Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.If interested in adopting, read about our Adoption Process and complete an Adoption Application on the Mo-Kan website. A Mo-Kan application must be filled out to begin the process. Milo, is a gorgeous black and white, 9 month old boy, that came into rescue after he was found abandoned in a barn. He missed early socialization, so was hesitant around people and new situations. Milo has since learned that people are pretty cool, especially when they have treats! He is slow to warm up, but once he trusts you, you are friends for life. One of his favorite things is to go for a truck ride to the feed store, where he flirts with all the ladies. It has taken him several months, but he will finally roll over for a good belly scratch. Milo does love to cuddle with his foster parents, and curl up for a good movie. He isn’t very comfortable around children, would be best in a home with children over 12. He needs proper introductions to other dogs, best done on neutral ground. He would enjoy having another dog as a buddy, or solo to have his humans to himself. Milo doesn’t play with toys, ignores balls, frisbees, other game toys. He does like to chew on Kongs, especially if they are stuffed with peanut butter, and will collect all of the Kongs in the house, keeping them in a nice pile. He will also collect, but not chew, piles of shoes if he feels he is not getting enough attention. Milo is high energy boy, and will need stimulating exercise for his brain and body to keep him happy, and build his confidence. At his foster home, he loves his walks along the lake where he can sniff, explore, and jump in the water! He loves to run, chase, and play with his foster siblings. He would make a good agility dog, having learned the jump in under five minutes, picked up sitting on the table, and tried the tunnel, but was continually interrupted by one of the other dogs. Milo is one smart boy, and loves to use his brain. He has the potential for obedience, trick training, trail hikes, any fun activity with his people. Milo has been raised near chickens and sheep. He has not offered to chase them, instead watching them as he is walked through the barnyard (on leash). Once he is bored with watching, he returns to his barnyard exploration. He has not been cat tested. This pup must have someone who is familiar with the breed and patient enough to help him continue to develop the confidence he needs. Milo is house trained and crate trained. His leash manners still need work. Recall is great as long as there isn’t something exciting that distracts him. Milo will need on-going obedience work. He is protective of his food bowl and will growl and bark at other dogs, so is best with private dining. If you want a smart, energetic, silly, cute, cuddly, loving pup, look no further than Milo the Wonder Pup. Milo is being fostered in the Holden, MO area.Click here to watch a video of Milo (2023).Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 16, 2024, 4:55 pm
