This gentle girl is a bit shy at first and likes to take her time getting to know new people and places. While we don’t know much about her past, it is clear that she is ready to start a new chapter in a forever home where patience, love, and understanding come first.
Dutchess would do best in a calm household without children, or with older children who can respect her need to warm up at her own pace. Once she feels safe, her true personality shines and she becomes very affectionate!
Slow, thoughtful introductions are important for her, especially with other dogs, but with the right approach she can do well. For the person or family willing to give her the time and love she needs, she will blossom into a loyal, loving companion for life.

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.
