My story

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

Meet Swiffer! 🐾

Swiffer is a lovable, family-friendly pup with a low-energy lifestyle, making him perfect for a home that enjoys relaxed companionship with a touch of fun. He’s a true social butterfly, happy to meet new friends—both human and canine—and gets along well with other dogs.

Swiffer is affection motivated and responds well to corrections, making training a rewarding experience. While he can be a bit jumpy when excited, his soft mouth and gentle demeanor shine through. He’s also good in the car, so adventures near and far are right up his alley.

If you’re looking for a sweet, easygoing companion who loves people, other dogs, and a little adventure, Swiffer would be thrilled to join your family! 🐶💛

read about what Swiffer's foster has to say about him:
"Swiffer is such an affectionate and easy going guy! He is quick to warm up to new people and seems to be great with all other dogs he has interacted with. He gets along great with my large boxer.
He is not quite housetrained yet when left alone, but does great as long as you are there to take him out frequently. He does bark when left alone so I think he would prefer someone who can be around most of the day to hangout with him.
He also does great in the car and gets very excited to hop in. He prefers to sit on your lap while driving but is working on learning to lay in his bed during the drive and is doing great!
Swiffer is a special guy that is just looking for a loving forever home!"

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.
