My story

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

Meet Tizzy! This sweet girl is bonded to Maxie and they've landed an amazing foster home together, which has helped us learn more about this pair.

Tizzy and Maxie are super sweet, affectionate and pretty chill dogs. They love to snuggle in the same bed and curl up together to sleep, or seek out a spot next to their humans on the couch. They are gentle with treats and will follow you everywhere you go in the house like little ducklings.

They are dog friendly with other dogs and enjoy running around in the backyard, playing chase with their foster siblings. They are (mostly) potty trained, and are making quick progress, so we expect them to pick this up no problem with some consistency. Their initial encounter with one kid didn't seem to bother them, so they would likely be happy living in a family environment.

They both could use some extra training to improve on their leash manners, but are learning to walk well when wearing harnesses without too much pulling. In just a week, they have learned their names and have great recall, so they have a lot of potential to pick up on training with some love and consistency! Does this pair sound like a fit for you? Please call 707-459-4900 for an appointment to meet them.

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.
