Foster notes: BATMAN is a fantastic boy who loves to snuggle, greets me at the door with jumps and soft kisses, hasn't made any barks or whines, warms up to guests, is gentle with children, calm indoors, super observant, comfortable in a crate, potty trained, car-friendly (wants to crawl in my lap, but also likes looking out the windows), walks great on leash, good with other dogs, funny and happy.
He's a brave and gentle soul who has been through things, as he doesn't like smelly people, is cautious about taking food from strangers, and doesn't quite know how to play with toys. But he hasn't let his woes dull his shine! He seems younger than 5 - maybe 2-3 years old, because he's just so bouncy and fun, but past the annoying landshark phase. What more could you possibly want in a dog, besides MORE DOG?! He's an easy 25 lbs, including his swiftly wagging tail and expressive ears.
I'm fostering him in the East Bay. So if you're a fantastic person that needs a small, warm, quiet dog to snuggle and walk with, who will pee outside and be great to all the dogs and clean people around you, and who won't steal your food or tear up your stuff, apply to meet BATMAN!"
One of twelve dogs rescued from the Baldwin Park Shelter in Los Angeles to make room for fire victims and evacuees. These were all available for adoption at the Shelter prior to the fires, so owners will not be looking for them. Taking them out was saving their lives so as not to be euthanized early to make room for "fire dogs."
These dogs need time and understanding, safe havens, and lots of love and TLC. Your help and support is appreciated!

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.
