Story
Meet Max and Milo 💙🐾 These two sweet boys were born on 4/19/2021 and have been loved their whole lives — but their owner is moving and heartbreakingly can’t take them along. Now they’re looking for a new family to love them just as much. Max (18 lbs) and Milo (15 lbs) are Chihuahua/mini poodle mixes with the perfect blend of playful energy and snuggly affection. They’re house trained, crate trained, and great with kids, dogs, and cats — truly the full package. Max is the more outgoing of the pair: a happy, loving little guy who adores being near his person and soaking up all the pets. He’s sensitive about his tail and ears being grabbed, but otherwise he’s easygoing and joyful. Milo is the calmer, more independent brother. He likes to do his own thing, but he’s friendly, gentle, and always happy to be part of the family. Together, they make an incredible duo — bonded by love, personality, and their sweet nature. These boys deserve a soft landing and a forever home that will cherish them. If you’re looking for two small dogs who bring double the love, Max and Milo are ready for their next chapter. 👉 Apply to adopt here: https://www.cognitoforms.com/Okandogs1/DogAdoptionApplication
