Story

I need to re-home my handsome 4-year-old, Jax. He has basic command, crate, and potty training and we have had a couple of great years of running, walking, and hiking in rural Vermont. He has had fantastic vet care and a Farmers Dog diet. After driving him to the West Coast, I found that my travel, long hours, and city life are not compatible with his need for companionship and exercise. He is half mini-Aussie, quarter Beagle, quarter Bulldog rescue, and is at his happiest running on leash, racing dogs in a park, and snuggling with anyone. I would love to chat more if you are interested and/or coordinate a meet up!

Pongo is a real ball of energy, with enough enthusiasm to keep you going all day long.

He's always eager to learn new tricks and commands, and with the right training, he's sure to be the top dog in no time. However, it's worth noting that Pongo may need some extra guidance when it comes to being around kids. He's still learning the ropes, but with patience and lots of treats, he'll be the perfect family pet in no time. Please call 707-459-4900 if you would like to meet Pongo.

SHIRO

Australian Shepherd Spitz (Unknown Type, Medium)

Male, 9 yrs 6 mos

Pt. Richmond, CA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

LOCATION: SANCTUARY IN WILLITS, CA. Shiro likes to play with toys, and is very smart. He is a moderately high drive dog like most herding breeds and likes activity on his terms. He likes his walks but his insecurities keep him from being a dog park dog. He bonds heavily with a particular person and sometimes a particular dog - he is IN LOVE with the dog SNOW KITTY at the Milo Sanctuary, and would follow him anywhere. Shiro is wary of strangers but is very loyal to his people and for this reason he can be protective. He needs a very predictable, low stim. home to be successful. Training and building Shiro's confidence would be key to have Shiro flourish. *Previous Notes* 5/20/17 "Shiro is a super mellow dog. He just loves to sleep all day when we are at work. He does not bark or chew anything up. He is potty and house trained and never has had an accident inside the house. He is so furry and soft and has stunningly beautiful blue eyes. Shiro loves to run around and play fetch and catch Frisbee when he is not cuddling next to you. He loves the outdoors but is not a super energetic dog. He will just sleep all day or go for a walk with you. He loves squeaky toys and will just collect them from around the house if you hide them. He is intelligent and treat motivated. He was able to learn how to sit and was learning how to stay in just a few training sessions. *Shiro has probably had a rough past. When the vet examined him, we found a pellet in his x-rays. It is probably from being shot. He bonds very well with women and is more skittish with males. He also tends to get scared of men and tries to guard his female guardian sometimes. He does not like strangers coming up to him and gets protective of his owners. He would do well with experienced owners. We are not sure how he does with kids - Milo suggests a home without children for a myriad of reasons due to his stranger danger. He is insecure and can react poorly when meeting new dogs, but usually settles in and is fine - but can take some work with him and a new dog to get past the initial snapping and jitters, running with his tail tucked. *He needs lots of love, affection, and discipline, which we were unable to provide with our busy lives." *Shiro is not a first time dog, nor a city dog. He has fairly severe stranger danger and a bite record, he has fear based aggression to dogs and people. He needs a predictable environment, and a buddy dog. Interested please email an application to sanctuary@milofoundation.org Thank you for considering adoption of a Milo Foundation Sanctuary dog. Our Sanctuary is where our rescued dogs who have had difficulty in a home in the past, have behavioral issues, or too much energy, or for some, aggression issues with other dogs, or intense stranger danger that make them more difficult to safely and happily live in urban environments. These are not beginner dogs or for the most part nor are they for families with children. IF you are looking for an easy dog to add to your family, we suggest looking at the dogs at our Adoption Center, Milo Pt Richmond. BUT, if you can offer a safe and nurturing home to a dog with some behavioral "quirks" please do send an application today. Thank you.

Pt. Richmond, CA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Pippa is a bright, energetic, young Shepherd–Australian Cattle Dog mix with a sharp mind and a big heart. She loves anything that makes her think—puzzles, games, and activities that let her figure things out on her own. She has plenty of stamina, and would make a fantastic hiking or running buddy. Pippa is playful, friendly, and comfortable around other dogs. She reads their cues well and adjusts her energy to match. She’s still learning her leash manners, but with her treat motivation and quick problem-solving skills, she’s on track to pick things up fast. She already knows “sit” and eagerly looks at her handler for direction. Around humans, she’s affectionate and attentive. She’s also a dream in the car, settling right in and enjoying the ride like a seasoned traveler. If you’re looking for an active, intelligent dog who’s ready to be part of the family, Pippa is a wonderful match.

Story

Get ready for a life in the fast lane of fun and affection! Meet Porsche (female), Lambo, and Hummer, a stunning trio of Australian Shepherd mix siblings engineered for adventure and built for loyalty. As Australian Shepherd mixes, these puppies come with a premium set of features: high-performance energy and brilliant quick-learning minds. True to their herding heritage, they are intelligent and eager to have a job—even if that "job" is mastering tricks, playing fetch, or happily following you around the house. Be prepared for their herding tendencies; they may try to gently herd children, pets, or even your ankles during play, which is best redirected with training. Playtime is enthusiastic and can be mouthy, as they explore the world with their teeth—a behavior that consistent training will gently guide. Owning a puppy of this caliber is a major commitment. Prospective adopters should be ready for: Daily Mental & Physical Conditioning: These are not low-energy pups. They will require dedicated exercise, advanced training, and interactive play every single day to become well-balanced companions. Ongoing Training & Socialization: Their brilliant minds need constant engagement. Positive reinforcement training and continued socialization are non-negotiable for their development. A Capable Home: They would thrive with dog-savvy children ages 10+ who understand respectful play. A home with another playful dog would be a bonus, as they are good with dogs. If you have an active lifestyle, a passion for training, and the dedication to provide an outlet for their remarkable intelligence and energy, you will gain an unparalleled, devoted co-pilot for all of life's journeys.
