My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Please meet Frito and read what his foster has to say about him.

-Frito is big love bug who adores people and other dogs, almost as much as bully sticks and snuggles on the couch! He has a calm energy about him and is great around kids of all sizes, but can turn it up a notch when given the chance to run at the dog park or in a big yard.

He visibly smiles when running full speed or getting out his zoomies! He is fantastic in the car and loves going on adventures to the beach, the park, and the local hiking trails, but also curls up for a nap in the back seat if you take him to run errands and need to leave him in the car. He’s highly social and would probably love being in a home with other dog siblings and possibly a dog savvy cat, but would be fine as an only dog too. He has yet to meet a dog at the dog park or on our walks that he didn’t like and doesn’t exhibit any “alpha male” traits.

He would be a great candidate for someone who can bring their dog to work and would likely be the most handsomest boy in the office! Frito is a beautiful boy on the inside and outside, and will warm the hearts of his future family.-

Traits:

- House trained
- Knows how to sit
- Waits before eating
- Curious
- Calm energy
- Very sweet and loving
- Fantastic with dogs and humans
- Unsure of cats (barks at them), but fine with all other animals we see on walks.

*His foster mom will pay for half of his adoption fees.*

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.
