Story
Frankie is destined to make someone's life a lot better. Is it you? Frankie is looking for a person who will give him daily runs, hikes, lots of ball-throwing, training, and a "job" to do -- he'll do it all really well and with great enthusiasm!Frankie was loved in his former home but they knew that he needed more time and energy to devote to his exercise and enrichment than they could offer. Frankie is a lover and adores people almost as much as he adores playing fetch. He is also very fond of playing tug, and he excels at it! Frankie has his obedience basics down and learns fast. Frankie is crate trained and seems to be housetrained. ***ADOPTION FEE PAID*** Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: Tan Weight: 70.8 Age: 4yrs 1mths 3wks

Story
Hi there, I'm Willow! I'm just a puppy, but I've got a big heart. I love to make friends, especially with cats, and I'm always up for a good cuddle. I'm a bit shy at first, but once I get to know you, I'll show you my playful, goofy side. I'm quite smart, too! I love learning new tricks and training keeps me on my toes. Did I mention I'm a hugger? Hugs are my absolute favorite! Despite my playful antics, I can be quite gentle and I promise to make you laugh with my funny little ways. Adopting me means endless love, laughter, and cuddles. I can't wait to meet my forever family! Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: Tan Weight: 44.4 Age: 0yrs 8mths 0wks

Story
Meet Cloud! This happy fluff ball is ready to bring you with her to cloud 9! Her joyous energy is infectious, and you can't help but smile at her excitable nature and propensity for zoomies! Cloud's puppy energy is still very prevalent, leading us to recommend that she got to a home with a more experienced dog owner. She is very trainable and walks very well on a leash, is potty trained, but needs a human that will continue to work with her! She was in foster care where she did very well, but showed possessiveness of toys and other things with her foster dog siblings, so we would not place her in a home with young children, perhaps a home with children 14 years old and older. Cloud enjoys long walks on the beach at sunset and snuggle time. Don`t let the name fool you- she will bring nothing but bright sunny skies to your life! Cloud is looking to be the only cloud in your sunny sky, but wouldn't mind having play dates with other dogs.

Meet Tuck! This boy isn't looking to spend his days watching reruns of The Office and scrolling through Netflix, he needs adventure and the great outdoors. Hiking, beach, parks, you name it, he's ready for it. He is working on fetch, he leaves retrieving the ball up to you. Tuck is ready to find his forever home with a person who loves exploring the outdoors and to build that unconditional love you can't find anywhere else.

Story
Godiva is a friendly, outgoing "Lady". Athletic, though not hyper, she is a great walking or jogging companion, a nice addition, ideally for an adult home who is dog savvy and can provide consistency and encouragement while enjoying time together. Godiva loves people, and just wants to have a good time with her person. She loves to snuggle even more than she likes to leap and play (and she loves that!). Godiva is what we call a "California Brown Dog" a mix of Shepherd, Lab, and other good things! She is a nice size, walks well on leash and is smart and trainable. Not good with chickens.

Story
Buddy is a two-year-old husky mix ready to capture your heart with his unique blend of intelligence, sweetness, and charm. Unlike the stereotypical husky temperament, Buddy is a truly exceptional companion who is eager to learn and please his special person. This handsome fellow has a striking appearance, with his beautiful short coat that's is as soft as a cloud. But it's not just Buddy's looks that will draw you in-it's his remarkable personality that shines through. One of Buddy's most endearing qualities is his gentle nature. He takes treats with the utmost care, never nipping or snatching. This delightful trait demonstrates his understanding and respect for boundaries, making him an absolute pleasure to be around. Buddy's eagerness to learn also sets him apart, as he readily picks up new commands and thrives on mental stimulation. When it comes to leash manners, Buddy is a star pupil. He walks beside you with minimal pulling, making your adventures together an absolute joy. This is a testament to his great training and his desire to please. Whether you're strolling through the park or exploring new trails, Buddy will be right by your side, enjoying every moment of the journey. He would do well in a peaceful and consistent environment, surrounded by loads of affection. This special pup's journey led him to the Milo Foundation Sanctuary, where he found safety and care after being lost. Now, it's our mission to find Buddy the loving forever home he deserves-a place where he can feel secure, cherished, and surrounded by a family that appreciates his unique qualities.
