Story
Milo is a sweet, 3 year old. Hes great with the kids and he did great at doggy daycare with other dogs. He is mouthy on a leash, but did well off leash with other dogs at the daycare. He does have a lot of energy and loves belly rubs! He needs a tidy home to roam freely in and a family with lots of love to give. A fenced yard would be a good idea too, and always on a leash when walking since he likes to wander off. He is kennel trained, he does really well in one but will shred any blanket put in it. Hes a lovable dog who just needs more company than I can provide him. Most his shots are up to date, I think he only has one that needs updating.
