionate Doberman who just wants to be by your side, Hugh is ready to meet you.

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.
