Story
BIG GIRL. BIG HEART. BIG LOVE TO GIVE. Please meet Millie — and trust us, this beautiful girl is impossible not to love!  At just about 10 months old, Millie is already a stunning 75-pound American Bully/Akita mix with the sweetest smile and a personality that shines. She is confident, fun, affectionate, and has that special “everyone is my friend” kind of energy. Millie came to us from a local shelter, and we can’t help but wonder what happened that landed this amazing girl there. She seems a little confused about why she lost her home, but she hasn’t lost her ability to love. ❤️ She’s ready to turn the page and find the family who will see what we see — a wonderful dog with so much potential. This big girl is looking for a family who understands that great dogs need guidance, exercise, and continued training. Millie is young, strong, and full of life, so she’ll thrive with an active family ready to help her become the best version of herself. A home with older children would be the best fit. Millie has been enjoying pack walks and has been completely unfazed by the other dogs around her. We’re still learning about her dog and cat compatibility, but we’re pretty sure we caught her sneaking a quick “hello kiss” through her kennel door to our resident hunk, Roscoe.  If you’ve been waiting for a big, beautiful, loyal companion with a goofy smile and a heart to match her size… Millie may be your girl.  Let’s help Millie find the forever home she has been waiting for.
