Hank

Husky Australian Cattle Dog

Male, Adult

El Cerrito, CA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We've loved Hank deeply for the past 6 years. He brought us together during Covid & witnessed us get married in the redwoods. He’s been our adventure buddy on hundreds of hikes & has taught us to be more patient and understanding. Our baby is now mobile & we’ve been working our hardest with Hank to help him accept his younger brother. It's heartbreaking for us to admit, but Hank is very stressed by having a little unpredictable creature around the house & needs a family without young kids. Personality: Hank is easygoing, sweet, & friendly. He loves to sleep in, go for a nice hike, & then sunbathe until the sun sets. Hank spends hours on our fenced front porch calmly watching people, dogs, and kids go by. He only ever barks when delivery folks come up the steps. He loves to be around people and is in great health. Needs: In the past Hank has had isolation anxiety. We’ve worked with a trainer on this and he’s improved *immensely* but needs someone willing to continue this training.

Buddy

Lhasa Apso

Male, Adult

El Cerrito, CA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Buddy is a 20#, 8-yr old male, probably a Lhasa Apso mix, who we adopted from a rescue service in 2020. He is loyal, full of personality, and is dashingly handsome! He is very food motivated. He loves being outside but doesn't want much exercise. He gets along great with small dogs, including our other pup. Buddy has two behavioral challenges. First, he can be defensive. If a stranger tries to pet him he may snap without attempting to retreat or give a warning growl. It takes a while to gain his trust. Second, he has significant separation anxiety. He can be left home alone with our other dog for a few hours but will panic if left by himself for long. Daily fluoxetine seems to help. He also does not tolerate a kennel and does not like to be picked up, but does well on a leash.With family and work changes we will not be able to be home with him as much as he needs, and are looking for a home that will love him and accomodate his needs.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Titan is a big, lovable boy with an even bigger heart. This gentle giant adores attention and affection — he’s happiest when he’s close to his people, soaking up all the love he can get. This lucky boy is enjoying his time in a loving foster home until we can find his right match forever home. Here’s what his fosters have to say about him; “Titan is always up for an adventure, he’s the perfect co-pilot for car rides, errands, or exploring new places. He doesn’t need a fancy outing to have fun — he just wants to be by your side! Titan has been polite and friendly with every dog he’s met while in foster care. While he’s not quite sure how to “play” yet, he’s content to peacefully coexist with his canine companions. (He hasn’t met any cats yet.) He’s making great progress with housetraining and sleeps quietly through the night on his cozy dog bed. Titan was rescued just in time from a local municipal shelter, and he’s shown every day that he’s grateful for his second chance. He’s ready to find a forever family who will give him the love and security he deserves.” If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who will fill your days with love, Titan is your guy!

Story

Tony is a sweet, handsome, goofy, and energetic lovebug! He wants nothing more than to play with his people and other dogs. He seems completely unbothered by the loss of one of his front legs, this boy is ready for action and love! Tony has been a longterm resident, coming to Milo in February of 2025, injured, alone and afraid. He was quickly given the care that he needed, receiving a pricey leg amputation to diminish his paid. Despite the traumas that Tony went through, that we will never know and can probably never imaging, Tony keeps his tail held high not giving up on finding his fuever family. Tony sees every person and dog as a friend and potential playmate. He has learned how to navigate the world with his new body and to walk on a leash with good manners, he is getting really good at "sit". He is also quickly learning that his crate is a happy place and does very well once inside and loves a good chewy toy or treat. Tony would be best in a home with a person/people who will nurture him with lots of love, exercise and continued training; he so badly wants to show that he's the goodest three-legged boy ever! He is extremely food motivated so training should be fun and effective. Tony has endless potential and is ready to show the world that tripods rule! Apply today to meet this wonderful boy!

She would do best with another dog in the home and with no small children or small animals. Frida is a sweetheart, but she scares easily.
