A very lovely Pyr gal, a Gentle Giant (though she is just 73 pounds) and she is growing a bit still and still has some puppy energy in her. She found herself in the tiny shelter in Firebaugh, south-west of Merced. Big dogs in small shelters, or frankly any shelter are in peril. This lovely young dog was one they were really wanting to see get out the front door ... alive! Gentle and friendly, a guardian of her realm, a fair and benevolent ruler over her domain and welcoming to all that mean well! A playful and physical companion for other dogs and her people.
Dog friendly and all good things Pyrenees - please know what a Pyr is about, they are NOT Golden Retrievers and have a lot of instinctual habits, are devoted to their people and other animals in their pack, and need ongoing socialization with other dogs around the home if to remain accepting of dog visitors. Great for families and family farms.

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.
