Location: London, Ontario Bon Giorno! My name is Milo, but I go by many names at home - my foster dad calls me Pepito (he says I just look like a “Pepito”, whatever that means!) and my foster sis calls me Pookie, cauz, according to her, I just look adorable. I’m a 4 month-old Lab Retriever- Cane Corso male. The Canuck in me gives me my floppy ears and makes me a highly food-motivated cuddly teddy bear, and the Italian (the Cane Corso is an Italian Mastiff breed) gives me my piercing grey-green eyes and “tux” – I have a white front on smart brown fur flecked generously with black all along my back and tail - Mamma Mia! Cosi Bello (so handsome)! They expect me to be a big ‘un when I grow up, but I’m a petite 35lbs (about 17Kg) right now. I have enjoyed being with my foster family, but am ready to live la dolce vita with my forever family! Dad has been training me to be your faithful friend all my life – walking on a leash and potty training are ongoing, although I still do have accidents indoors (cauz I’m a pupster!); he has also taught me to wait for my kibble until he says “OK”, to sit, to stay (on a good day!), and to leave it until released. I’ve also trained my sis to play my favorite game of fetch with me, throwing a ball over and over again until SHE gets tired! I am up to date on all my shots and have been microchipped. They say I’ll need “fixing” later – I wonder what that is?! I am easy-going, mischievous yet loving, and go out of my way to try and meet other doggies and humans when I’m on my walks. I play well with all the dogs I meet, although dad says I can be a “trifle over-enthusiastic”. I do feel a little scared when I meet strangers for the first time, but it’s nothing that a treat (or two, or three) can’t take care of! My unique selling proposition (dad says I gotta market myself) happens to be cuddling – every evening without fail, after supper and my last constitutional, I curl up on the couch with dad, put my head on his lap (or flop on his chest completely), and catch a few Zs. He seems to like that – sorry, change that to LOVE that! Milo’s adoption fee is $850 which includes his vaccines, preventatives, microchip and neuter when he is older.
