My story

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

Meet Starlight — the brightest little spark in the universe! ✨

Starlight is a high-energy, social butterfly who brings sunshine and giggles everywhere she goes. This playful girl loves making friends, especially with other dogs, and would thrive in a home that enjoys activity, fun, and plenty of puppy zoomies. She's a polite canine sibling, and shares toys and loves a game of tug with her foster's resident dog.

She’s still learning her manners, so expect some jumpy greetings and a mouthy playstyle as she figures out the world. She already settling into her wonderful foster home, and as she's decompressing, her manners are improving and she's quick to redirect or take cues on what you'd like her to do. She's doing great with potty training and has mastered the doggy door, and sleeps through the night in her crate. With positive training and consistency, she’ll channel all that enthusiasm into being the amazing companion she’s meant to be. Because of her energetic puppy behaviors, Starlight is best suited for dog-savvy children 10+ who understand playful pups and can join in her training journey. Though she's high energy, she is able to switch off, and loves curling up next to her people, and will in closer for snuggles and affection.

Starlight is ready to sparkle in a home that can keep up with her joyful spirit and help her grow. If you’re looking for a bright, bouncy and affectionate buddy full of love and life, Starlight is waiting! ✨🐾

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.
