This beautiful, sweet and playful boy is looking for a dog-savvy family who can appreciate his love for fun and adventure. He's a big fan of water and loves activities like swimming, trips to the beach or playing near lakes and streams. Of course, any good outdoor activity is much appreciated by Benny! He would do well in a family with children 10 years old and above who are familiar with and respectful of dogs.
Benny's a playful guy with a wrestler playstyle. This can come off a bit strong for some dogs, as he really enjoys roughhousing. With some guidance, and regular socialization with enthusiastic playmates, he can refine his social skills to be a true gentleman. He has shown some resource guarding behaviors in the home, guarding both food and being protective of his "territory". Resource guarding can be managed with training and experience, for example by feeding separately and slowly introducing toys under supervision, as well as setting clear expectations and boundaries for doggy friends entering the home. Due to this, he would most likely do better as an only dog in the home.
He's a very friendly and charismatic fellow who is ready to bring joy and love to a home that can give him the structure, activity and attention he deserves.

More about this rescue
The Milo Foundation is an established 501(c)(3) nonprofit, no-kill organization providing an alternative for homeless pets throughout California, through education, adoption services, and providing sanctuary for animals until permanent homes can be found.
Founded in August of 1994, The Milo Foundation Sanctuary is located on two hundred and eighty-three acres in Mendocino County - offering lots of room for the animals to run and play. The Milo Sanctuary animals typically (but not exclusively) are harder to adopt animals and those needing more rural type homes, such as dogs with social or behavioural challenges, feral cats, horses and other farm animals. The Milo Point Richmond Adoption Center is where the majority of our new rescue intake takes place, typically friendly, adoptable cats and dogs, puppies and kittens rescued from shelters where they were facing euthanasia. The Sanctuary is where highly active or reactive dogs can go and have plenty of space, other canine companions (if they are dog friendly) and live in a stress free environment until such time as the right adoption match can be found.
The Milo Sanctuary is what enables Milo to be a No-Kill organization. Milo brings dogs back and forth from the Adoption Center (MPR) to the Sanctuary to give dogs a break from the stresses of the kennel environment and back to MPR later to try again at being adopted. Potential adopters also do come up to the Sanctuary to adopt, by appointment.
