My story

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

Meet Cookie 🍪🐾

Cookie is a super sweet, people-loving girl
who forms strong bonds with her humans and truly thrives on affection. She’s affection motivated, enjoys guidance, and is good with corrections, making her a rewarding companion for someone who enjoys building trust and connection. Cookie is also housetrained, which helps make her transition into a home nice and smooth.

At times, Cookie can feel a little insecure and may resource guard her person from other dogs, so she will do best with an adopter who understands this behavior and can provide clear boundaries and reassurance. She prefers slow, thoughtful dog introductions and will benefit from continued training and confidence-building.

Cookie has medium energy and has good leash manners. However she does show some prey drive and may pull when she’s spots a squirrel. She is not good with cats, so a cat-free home is needed.

With patience, consistency, and lots of love, Cookie will be an incredibly loyal companion who just wants to be someone’s special girl. 💛🐶

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.
