Sugar Cookie truly lives up to her name—she is the best kind of sweet. This lovely girl adores attention and cuddles and will happily soak up all the love you have to give. She’s great on leash and enjoys her walks, showing a comfortable medium energy level. On a recent day she walked about 4 miles and could’ve gone longer, but she’d also be perfectly content with a more relaxed routine.
Sugar Cookie is potty trained and sleeps quietly in her crate through the night. She’s both treat- and affection-motivated and is already starting to learn “sit,” even though it seems she hasn’t had much prior training—she’s eager to learn and will thrive with gentle guidance.
When meeting other dogs, Sugar Cookie has been shy and tentative at first, but always sweet, curious, and well-mannered. She would likely do best with calmer dog friends who respect her space. She’s also met a couple of kids and was similarly shy but gentle and polite, so she may prefer a home without very young children or one that can help her build confidence at her own pace.
Sugar Cookie does experience some separation anxiety and prefers to be close to her person. When left alone in her crate, she may bark initially, but she settles with time and is otherwise a quiet, non-barker. With patience, consistency, and a loving routine, her confidence will likely continue to grow.
If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate companion who will bond deeply with you and blossom in a calm, supportive home, Sugar Cookie may be your perfect match. 💕

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.
