Story
Meet Cosmo, a super sweet and snuggly Maltese mix who is ready to find his forever heart and home. If your idea of a perfect day involves a loyal shadow and a professional lap warmer, Cosmo is absolutely the boy for you. Cosmo is an incredibly gentle, well-rounded soul who has already mastered the basics, he is completely house-trained and walks like an absolute dream on a leash. He is a friend to just about everyone he meets and does wonderfully with kids, cats, and other pets. More than anything, he thrives on human companionship. He wants nothing more than to be right by your side, soaking up affection and giving it right back. Because Cosmo loves his humans so deeply, he is a sensitive boy who needs consistency, patience, and a predictable routine to feel secure. He can get a bit anxious when left alone, and he isn't afraid to let you know with some barking and whining when you leave the house. He just misses you! Because of this, his ideal forever home is one where someone is around for a large part of the day to give him the time and reassurance he needs to build his confidence. He would also do wonderfully in a home with another mellow, small dog to keep him company and show him the ropes. If you have a little patience and a lot of love to share, Cosmo will reward you with a lifetime of loyalty and endless cuddles.

Story
Meet Skipper! He is a very sweet loving dog who does take time to adjust to his people and new environments. He likes to go anywhere his people are and is always down for an adventure. He does require another dog in the home as he look at them for comfort and direction. He is use to a pack of dogs and would be happy to have siblings. He has been around a cat and didn't mind her but might chase to play. He is currently in foster with a staff member from Milo and goes on hikes in Tilden with her dogs and he does really well. His recall is a work in progress but with treats he will be by your side. He has the best zoomies and has opened up a lot! She is working on getting him comfortable with the car as he can get a little car sick but he is getting a lot better and working on his confidence building. He loves to play with both people and dogs, play fetch, hide and seek, and more! He has a lot of energy but will do anything to cuddle by your side. If you are looking for an active small dog who will also lay by your side, he is your guy!

Story
Mr. Howell is a really sweet, soft, perfect-sized dog (20 lbs), with grey-brown coloring and an adorable heart shaped patch of white fur on his chest. He’s youthful and playful, but has a chill, low-maintenance personality. He loves toys and is happy to play with his person or entertain himself. He has done very well with female fosters -- coming out of his shell, playing and showing affection. However, men in the household (and our male staff members) still frighten him weeks or even months later. This special boy needs an all female household, preferably with another dog. He needs plenty of time to adjust and lots of help to build his confidence. He will reward your patience with endless love.

Story
Gilligan is a quirky little man who is also very independent. Don’t let the scruffy fur fool you, this little man is a jewel in the rough. Speaking of rough, he and siblings had a rough start in life but he has come so far. Gilligan has a mellow disposition and is dog friendly. His perfect home would include a friendly resident dog. He loves to play and chase is a favorite game for him. Gilligan is treat motivated, which will really help with his ongoing training. He’s a bit shy and may take some time to decompress but that’s to be expected with any rescue critter. Are you ready for a cutie pie like Gilligan?
