Milo

Meet Milo, he is a 9 year old Corgi/GSD mix. Milo was adopted at an ASPCA when he and his brothers and sisters were surrendered as puppies. He loves to relax and bath in the sun during the spring. In winters loves to just relax in a corner and eat his snacks and fall asleep. Milo is house trained and will wait until he goes outside to potty. He got along with other dogs but he will take time to adjust. We recommend he eats alone as he can get protective of his food, as he takes time to adjust he can eat with other dogs, but he might sneak in a bite or 10 at their bowls. He has an appetite for many dog snacks. With my wife’s passing from cancer I’m heading home back to my home country and I’m unable to take him with me. My kids and friends are unable to take Milo, so we are reaching out to good people out.
