My story

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

Please meet Sprout and read what his foster has to share about him.

Sprout is a happy-go-lucky social butterfly, who gets on amazingly with two and four legged friends alike. He's house-trained and crate-trained, and can be left alone in his crate for a few hours with no problem! He's the perfect mix of border collie and some other more chill breed, making him very smart but able to relax when in the house, snuggling or entertaining himself with toys.

He picks up on new commands very quickly and is extremely eager to please. He's respectful with other dogs, taking cues on when they're happy to play, and leaving them alone when they'd rather not engage. He shares toys and beds beautifully with our resident dog and loves to snuggle with her, so Sprout would love a home with a doggy companion of any size. He has the goofiest run and lays like a total gentleman with his crossed paws - what more could you ask for!

Could Sprout be your newest furry family member? Apply today to connect with his foster!

*This dog has passed the Milo cat room test. This does not guarantee that they will do well in a home setting with your cat. Slow intros are required for the safety of the animals.

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.
