My story

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

Meet Willy — your fun-loving, brainy adventure buddy! 💥🐾

Willy is a high-energy pup who’s always ready to go, whether that’s hopping in the car for an outing (he’s great on rides!) or romping around with his dog friends—he does well with other dogs. He’s housetrained and already knows some solid basics like “sit,” “wait,” and “leave it,” especially when food is on the line (treats are his favorite currency 💕).

Willy is affection-motivated and thrives when he has a job to do. He especially loves scent games, like playing “find it” with food, which is a great way to keep him engaged and happy. He’ll do best in a home that enjoys keeping his mind busy with training games, puzzles, and enrichment, as he definitely needs mental stimulation to be his best self. On leash, Willy can be reactive, so he’s looking for an adopter who’s comfortable continuing positive, consistent training to help him succeed.

If you’re an active household looking for a smart, loving dog who’s eager to learn and bond, Willy might just 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.
